ah hah! back from the recce trip, and i must say i enjoyed Port Dickson:)

many things to give thanks for, like the room wo rats in the ceiling above.

things that were supposed to be agreed upon with the parties went on fine.

must say its a real eye opener trip for me, to have learnt many things in communications.

so here's to another start and it has made me dream of wanting to do a long road trip, like the millions of students who does it during their gap year. sigh. license please? juz hoping to end the agony this time round.

oh and managing to talk photography with an enthusiast called Mervin:) he takes great studio shots protraits and macro shots. so he was there showing me his diving shots and his trips to eastern europe, like budapest, hungary, austria, slovakia! KAO! beautiful beautiful! and his egypt shots!

sharing all his stories behind the shots as i sat there juz listening, after a karaoke session with boss(gary), another colleague and Mervin:)

started out with juz gary singing (he sings got skill one wor) to me, to the both of us before the other 2 warmed up. and i realised i'm quite a jukebox, i sing such old english songs to the new ones. to the old chinese one. i was challenged to sing "How do i"? almost died but an honest attempt.

so here i am here, lying on the floor mattress, typing on the htc.

i'm juz hoping things to roll out fine. not too sure how i'm gonna fair? but its gonna be a good fight.

bill johnson time:)

Different times of the day, I will desire to listen to different kinds of songs. But when its night, I just love the sound of pianos going on and just vocals, to resonate, and it sounds awesome when I just sit myself in the room, where its silent, with just my headphones, and a nice comfy chair, with the air con on. Its quite a luxury. I don't do it daily, but i am doing it now. AHAHA. That's in the basement office, where daddy's chair is way more comfy then the one in my room. (which reminds me of whether I should place a big fat bean bag into my bed room) My goodness, in swanking red. HOO HOO. SWEE BOH. But then again, its gonna rip 90 dollars away from me. *sobs sobs* So I shall consider whether I do need it, but I think that's gonna lie on the top of my list once I ever get my full time job, pamper myself alittle, just all these lovely cushiony thingies around. They made me feel happy, to

1. Lie on it
2. Flop or just land on it
3. Run and land yourself on it

Brings alot of simple joys. (I do that to my parents bed till today) - Which totally annoys my mom all the time. Being so large and much older now, I still get a great kick, running and jumping right onto the arms of a kings size bed. Too large to miss? Could consider doing it on the beanbag. Tee hee.

Anyways, today's been a day whereby I got up at 1300. Didn't expect myself to be that tired, afterwhich, I had my lunch and watched "Defiance". Its been sitting on the laptop for some time, since I saw the short ad, via the big screen ad, while crossing the road towards Shaw, with Daniel Craig's face all over, its quite hard to miss. Plus, I'm quite into Daniel Craig. *grebit chuckles. (since someone has been using that term alot. and alot, means alot). PFFTS. Can't believe something that i use ever so often *chuckles* have found a new, revamped and cuter version. I'm jealous. But whatevers. *sheepish grins*

Ok so now I'm on House's Soundtrack. Gotta find more tracks from season 4 and 5. I love, somehow the music is soo different but definitely something I will never ever get tired of. Hee hee, that's most important.

And on Defiance, if you have a chance, do go and watch it. To marvel at the human spirit, the courage and faith to do the otherwise, then to just sit and await death. Its living out loud, "better to die trying than to die not trying at all". So yeap yeap, a movie that kind of jolted me by throwing me "what on earth are you living for". Daniel Craig as usual, being the oh so cute him (yes i'm being a girly girl), loveee it. I must say i was quite emotionally sucked into that show. So into it, bleah.

Oh and a passing thought, i just got myself another interview tomorrow morning. As random as getting a call at 930 at night just now, having a little chat and its some camp coordinator position. So kids and fun will be part of the entire thing. Just see how it goes, for now that's about it.

Time to head to my room and groove to house's soundtrack. Nite people.




Awesome day it has been today. 23.03.09 - It is Min Jong oppa's birthday. (Happy Birthday!) But a more felt note would have been my beloved, favourite band, right in front of me. To just be in the stadium today, was something to be thankful for. I wasn't that late, the opening act by whom I don't know, really wasn't that yummy, but when THEY came on, my goodness, we all went mad.

Thumbs up for an awesome crowd, sure we had fun singing along to nearly all the songs and especially to "Life in Technicolor II" to the WHOO OOO OOOOs, and especially during the encore. To get them out, the entire stadium was singing pitch perfect whoo oo oos. Darn good feeling, "Fix You" was pulsating, "Viva La Vida" was deafening, "The Scientist" moved me. Chris Martin being the usual him, especially chatty tonight and cutely hilarious. Will whacked the drums real hard, Guy looks quiet and reserved but course stunning with his new hair, Jonny with his signature riffs and overlays. Chris, thumping through the keys and strumming through the guitar. He actually took the guitar off his shoulders, and just threw it to the ground. I went "OMGOODNESS" but then again, how much does the guitar costs to them? Peanuts really, so its like a martin was just thrown to the floor. AHAHA.

Its better than "X and Y" in comparison to better stage presence, with their lovely do ups of lightings, pictures shown over the sceen, camera angles, and the ballish projector screens =) Which was during the previous concert that I fell in love with Coldplay, and the rest is history. They do real well live, and Chris makes me wanna go play the keys. All I can say this band is a bunch of brillants, both academically and musically. Will sings backup real well =D I only realised his voice during "Fix You" mv, years ago, that i realised the entire band actually does sing accompanying vocals.

It will be a day I'll remember, for such a fun time, especially during the "Mexican wave" with our mobile phones, and singing along sessions. The crowd was just awesome and Coldplay just lived it up. No one was sitting.

And yes, the wallpaper and pictures posted, are taken entirely by me. For keep sake's purposes. Thank you Coldplay, for such an awesome time! And a great crowd and for the Dubby, who paid half of the tixs. ahahhaa! Hope all who were present had a jolly merry good time.

A million thank yous. So many things to be thankful about.

1. That everyone had a great time at the Barrage and it went on without a hitch! Cause someone led it (winks winks) Great job and a great team backing the leader up. AHHAHA.

2. I met ALBERT! Again, this time its time no2. On our way home, just being able to share his vision, when these ppl just run towards their goal. He's doing architecture and when he talks about it, you just sense the love. My respect and kudos, i'm learning =) Press on!

3. Talk session with Uncle Julai / July. A figure of musician that I respect alot in church next to Uncle Tony. A man of such love for music, who lives for music, and cause of music, lives today (course with God's blessings and grace poured out upon him). Sharing his stories and past and experiences, was very fun. Especially the music taming a beast story. I'll remember it in a livetime.

4. Uncle Tony's cute session yesterday, from dinner, to the talk, his simple wisdom, I respect and give kudos, to his prayers. Thank you Uncle Tony =)

For all I can say of, is having a brush with all these passionate people, inspires me. Few hours time I'm going back to my much dreaded part of circuit. Somehow I just seem to clam up everytime I get in, I can do it, yes. But i don't know somehow I just get quite clammy when i think of circuit. Sigh, oh Lord, get me through man, just end this misery of circuits. And just be gone! Be done and get that license. sighs.

Its been a lovely time with all of you, the young people, worship, and a share of older wiser men, of Uncle Julai and Uncle Tony. And the after time with Keith, Timothy, Andrew, Alvin, DT, Chass, Pei Lin, CS is fun thanks to teaming up with all these people. =D

And shopping, walking around with Chass + Pei Lin.

It has so far been a lovely day today just resting. Yesterday was just merely spent orientating myself with my new toy, known as the HTC Touch 3G. Its a pretty baby, and yes, I love it, and I got it at a steal. =) Received pay and this is what I do to reward myself, and its quite a novelty really. Quite suprised at myself that I got a touch screen phone, cause I was quite keen on buttons in a sense, but not wanting to use the typical symbian interface. Not a fan of the iphone, nokia e71 seems fitting, but nope, ahaha i'm just not into Nokia. And hence, the decision with the HTC.

So yesterday was spent inputting softwares into the phone, its a little riced, with a new dial skin and contact book, that works like how the iphone works. Its quite fun really just finding applications for it.

Apart from that, today was just spent with the Dubby, we were just chatting last nite. Then lunch and tv today, its lovely to see how he has come to make decisions, very pleasant suprise no doubt! =D I thought it was gonna take a while but suprisingly no, so today was just a quiet day, enjoying each other's presence, watching an episode of House S5,
on AXN, since i was simply too lazy to set up the comp to output it out on the bravia. Nonetheless, it was a good day, bringing lassie for a walk, while i was walking him to the bus stop as he booked into camp. Then showering lassie (cause she stanked), she's so adorable! How when I was soaping her, I was just looking into her eyes and she was just looking into mine! Those cute moments, sigh. Very lovely, to tell Lassie, she's been loved!

So here I am on my bed, looking at my emails, I've just got an interview on Wednesday, so lets just wait and see. Wondering if I should send more resumes out, I think I should but i'm just lying on my back. Check out the bruise on my leg that has grown into islands, and seriously
looks like I've been abused. AHAHAHA. For the record, its the biggest bruise growing this big. All thanks to having really high steps at the EUNOS BUS INTERCHANGE, and I was just walking down the bus steps, missing the high steps, thinking it was a flat land (Like Bukit Merah Interchange), and the headphones on my head just plopped onto the floor due to the impact. And I went "OHHH MY GOD" not cause I fell, but cause my lovely headphones fell to the floor. Brushed myself up, picked my headphones up, and there was a couple staring at me. AHAHAH. It must have been a funny scene, but yeah. Its horrid, cuts and bruises and now.. The bruise have just seemed to grow. Have no idea if its supposed to have gotten better, or for the worse, but lets wait and watch. How fun!

So for now, its quite a limpy me.

i am proud to have got myself connected to the internet on my psp. that the device works only on wireless b. now i realise why keith said it was fun blogging on this. i'm doing this now all cause working on my comp now reminds me of being at work. typing on it just makes me feel i'm not at home, and sure enough to add a variation to my rest time after work to unwind. I cannot imagine just returning home after work to just eat, sleep and watch tv. Like now, unwinding with The Carpenters.
