happy chinese new year!!

GONG XI FA CAI!!! XIN NIAN KUAI LE!!!

the year of the dog has just begun...frankly speaking, i think it came too soon...because christmas seemed to be just over and hari raya..and now it's the chinese new year..then it's the dry spell...think it will be good to have the chiense new year around mid-feb....but then again...i have no control.....

well...now is the 2nd day of the chinese new year..thus far, everything has been the same to me....having reunion dinner...going to granny house to collect ALL the red packets....going to uncle's house to play mahjong..nothing much actually....maybe next year, it would be different..i might have to go to my boyfriend's house to collect red packets....*laughs* think i'm thinking too much...

but somehow, been feeling very sleepy...on new year's eve, after the dinner, we went to mount faber...am not sure why..but it was quite okay...then the moment i reached home..i bathed and i slept...that's about 1 am and woke up at 12pm the next day...*laughs* then was at uncle's house...dont feel like doing anything but sleep...but when i reached home and bathed...dont feel like sleeping already...*laughs*

going malaysia in a few hour's time..to visit my relatives...actually dont really feel like going...because have to be back on tuesday...quite tiring...but then again, i'm not the driver..hahahaha...anyway, decided to go because my the other granny is rather sick...the doctor had said that almost all her internal organs are spoilt and she may go anytime...so well....enough said.... *sob sob*

oooh..manged to take time off on wednesday...*yeah* more sleeping for me....*yawnz*

neat stuffs

the weekend really flies...i really dont understand why...*sighz* anyway, i think i had quite a good week and weekend...did some pretty neat stuffs....:)

on friday, our company had a recruitment seminar..and this was my first time as part of the recruitment team..it was pretty amazing..seeing how people tried to "impress" you in one way or another because you have a say in whether they will be offered an interview...and it's pretty amazing to see different people of all kinds...and most of them thought i was the HR personnel because i was the one who did all the emailing and all...*faint* but quite sadly, there arent many cute guys..in fact, there arent any....*sighz* after the event, we had our "celebration" at kazbar...pretty interesting..i see how the "normal" colleagues become crazy colleagues...everyone was just ordering beer and food...and almost everyone was smoking a fag...then they ordered this turkish thingy called "sisha" (could be wrong spelling but am lazy to check out the real one) which i had a try on....and i dont taste anything..hahahaha...everyone got pretty high and noisy and we were practically dancing around and swearing at each other...had 1 pint of hoegarder, 4 tequila shots, 2 bailey's shots...and the taxi ride home made me sick...*laughs* but i must say, i truly enjoyed myself...think i've joined the right company...everyone's neat!!!!

on saturday, finally got a chance to check out this cafe which mr chong has been talking about..pretty cosy and nice....there were 6 of us..and we were there for around 2 hours..playing all sorts of board games...hurling abuse at each other...laughing at each other's silly actions...getting high and cranky without the help of alcohol....all in the name of good fun.... some games were pretty interesting..some were not our cup of tea....but i think everyone was enjoying themselves....at least i was...love the dissing of each other part...hahaha..all in the name of fun of course..i dont really mean it when i shouted "bugger" or "bitch" ....although maybe the choice of words were dependent on some truth...*grins*

my dad was back from china...went to pick him up from the airport...pretty much miss him..havent seen him since november 2005...just in time for chinese new year...a true reunion dinner.... :)

bought the pink razor phone for 68 bucks...hahahaha...mum recieved a 100 dollars voucher from starhub...pretty phone to match a pretty girl like me! *laughs*

class picture



on Friday the 13th, we had our annual gathering...*laughs* yes, my secondary 4 class will have an annual gathering...but not everyone will turn up...only certain people will come..but it's good enough...just a short catch up with one another is quite a good experience...

anyway, we met up for a dinner at his nana thai restaurant at far east...which we were given a "private room" which looked and functioned more like a storeroom...and the food was quite nice...and this picture was taken after our meal...2 of them commented that we looked like we were at some JB food center...*laughs* after dinner, we proceeded to chill out at indochine...

kudos must be given to the organizer...he's the guy standing on the extreme right...he's always ever so diligent to call up every single one of us to organize this gathering...without him, i think we wouldnt have met up at all...thanks a million...

basically, i think everyone kinda looked the same...but somehow some of them has become more handsome...*grins* talking about handsome, i think the guy sitting on the extreme right is so damn bloody cute...as i quote the girl sitting next to him : he's got a boyish charms...hahahaha...although another friend commented that he look beng..but well, in my eyes, he's kinda cute and all...tall, dark and handsome...with brains and a good character..where to find such gems? and lo and behold...HE'S NOT ATTACHED!!! *laughs* think it's time for me to strike....*grins*

one of the gains of this outing is that i got to meet the girl sitting beside handsome...she used to sit in front of me and we always talked about all sorts of rubbish and i like talking to her because she will share with you anything under the sun...after O levels, somehow, we simply lost touch and have not seen her around at all..but miraculously she turned up at this gathering and i was really really glad that i got her number...she's one adventurous lady..she dives, she wakeboards, she dances, she's learning how to ride a bike, she clubs, she smokes, etc..hahaha...but she's always with my handsome...they were like lovebirds the whole night...*jealous*

mmm..if one were to look at the 4th girl sitting down from the right...and the 5th guy next to her...frankly spekaing..i thought they look damn compatible!! *laughs* and i think they are rather close...hee hee hee...maybe they are already together? *laughs* but i think it would be good if they actually got together....because i think they have the same interests and can really clinque rather well..and somehow, i thought they got the husband-wife look....*laughs*

most of the guys are still schooling..in their final year of NUS engineering..and i think they are all damn bloody smart..all aiming for 1st class honors...so i guess they will become eligible bachelors in years to come..talking about that...i think handsome was once a CLEO eligible bachelor finalist..*winks*

anyway, i realized some things...ever since secondary school, the guys simply love to irriate me...no matter what i say or do..they simply have some rubbish to rebutt...for example, i said the wrong name to one of my classmates on that night..and for like the next 30 minutes..the rest of the guys kept harping on it..and after which, no matter what i say...they will have something to rebutt and irritate me.....when i go JC...the same things happen to my JC classmates and seniors...and when i started working..the same happens to me with my male collegues...frankly speaking..i dont think i have a "rebuttal" and "irritable" face..but somehow, it just happens....*sighz* but to put it in a nicer way...the guys are concentrating their attention on me! *grins*

ooh, this other guy who was not in the picture brought his girlfriend along..hahahaha..wonder why also..but the girlfriend looked young but behaved like an ah lian..hahahaha...but it's alright..my friend also quite beng...but a beng on clutches..hahahaha...this guy ah.never take good care of his leg...tsk tsk..but anyhow, glad that he got a girl to take care of him....he used to sit beside me in class and i think we were kinda close...a nice guy to talk to....many thought we were together...or rather..i'm interested in him...*laughs* so childish..hahahahaha...but they were good memories....

our next gathering should be in May..and i suggested going MOS..hahahaha...or sentosa...some said KTV...but i am more keen on MOS and Sentosa...wonder if the proposed May outing will actually happen...*smilez*

*blank*

i think i have found my new year resolution...I WANT TO LEARN DIVING... hahahaha...was talking to my neighbor at work..and apparently he's quite active..he dive and rock-climbs...very adventurous..and was talking to him about diving..and he just told me about this cheap course..which cost only SGD222 for a basic course which includes everything...HOW CAN I GIVE IT A MISS?? *grins* but i think my mum will flip if i tell her i want to learn diving..hahahaha...she already flipped when i said i went windsurfing and wakeboarding...but then again, i think she will get use to it...*laughs*

met a friend for lunch today...was really glad that she's enjoying herself very much in her new company with her new colleagues...kinda envious because her company actaully employed 18 of them for this round and they were like a class..always hanging out together and all....going gym, eating, drinking, clubbing etc... anyway, happy for her that's she's happy....and she asked me to go clubbing with her...and i told her this:" but i'm currently in my clubbing rehab and so cannot club till march 2006..also i want to go church...then after church i go teach piano and then go visit granny and then go home " and her reaction was :" hannah, you okay? something is wrong with you!!!! " *laughs* what's wrong with going church and visiting granny? what's wrong with not going clubbing? i guess i always give people the impression that i am a party animal when in fact...I AM NOT!!! now then they know...*winks*

was just wondering....why do some people get all the love and attention they want or they dont want but for me..it seemed kinda hard for me to simply fall in love...i can oogle at guys...i can admire them from afar..i can whatever whatever...but i can NEVER fall in love...frankly speaking...i HAVE NEVER FALLEN IN LOVE...is this a bad thing? am i abnormal? some of my friends simply get attached and detached with a snap of their fingers...some will get girls/guys falling head over heels with them when they didnt even have to lift a finger...some are simply so in love with their partners that makes me wanna get married....*laughs* but for me, i'm still me...still the same old me...nothing, nobody and nowhere...most said my expectations are too hight..some said my social circle is too small..some said the one has not arrived....but are these the real reasons? not that i'm getting desperate..but maybe i am..but i do want to love and be loved...never mind..just some random and senseless thoughts...

suddenly, i remembered something..hahaha...went shopping on tuesday with 3 other people, M, A and A...actually, it was A and A who sort of like arranged to meet while me and M sort of like arranged to meet..and then A asked me along and i asked M along..since we all know each other...anyway, both M and i though that the girl A seems kinda intereste in guy A...during the whole shopping trip, M and i were always together..even when we try to separate ourselves to mingle around..somehow, A and A will alawys end up together...the most classic case: was talking to guy A about previous week's church service..and he only managed to talk 1/4 of it when girl A simply cuts in and change the whole topic....*laughs* and when M and I purposely walked slower to "separate" them...somehow, they will even slow down even more to the extent that M and I got irritaed...*laughs* asked guy A if he's interested..he said : i dont know...ask girl A if she's interested...she said : too holy, different mindsets....*laughs* what is going on here? are they or are they not interested in each other? tsk tsk tsk..make up your minds people....so wishy-washy...totally detest wishy-washiness...

reading back this entry..kinda duhz....but then again, who cares....they are my thoughts..i am rather duhz...unable to write profound and inspiring stuffs and hence i write rubbish...hahahaha..go ahead and call me a bimbo...*smilez*

updates to my life...

it's been quite some time since i last entered an entry...actually not really that long...but it's almost a week...come to think of it..i used to update quite often....at least once every 2 days....it's either i'm plain lazy, too tired to face the computer after facing 2 monitors for 10 hours or my brothers are happily and busily mapling...*sighz*

just attended an ex-colleague's wedding at hilton on sunday... was kinda excited because was able to see some friends... and indeed i saw my beloved melvin..hahahaha...the ever so funny and cute melvin...if he's not stably and happily attached, i would have fallen head over heels with him...*grins* and also, there's the ever s0 hilarious and nice ronald who drives a S13 and has promised to get me a rolex but has yet to do so....*laughs* anyway, had a good catch-up session with them...a few other friends were there...exchanged some small talks...basically, the wedding was rather simply, nothing fanciful...food was quite good...bride was pretty...everything else the same...however, seeing people getting married makes me wanna get married too...haha!

had a very simple weekend as well..because it was forever raining...had to stay at home...because the weather was such a good one to sleep in and the day was simply too wet to go anywhere..nothing much was achieved over the weekend but no regrets...sleeping is also a good way to pass time...*laughs*

went shopping on friday for new year's clothes...actually it's just an excuse for me to spend without feeling guilty...hahahahaha...anyway, only bought a pyjamas from woman's secret...very pretty...but only my family and i have the priviledge to admire it..haha! maybe it's time to organize a slumber party...mmm....but then again, too troublesome..and i dont see any point, i would just sleep anyway...hahahahaha...wanted to buy the pair of levi's jeans which i have been eyeing...tried it on again..and thought it looked fabulous on me because it actually make me look slimmer...*laughs* but the lofty price was holding me back...170 bucks...had several pairs of levi's but they either come free (as presents) or they only cost 50 bucks (bought from other countries)...and so was rather unwilling to spend the 170 bucks...went home and told my mum and mum said :" it's not expensive at all, that's the normal price for a pair of levi's" oh my god!!!! my mum doesnt even own a pair of levi's and she knows the market....mmm...never underestimate AUNTIES!! hahahaha..anyway, have decided...shall get that pair..on my shopping list includes denim skirt, shorts, nice tops, nice bottoms and jackets...acutally it means EVERYTHING...hahahahaha...gosh, now i'm in the shopping mode...

was telling everyone that i'm going into a clubbing retreat...no clubbing for me till March 2006...and everyone gave the same reactions: YA RIGHT! and the same question: WHY? acutually, frankly speaking..i also am not sure why am i telling myself no more partying...maybe i am simply tired..maybe i am simply broke..maybe i am simply bored...BUT i am going to prove to everyone that i can keep to my "vow"....but then ah, Paul Van Dyke coming in Feb 2006 sia...chamz..hahahahaha!! and why do MOS keep sending me invites to their events when i declare that i will not club till march? *argh*

ooh, realized that there's a wakeboarder in my office...frankly speaking, he's not the tall, dark and handsome type...in fact, he's rather short and looked kinda old to me...but am not sure why, everytime i see him, i would start to imagine him in his board shorts and riding behind the speedboat....and am not having dirty thoughts..just could imagine him riding suavely behind the cool boat and doing all sorts of stunts...*sighz* i think if a guy can wakeboard, he is more or less suave when he's riding...but come to thik of it, most of the wakeboarders i know of are rather short...mmm...maybe wakeboarding makes one short? hahahaha..no idea...but anyhow, he's like a cheap thrill to me in office....*laughs*

uninteresting life i have now...period.

first birthday celebration of the year

had my first birthday celebration of the year on the 1st day of 2006...well not mine birthday of course..am not a january baby...but it was the birthday of an old friend...come to think of it...we have been friends since primary school...but we only sort of like hang out together in secondary school and that will be calculated as 12 years!! oh my god...am getting older by the minute....*gasps*

anyway, it is our "tradition" that the birthday girl has to give the rest of the friends a treat and the res tof us will buy a presents for her...it's been 12 years...we are getting older and so ideas for presents are running low...and thus, in the end, we each fork out a sum of money and gave the birthday girl a red packet.. so that she can get whatever she wants...hahahaha...frankly speaking, if someone gave me a red packet, i would most probably spent it on food and hence i would prefer a gift but then again...it's kinda difficult to tell others what i want when what i want is not cheap...*sighz* life is full of choices i must say....

anyway, we went for dinner at this buffet restaurant - pariss xxx xxx xxxx - not very sure of the name...but it was at marina square....it's rather expensive but i must agree that the food is very very fresh..the oyster was so huge that it looked kinda scarry to eat it but it was indeed very fresh...had endless flow of salmon and tuna sashimis...had chocolate fondue...had fruits...had ice-cream...had dim sum...had cakes...so many types of food...i ate till i could swear that i can turn into a ball and explode with the prick of a needle...*laughs*

anyway, because my dear friend is an avid fan of karaoke...we proceeded to k-box after dinner at cineleisure...for me, am not really a fan..because (1) cant sing, and (2) the songs i listen to are not sing-able...can someone tell me...how do one sing "to kill a mocking bird" or "hung-up" or "boulevard of broken dreams"? hahahahaha...but not wanting to be a spoilsport...i joined them at the ktv...and because my friend had 2 groups of friends..she had 2 rooms - a smoking room and a non-smoking room...*laughs* and there's only 3 of us in the non-smoking room...

well because i cannot really sing..and there's not much songs for me to sing...plus one of my friends is an avid fan of jay chow...i literally went to a jay chow's concert...every single song that was played was a jay chow's song...and i could only enjoy the MTV and admire his talent..hahahaha..but i must say...i love 2 of his songs - "yi fu zi ming" and "pa wo hui lai le"....although i cannot sing..but i thought these 2 songs were great...and he look damn handsome in the mtv....and because we were kinda bored, we decided to dedicate hokkien songs and were trying very hard to sing with the correct pronounciation...*laughs* it was damn hilarious...then we tried our hands at very very old soppy love songs by old singers such as teresa teng etc...oh, and one of them could sing JJ's songs so well..that i was mesmerized by her...if only she's a man...*laughs*

we hung around at k-box till like 2 plus when my eyelids are so damn heavy that i could fall asleep while standing....bade farewell to the smoking room friends...and took a cab home...darn, i didnt drive because i thought there would be alcohol...*laughs* but sadly, all the alchohol was in the smoking room and i dont know the smoking room friends that well...got the urge to drink sia..but must abstain...cannot afford to have belly because of drinking....*laughs* but then again a belly is already bulging...hahahaha..whatever!

generally it's a good outing..except for one bad thing...one of my friends was in a rather jumpy mood...she's someone i'm not very close to in the group...in fact i dont really talk to her and all...and that day i tried talking to her..she seemed so jumpy and agitated...learnt that she's under a lot of stressed from work...well..not that i care that she's stressful..but must she be so jumpy when i took the initiative to talk to her? hahahaha..no hard feelings and not feeling offended...just making some remarks...anyway, let's hope she can get out of the stress soon enough...although not that i give a care....*grins*

i ended 2005 with a blast and 2006 will be a year of manifestation!

happy new year everyone!! 2006 will be a good year....it will be the best year thus far in my 24 years on earth...it's a year of manifestations!!!! *smilez*

well, i ended my 2005 with a blast because.....because....because.....I FINALLY STEPPED INTO MINISTRY OF SOUND!!! was very worried that i couldnt get in on new year's eve because it's a new club with hype and all....was so afriad that i was getting paranoid...hahahahaha...and was so desperate that i prayed to my dear God to let me into the club....and lo and behold, my God is a good God...he answered my prayer! a friend informed me about the pre-sale tickets and i called my friend who happened to be there and she got the tickets for us!! when i arrived at clarke quay at 8pm....the queue was so freaking long that i was sure if i didnt have the pre-sale tickets..i would NEVER queue for it...it stretched all the way to the river...but because GOD IS GOOD i got the pre-sale tickets and the queue was rather short and i only had to queued 30 minutes or so and i was IN THE DAMN CLUB!!! and i must say this: MOS ROCKS!!! hahahaha

2006 will be a good year because i said it to be so..hahahaha...as per my pastor...God has said that this year, ALL THE GOOD THINGS WILL HAPPEN AND IT WILL HAPPEN FAST...*laughs* this is freaking good sia....cannot imagine all the good things that will happen to me in 2006...this is simply amazing...and on the first day of new year...the first activity i did was to GO CHURCH...yeah....because i woke up at 2pm...and my service is 4pm...and during the service....i think God spoke to me....hahahahaha....i heard this: DONT WORRY, YOU WILL BE BLESSED... i heard this distinctly a few times...maybe i was wrong but anyhow, i know 2006 will be a year of manifestation!! i cannot explain the joy and happiness i'm feeling inside but all i know is it's going to be a damn good year!! *smilez*

debrief of my new year resolutions

the year is almost ending....and i realized i did set a list of new year resolutions at the beginning of this year...here's my list of resolution:

1. To go on a diet and lose 5kg: aiyoh, this is my EVERY YEAR'S resolution and every year i never keep them...sighz..this is bad sia...next year must ensure that i lose at least 3 kg...hahahaha...since my uncle bought me the uzap from osim..i shall use it diligently and see if i can lose any weight....*laughs* i must eat lesser and exercise more...i try ah....must really really try....

2. To have more financial control: i actually develop a spreadsheet which tracks my monthly expenses..then i lost that spreadsheet when i change company...*mutter mutter* now i have to start all over again...but never mind, shall start a new one for 2006... but i must say, i am quite a spendthrift....my next year's resolution is to spend less and save more....*laughs*

3. To get a boyfriend: hahahahaha...this is something not within my control sia....not that i was actively seeking...but then i was keeping my doors open in my own opinion...but somehow, i have no suitors at all sia...so damn sad...the guys that i actually met were kinda duhz...and the guys i like are all taken!!! *sighz* but no fears, i'm sure God will truly provide..think i must pray harder...hahahaha...but most people are surprised that i dont have a boyfriend...hahahahahahaha...but it's true..I DONT HAVE A BOYFRIEND!!!

4. To attend church regularly: for the first half year, i thought i did attend rather regularly..but then somehow, my schedule changes...then i couldnt wake up for the earlier service and for a while i wasnt actively attending church...very horribe right..but i have decided...no matter what, i have to attend the 11am service...heeheehee

sighz..it seemed that i never keep any of my new year resolutions for 2005....but then again...do i look like i would keep them? *laughs* BUT i did 2 things which i have always wanted....(1) i got myself a tattoo and (2) i went windsurfing and wakeboarding!! *laughs*

I like Narnia...



another very hyped-up movie of the year...when i watched the trailers in theatres, i've fallen in love with it....because there's a lion...the lion is one of my favorite animal...i simply love lions...i thought they look really majestic with their manes and all....so i told princess mel that i MUST watch this show and made her promise to watch it with me...hahaha! anyway, manage to catch this on christmas day....

i must say, i kinda enjoy this movie...although there were some moments of boredom....the graphics were fantastic...there were so many talking animals...talking horses, talking beavers, talking wolves....so interesting...and there were all kinds of mystical creatures...giants, unicorns, centuars, etc...and so much snow and mountains...very niceeee...

basically, there were 4 characters...and i love the eldest brother - peter...he's so cute when he's seriously at war...he's responsible and brave...the elder sister - susan...not really cute, can be quite irritating at times but alright lah....the younger brother - edmund..hated him, forever so selfish and so stupid, a traitor...irritating brat....the youngest sister - lucy..a very cute girl...nothing much to say about the 4 humans of the show...am not really into them...

for me....i looooooooooove aslan - the lion...he's so handsome...so nice....so wise....and he's used to signify Jesus... aslan sacrificed himself for one of the traitors...just like how Jesus sacrificed himself for us....and when they actually killed aslan, he was whipped and they shaved off his mane..just like how Jesus was whipped and stripped naked...at those scenes, i couldnt help but sob because it really reminds me of Jesus and i felt so sad....

however, i am still unsure of a scene in the movie...i seriously am still puzzled how did the queen die? did aslan kill her? or did aslan spare her? why did aslan ask peter if the war is over? mmm...very vague that portion... and also, once the 4 kids are out of narnia, who's going to rule narnia? another 4 kids? so what? the whole story will repeat again with another 4 kids? mmm.....but no fear, i've gotten the books and am going to read them!! *yeah*

wonder if the other books will be produced into films....ooh...am looking forward to 2 movies in 2006....The Da Vinci Code and Mission Impossible 3....Toms are the main leads for these 2 shows...but am only interested in the latter tom...as for the former tom...dont know why he's casted as the main lead....

Merry Christmas

*singing* Oh holy night...the stars are shining brightly...it is the night of our dear savior's birth...now long lay the world in sin and error pining...till he appeared and the soul feel its worth...*sighz* this is my favorite christmas carol.....so nice....=)

anyway, MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS to all!!!! hope that all of you have a blessed christmas.....

well...as usual, i spend my christmas eve with my family...every year, my family will just gather for a dinner and exchange presents...last year, we had our party in sentosa and we actually danced till 1am and exchanged our presents in our hotel rooms..so it's the dancing christmas...this year, we had our dinner at jumbo and because we booked one of the private room, we had KTV and so this year was the KTV christmas....*smilez*

everyone took turns to sing!! it was my FIRST TIME hearing my mum sing...and my uncle...hahahaha...although they cannot sing like super stars..but i wouldnt say they suck....well, KTV happens to be one of my auntie's favorite hobby and so she was happily singing away...all her old melodies...the food was great...we had prawns, fish, 2 plates of crabs, fried rice, dessert, shark's fins and a cold dish....was so full and satisfied....*smilez* after dinner, we exchanged presents....and it was done in a haphazard way because we sang too much and the restaurant was closing....*laughs* and after the gift exchange, my family "refused" to go home...*laughs* we proceeded to coffee bean and sat around and chit-chatted and drank coffee..although all of us were very full...anyway, finally we all got home around 1am...

last year, i bought presents for all my uncles and aunties....7 presents because i have 3 aunties and 4 uncles...this year, i change my "strategy"...i only bought presents for my cousins.....3 presents because i only have 3 cousins..and they were kids and i just had to ponder over what toys to buy....unlike buying gifts for adults, i have to ponder WHAT and WHERE TO BUY...a big headache...and after this change of strategy, not only did i save $$$ but also lost lesser hair....*laughs* man, i'm such a cheapo...mmm...feeling guilty...because i got presents from all my uncles and aunties...think i shall buy for all next year....*laughs*

ooh, these are the presents i got from everyone:
  1. red packets = $300 (good!)
  2. 2 perfumes: burberry and clinque (yeah!)
  3. a set of books: The Chronicles of Narnia (cool!)
  4. a handphone holder (amazing, have the intention of getting one)
  5. a wallet (nice!)
  6. u-zap (fantastic, can use that to zap way the fats around my huge tummy!)
  7. 3 candles: 2 perfumed ones and 1 with a holder that contains my name
  8. wired piano decorative piece

i loooooooooooove all my presents and THANK YOU EVERYONE!!! actually i thought i might get a digicam for christmas...but dont have...but my uncle PROMISED to get me one for chinese new year....*laughs*

(1) People
the people here are simply great..everyone's so friendly...although it may seemed that they are over-friendly..but i reckon they are really friendly..everyone's so willing to help me...in every other way...even to the point of telling me there are grapes in the pantry and even telling me where the bowls are located....awwww...i am so touched....everyone's so nice....actually it's everyone on my team...the other side...they looked kinda arrogant..but i dont really care..hahahaha...

(2) Pantry
my new office has the BEST pantry of the whole universe...it's amazing the things they maintain in that pantry...you name it...the pantry has it...apple juice, orange juice, chocolate milk, pure milk, carrot juice, vegetable juice, soya bean drink, mineral water, coffee, tea, green tea, diet coke, etc etc...slurrrrp...and there's potato chips, biscuits, cereals, cup noodles, sweets, marshmallows, apples, bananas, grapes, etc etc....slurrrrp...i think when i'm trying to save on my pennies...the pantry will be of a great help...*laughs* the pantry was so famous that after i reached home on my first day..my brother asked me this question.."how's the pantry?" duhz...what a question!!!! talking about the pantry, had chocolate milk this morning..and had tummy ache which caused me to poo a few times...hahaha...good way to shed the pounds? *grins*

(3) Work
basically, i havent really started any work...for these 2 days...i spent my time reading things...getting myself familiarize with the system...because it's a totally different system...shadowing my team mates...nothing much here and there..there were moments of boredom...and i almost dozed off at my desk..hahaha..but i had to look busy..because everyone was really busy...*grins* had a conference call with the team today...and my manager said that he doesnt want me to plunge too fast into the job....he wants to ensure that i get myself settled down and familiarize myself...which he said will take at least 1 month...*laughs* not a bad idea..and this manager is going to personally train me in whatever i'm going to do...cool...

thus far, everything has been good..except that i got to wake up at 6am every morning....*yawnz* my mum asked me..." do you have the feeling that your previous job is better? " and with much confidence i answered her..." NO WAY! " *grins*

all i want for christmas is MOS...

MOS - my latest indulgence...not exactly indulgence..but my latest interest..not really also..cannot put words to it...but this is something i fairly desire...but alas, was pissed by it last friday...so damn bloody pissed that nothing could make me unpissed...

it was my first time queuing willingly to enter a place....for 3 freaking hours..i stood with the crowd...beads of pespiration were rolling non-stop from my whatever...it was so damn bloody hot and stuffy..but for the sake of MOS....i willingly queued with my pals...the queue seemed to be moving...but it was a false impression...many with priority tickets were also queuing and when they were called to enter..the queue shortened..and they only let a few from my queue in..if any at all....in the end, they told us they are stopping the queue..and gave me a discount card...so damn pissed...i queued from 915 to 1215..and all i got was the discount card...and to make matters worse...had a friend inside who fed me with smses such as.."this is an awesome place"..."this is freaking huge"...."the drinks are cheap and strong"..."mos rocks"..etc...*mutter mutter*

anyhow, saw a few "celebrities"...if you want to call them that....saw glenn ong...he was tall and not bad-looking..didnt now he was lanky....saw bernard tan or was it bernard lee or bernand xxx..anyway, he's the radio dont know what....he was with glenda chong...nothing much to comment...saw tanya chua..not too bad...that's about it..hahahaha...very few in fact...but i must say, there were many nice cars...saw quite a number of bmws, a few ferraris, a few lamborghinis, mercedes cls, etc...

after the "sorry, better luck next time" by the people of mos....me and pals head over to club momo...i wanted to go home...as my mood was so totally spoilt..but becaues another friend just arrived..we decided to try our luck at momo...no queue...everything was normal..rather crowded inside...but alas, i was really in no mood to party anymore....all the disappointment and pissnes..just kills all my dancing and drinking cells...*mutter mutter* went off after a while...sighz...

actually recieved an sms from mos saying that it's ladies retro night on wednesday...but i think i shall give it a miss...what if i went and i couldnt get in again...cannot afford to stay up so late...need to wake up damn bloody early to work the next day....think i better go mos when the hype dies down...but then again....I CANNOT WAIT!!! *laughs*

now am making an appeal....whoever has access to mos...please message me...please email me...and try to contact me in whatever methods you can....i will pledge allegience to you...and your wish is my command...*laughs* think a friend of mine might have the chance to gain membership....think i better start sucking up to him...*laughs* oh my god...where's all my integrity and all....*sighz*

ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS MOS!!!!!!!

genting highlands



isnt this view beautiful? okay maybe my photography skills are not that fantastic...but i thought it looks like we are somwhere up above the clouds....so romantic...just imagine i have a three carat diamond ring and i can put my hand up against the sky and it's like one of the stars...*laughs* anyway, this was taken from my hotel room...went genting with my whole family - 16 of us over the weekend...quite enjoyable but yet...there were moments of unhappiness...*shrugs*

(1) First cable-car ride: this trip up is my first cable-car ride up...havent taken the cable-car for a long time...i think the last time was in 1995 when i went to HK...*laughs* anyway, i think taking the cable-car is much faster and more fun...usually, my dad will drive us up...and i will get all giddy...breathtaking scenery of the tropical forest....although frankly speaking....i dont really know how to appreciate flora and fauna...*laughs*



(2) finally had the chance to take the rides...bought the outdoor theme park tickets for 34 ringgits...but only managed to play 2 rides..*sighz* the queue is so damn bloody long...took 1 1/2 hour to queue for each ride...and the ride only lasted for 10 seconds...damn bloody sianz...but the rides are very very exciting...was screaming all the way...not out of fear..but out of fun..because when i'm really afraid..i wouldnt be able to scream...*laughs* took it with my auntie and my bro's girlfriend...as the phobia for height runs in the males of my family...these 2 rides gave me the feeling of being thrown off the seats...which is fantastic...*laughs* too bad didnt have the chance to ride on other rides...

this is the rollercoaster which has a weird name...

not sure what you call this..but this is damn fun!!!

(3) because there are 16 of us...it's rather difficult to coordinate our meals...everyone has different opinions on what to eat and where to eat..but most of the time...uncle b will decide for us...not that his decision is not good..but somehow, he's rather stingy...he will order very little food and complained that we are all gluttons...but for goodness sake...as what my mum always say...there are 16 of us..and each plate only have 4 pieces...obviously 2 plates are NOT ENOUGH... and if we didnt follow his "instructions" on what to eat...he will be damn bloody pissed and complained that the food is horrible and it's so damn bloody expensive...frankly speaking...it's spoiling EVERYONE's mood...bloody hell...my mum always say..." he's too full of himself..making himself irksome.. " which i agree to a certain extent!! anyway, here's a picture taken after one of our meal...we made the napkins into rabbits...*laughs*



(4) oh went gambling at the casinos...*grins* and played at the table instead of my usual jackpot...but i tagged along with my uncle s and used his money...*laughs* he had 300 ringgits worth of chips and we lost ALL OF IT...actually was on a winning streak..but then i guess our luck went out...but it's alright..my uncle s said it's ONLY 300 ringgits...actually he's right..to him..it's only SGD150...this amount is nothing to him...given that he will buy his wife a LV bag almost every month...*jealous* but uncle j is really lucky..he won 1000 plus ringgits at his first try... so in other words, this trip to genting is FREE.... lady luck loves him...but my uncle b took his 1k and refused to let him continue playing...*laughs*

(5) one thing sad is that we did not manage to take a family photo...everytime we wanted to take picture..uncle b will be very anti-social...if not...we stopped for a while..uncle b will get irritated and say we are wasting time...if we dily-daly, uncle b will simply say we are a bunch of ignorant idiots...put is simply, he's simply the spoilt-sport...everything he said and suggested equate to FUN...and everything else equte to SILLY...this is so damn irritating...and if i were to rebutt him..he would tell my granny that i have become very rude and blah blah blah....*sighz* actually didnt take much pictures of people....just took rubbishy pictures...so sad...*sob sob*

in summary, i think we spent 50% of the time on the coach...20% of the time in the hotel room and 30% of the time loitering around...i wouldnt say that i totally enjoyed myself...but i wouldnt say that i totally hated this trip...i think i would say...it can be better...but anyhow, it's an enjoyable experience...


this is my naughty cousin, always hate it when i touch him....he's so damn bloody cute..couldnt resist not to show him off to people....when i took this picture..i went..."Keafe....1, 2,3" and he simply posed and smiled for me...

bye bye..

a group of colleagues organized a farewell lunch for me...my last day is next thursday, 15 Dec 05 and this group of collegues gave me atreat at this buffet restaurant - vienna, in united square...there was a wide variety of food....free flow of sashimis,meat, soup, dim sum, prawns, oysters, etc etc...so niceee...food was good, fellowship was good..and we took some pictures....


clockwise: ronald, me, jill, melissa and yi lin...


clockwise: ronald, me, yong soon, melissa and yi lin...

can anyone spot the difference? *laughs* basically, we change the photographer!! *laughs* kinda funny, forgotten to get someone to take picture for the 6 of us....think we were too happily laughing away at each other...we were chatting about movies, books...about ronald owing me a rolex...about yi lin giving us a treat because she's late...about me spreading the flu to everyone...mmm...we are all not young anymore, but it seemed that our conversation is kinda childish...*laughs*

after lunch, ronald went home as he's going to sentosa to moontan...and mr lee went off to his swimming session..dry swimming...*laughs* guys...they really do funny and interesting things right...then it's shopping time for us ladies....we proceeded to novean square....because yi lin wanted to buy shoes...and she did buy 2 pairs...and i bought 1 pair...*laughs* couldnt resist the temptation....and then we proceeded to the addidas shop...and my dear friends bought me this:



this is my VERY FIRST pair of sneakers...so pretty right...just like meee......*grins* this pair of sneakers came in at the right time....am going genting this weekend..would need this pair...and then my new job allows me to wear casual on fridays...and so now i can wear this pair!!! *yeah* need to get more white tops to go with my sneakers...*laughs* sighz..this is how i shop and buy more and more and more....tsk tsk...

and next on my list is a pair of levi's jeans...tried on 3 pairs...and one of them fitted me so snugly and beautifully...but i didnt buy it because i need to look around more...heh heh heh... then i tried this princess cut version of levi's jeans...before i tried, the salesgirl said that not everyone can wear this pair as there's some gathers at the knees area and if the legs are not long enough...the gathers will not be at the knees...and lo and behold!! my knees fall right into the gathers...which concluded..i have long legs and please call me PRINCESS HANNAH...*laughs*

small chicken



this little thing here seemed to be the most popular now... kids, parents, adults seem to be very very keen about this...especially after the cute trailer or rather advertisement on switching off all mobiles..where chicken little dance to the most irritating song of the season...*laughs*

anyway, got free tickets to catch the movie today...courtesy of the bank that never sleeps...*grins* and comes with free popcorn, drink and a lanyard...although i would prefer nacho with cheese...because am not really a big fan of popcorn...anyway, the theatre is at GV grand...and it's damn huge...amazing...

although this little thing seemed to be quite cute..but i didnt have a good impression of the movie because of channelnewsasia...their movie reviewers didnt not give very good reviews..so i wasnt expecting too much...frankly speaking, it's not fantastic..but it's not as bad as how the reviewrs had graded it...the graphics are really really really really good...as for the storyline...it's rather lame but entertaining...at least it got the the children laughing non-stop although there were times..when i laughed..NO ONE was laughing...but when eveyone was laughing..i kinda dont catch the joke...*laughs* for example, there was this scene when one of the duck shouted something like..." we are being invaded, just like war of the worlds"..this i found it rather hillarious..but NO ONE was laughing...and when chicken little did funny stunts like using soda bottles to help him to "fly"...all the kids laughed and clapped...*shrugs* guess the kid is in is a rather mature one...*laughs*

talking about chicken, why is it chicken little? this thing is supposed to be a male..shouldnt it be cock little? *laughs* but then again..cock little sounds a bit rude in some sense...and funnily, i didnt see any horses in the movie...maybe horses are too big...difficult to fit into the neighborhood...the songs of the shows are kinda nice...i likeee...and the pig loves to sing...so cuteeeeeee.....

however, my heart still belongs to harry...although am rather disappointed with the movie, but harry is still my favorite kid...*smilez*

what a flirt...

from the title...it seems like i'm going to bitch about another woman whom i hated and flirted with the guy whom i admired right? *laughs* WRONG ... this entry is dedicated to none other than ME, MYSELF and I... *laughs*

today is a happy day..my botak, who went back to australia a month ago, is in Singapore these few days...not because of me...if it's because of me...i would have married him and moved to sdyney....*laughs*anyway, here's our short but flirty conversation:

botak: hi hannah do u know the sg helpdesk number?
me: hi xxx...
me: yes...6418 9200...=)
botak: thanks mate
me:anytime..
me: you coming to changi?
botak: hope so still working out, will try for tomorrow
me: okay..hope to see you..

the season of giving...

inspired by another friend's blog about what she wants for christmas...gives me the desire to come up with a wish list as well...i have so many wishes..so many till i am not sure what i really want...

i think a digicam will be a good christmas present...i have always longed to have one..but i have never gotten down to getting one for myself...yeah..guess i'm cheapo...although digicam is sort of like "out of fashion" but am still hoping for someone to get me that as a present...but i think it's highly likely that i will get one this christmas from my uncle...*laughs*

then if possible, i wouldnt mind a diamond pendent as a gift...*laughs* am not asking for a one-carat one..but i think if someone's willing to give me that..i wouldnt really mind...actually i'm not really a jewellery person..but i thought it would be nice to have a diamond pendent...thought i would look good with it...*laughs* actually would prefer one from cartier or tiffany's...*grins*

well...if someone were to buy me a tag heur..that would be great...i always wanted an expensive watch...a branded and expensive watch...currently all my watches are from swatch..and the most expensive is a burberry's watch..last year's christmas present from my uncle..*smilez* i loooooove that watch but i wouldnt mind a tag heur, rolex, AP, etc...along that line ah...

ooh...perfume will make me happy...suddenly i loooooooove perfume...am not sure why..but i thought it's nice to smell nice...i think i like men with nice smell....especially the after-bath smell...makes me happy...i dotn like the flowery smell...too flowery for me..i prefer the citrus smell...nice and fresh...i think i like fresh perfume...not too strong....i hate this estee lauder perfume which my mum has...makes me puke...so i think it would be nice to recieve a perfume as a christmas present...

ooh...another item which i always wanted....i-desire...*laughs* the massage chair from OSIM...always asked princess mel to get one for me..but she simply refused..i think she hates me...*laughs* although i'm not really a massage person..but i thought it would be nice ot have a massage chair at home....to relax the muscles and to take away the fatigue...but i think it's not exactly cheap..but if someone were to buy for me..it will not only benefit me but my whole family..isnt that good...one item for everyone? *laughs*

looking back..i think i have just listed an impossible wish list...hahaha...as compared to my friend who only wanted a mirro, a portable radio and a partition...i think i am asking for the sky....*laughs* but then again....I DARE TO DREAM....who knows...some rich and handsome admirer or mine might just stumble onto my page and decided to fulfil my wishes during the season of giving....*laughs*

*pissed*

today's a rainy day...but i wasnt feeling gloomy...was not a bad day...everything seemed alright..not exactly good..but not exactly bad...i think it was a normal day...until a bitch spoilt it all...this is what happen:

bitch: eh..i need your help ah...
me: yes...what can i do for you?
bitch: i need to burn some documents into cds for the customers...
me: ooh...here's the cd-burner... (some of our machines do not have cd-writer..and so we bought a portable external cd-writer for people who needs to burn and doenst have a cd-writer)
bitch: eh..i dont want this..... (then she made a disgusted face)
me: (looking blur) huh? then what you want me to do?
bitch: eh..can you help me burn those documents?
me: of course cannot...you think i very free ah....

after the rejection, this bitch simply walked off...and went back to her seat....fucking hell sia...who does she think she is...puh-leese...she is just a financial analyst...and i am NOT her secretary.....so what if the portable cd-writer is with me? so what if i'm using the cd-writer to backup my data....who gives her the right to ask me to do such stuffs? so what if i'm in the backoffice team...does it mean that i have to help her to do ALL ADMIN stuffs? frankly speaking..i was EXTREMELY PISSED!!!

all along i never thought she was a nice lady..she always gave me this very arrogant look....as if she's damn bloody gorgeous..which in reality is not the case...she does have a s0-so figure and a nich height...but her complexion sucks and her face is not pleasant-looking....as for her working efficiency..i have no comment as i never worked with her...but all along i tried to be friendly and always crapped with her...but this is the FIRST AND LAST STRAW... piece of shit sia!!!

okay..maybe one might think i'm very petty..but the one thing that i hated most is being used by other people...i am willing to help but i hate it when one exploit my kindness for stupidity and take me for granted...this is something which i totally detest it....anyway, whatever! this is just me..either take it or leave...*smilez*

mmm...disappointing harry potter



this is the latest movie to catch recently...much hype has been built around this movie...and being an avid fan of harry..i was also extremely excited about this movie...and llike all the harry potter movies that i have caught...it's free plus free lunch @ marche and free arcade!! *laughs*

lunch at marche was really fufilling..because it's free...i tend to order the more expensive stuffs... if i were to go on my own, i would order a plate of plain rosti..but because it's free...i ordered rosti with sausages...*laughs* if i were to go on my own, i would have order a plate of banana crepe..but because it's free..i ordered banana crepe with ice-cream...if i were to go on my own, i might not have ordered any drinks..but because it's free..i ordered like 3 root beers and 2 barcadi breezers....*laughs* i'm such a cheapo..such a typical cheapo singaporean!!

anyway, after lunch, we proceeded to the theatre for the movie...and when we arrived..there were people sitting on our seats..and they claimed that others have claimed their seats and it's free seatings..and so we claimed other people's seats..and then when the movie has only started, another group of people approached us and said we claimed their seats..and so we went back to the group who claimed our seats..and while all these commotion was going on...the main culprits were asking us to quieten down because the show had started...WTF!!! by the way, the main culprits who first claimed other people's seats are a family of ang-mohs...fucking ang-mohs..they think they ang-mohs big fuck sia...they simply refused to move and even said that we were ridiculous...so the big group of us...8 of us simply sat at the steps and hence, given no choice, the fucking ang-mohs had to move back to their seats...and that was then we realized why they refused to take their original seats...they were given the 2nd row!!! *laughs* actually i wasnt really involved in this "arguement" as i was so damn engrossed in the movie...

but i must say...the movie is not as good as i thought it would be...not because everyone has grown up..but i thought the movie was not exactly correct...the main nitty-gritty was left out while some scenes were expanded unnecessary...like for example, i was hoping to see four duelling sessions with the dragons..but only harry's session was shown and it was totally way-off the book...and the dragons were supposed to be in four different colors...which was why i was excited to see them...but disappointed...and i dont know why...it seemed to me that hermione was in love with harry but in the book that's not the case....not sure why did the director protray it this way..kinda duhz....

as for the actors and characters..somehow, as the boys grow...all their hair grow..and they simply refused to cut...*yucks* all of them had messy and unkept hair...flap flap..very ah beng...and harry's hair was always messy in an ugly manner..but i must say...emma watson (herminone) has really blossomed into a pretty lass..reminds me of nicole kidman...*laughs* and harry's love interest cho chang was not bad..but i think i could do a better job....*laughs* and i hate the new dumbledore...he seemed smaller and not so dignified...unlike the the late richard harris ( hope i got the name right...*grins*) this dumbledore seemed like the grouchy old man from the cartoon "courage, the cowardly dog"...this dumbledore actually "screamed" at harry...so duhz...this dumbledore looked dumb and nitwitted...to me..dumbledore should be wise and kind...but anyhow, professor moody was not too bad...quite a good protrayal...

anyhow, am going to re-read the book again...*laughs* actually frankly speaking..i think the first movie was the best...not that the other 3 was lousy..but somehow, i guess the first movie satisfy my imagination the most...anyhow, i am still a big fan of harry potter and friends....daniel radcliffe was kinda cute...*winks*
