Upon Joanne's world.

i have yet to stop

2011-11-22T00:20:00.000-08:00

writing.
but i have since moved back to writing physically in my faithful diary.
life has been colourful, with much insights to the word LIFE.
be it the colours, or the greys, i hang on still to God for if He was to bring me to it, He will bring me through it!
AMEN!

only she does it so

2011-09-05T21:36:00.000-07:00

books her wedding banquet 1 half month before she actually gets hitched;

flies back to Singapore the night before the ROM;

flies back immediately the night after the ROM;

flies back 6 days before her wedding;

settles her gown fitting 5 days before her wedding;

and finally, flies back the morning after her wedding night.

okays it is byebye WHITEberry & hello to BLACKberry

2011-09-04T11:29:00.000-07:00

my very adorable friend

2011-09-02T16:17:00.000-07:00

by the name of kenney khoo had actually bought me mooncakes.

Aint sure if it was for the festive or was it in exchange for his box of chocs or,

was it his true good intentions?

i'd choose to believe it's the latter! hehs.

HAHA, whichever the case, it was really sweet of him to get me my ALL TIME FAVOURITE durian flavour.

Those mooncakes from cookie museum was AWESOMMMME!

thank you oinkkk :D

wednesday came

2011-08-24T00:01:00.000-07:00

and i didnt get to see you.
wont deny im very upset.

oh.d whole family is away in M'sia.
that didnt make things good to begin with.

SIGH.

we've got a date

2011-08-17T14:10:00.000-07:00

next wednesday!!
like FINALLY.....!!
xoxo, hehe

today i gave #1 a book

2011-08-15T06:24:00.000-07:00

Prayer for Woman.
and in it i wrote "i know things have not been well, but hey! i know things will be OKAY!"

God, I pray in Jesus name that You'd lead #1 into Your good right hand; lead her into Your good Faith of Life.

ironically

2011-08-13T23:19:00.000-07:00

have been hanging out on a higher frequency with bern, seemingly like the good ol' days.
nope nope;
im pulling my emotions back, holding my sanity upright.
yet again, i dont deny the comfort his presence gave.
guess it is afterall the farmilarity.

to have this pair of listening ears

2011-08-07T22:14:00.000-07:00

was more than i could ask for.
you have no idea how your presence allowed a room for my outpour.
your words though few, but of most comfort.
my ugly shits, you took them in.
thank you YOU, kenney khoo.

july was full of attacks for the heart

2011-08-02T00:02:00.000-07:00

and still i continue thanking God for whatever that have came my way.
it is no doubt the way of life, the journey of growing up.
yup?
:)

hasnt been blogging since almost a month back cos i dont think that i would want to leave grey days in this beautiful hopeful blog...
it's a stuck-in-office day.
jen has left this afternoon with C to phuket.
you know the feeling of waiting?
how how this sucks totally?
and this is how im feeling now.
as much as i wannt put in high hopes & deceive myself into believing that everything will be okay, everything will be good.
yet on the other hand, all else show otherwise.

i aint in any good mood, and hasnt been in so since some weeks back.
dont ask me what has happened cos too much has happened & i cannot be bothered to narrate anything to anybody.
oh, except for Him, our good God who listens Faithfully & intently to every single details.

life,it goes on, the daily activities still have to be done.
im thankful for my morning runs that help kickstart my day.
honestly i know there's nothing that me or anyone of us can do but just be there for her.
it could be a long battle in months to come, but hey, we will all survive through it!
im thankful to God for keeping my sanity, for without it, i'd probably be one gloomy grumpy woman.

everyday i hold in strong Faith in Him that Today will be a good day;
i remember Him,my Lord of Strength.
I go to Him, beholding His Faith, and i am restored by His Love.
Glory to God!
AMEN.

i

eat happy

2011-07-12T00:22:00.000-07:00

it gets me all happy shopping for sweet treats for oink dearest :)
i just realized come 16th July, we'd have known each other for a year.
woah, time, you really fly.

so happy

2011-07-08T22:00:00.000-07:00

that we are talking again.

after 2 weeks of absence,i dont deny the second of awkwardness/shyness the moment that i saw him.
then again, it was a total heave of relief after the ice was broke.
hey oink "i'd never want to lose you as a friend okay?"
:)
you are the special friend i'd want to keep;
always&ever.

so much has happened the past weeks i think i ought to just take 1 step back, get a hold of myself and my thoughts.

the worst that could have happened

2011-06-17T07:29:00.000-07:00

happened last night.
always, i believe that everything/happening has been mapped out & planned for by God.
there's always a reason He has, for ALL the happenings in our life.

i choose to see things on the positive note. i choose to believe things happened for the better, for it is at the darkest hour of the night that the sun will rise soon.
many things are beyond our control, but we get to choose how we want to react to the situations.
you can choose cry over spilled milk, or we get up and make ourselves another glass of it.
hey, people dont say "make a lemonade out of a lemon" for nuts yar?

dear #1, hang in there, be strong, stand tall, & walk forth brave!

cant dcny how i am deeply affected, but for her, i choose to face her with my smiles & laughters.
we will all walk through this with you!

stand on your own feet

2011-05-31T00:00:00.000-07:00

always remember so.

your world must have came to a standstill the night before;
it must have crumbled internally.
your heart must have ached like it was stabbed a thousand and one times;
your tear glands must have dried up.
you must have a hundred question marks in your head;
you must have felt foolish, betrayed, angry, disappointed.

but hey, you are not alone.
never will you be.
we are all here for you, and we will walk you through!

end note: what is but love?
what is but a relationship?
just how much s is the word "love" valued in the eyes of people in modern times.
how much do you really mean when you tell someone "i love you"?
in my eyes, i see it as "i love you with comma but i love myself more"

something

2011-05-21T00:00:00.000-07:00

loses its meaning when we ask for it, or is too spoken off too often.
you know, strangely somehow or rather, everytime i get to really seat down in peace in front of my laptop and start typing away on blogger.com are the times im supposed to be rushing my report.
HAH.

randomly last night bern talked to me and really, it was just like nothing ever changed.
and just this afternoon we hung out.
something changed for the better and that was having him to picked me & sending me home.
the day i walked out of us was the day i thought these would never have happened.
we talkedwhatnots in the car, we had lunch, we shopped 313, we stonedcreamery.
everything seemed like nothing ever happened before.
i wont deny how our memories come flashing.
it was almost one year of memories that we are talking about, and it was almost daily 365days memories.
i couldnt have just shuffed it away right?
but hey, you left me too heavy a baggage then.
and i have walked away from the old you&me.

friday night

2011-05-20T00:32:00.000-07:00

and who'd believe joanne ling to be home before 10pm?
HAHA.
still,this is a actual fact right now!

i miss oink.
very much.
i want to hang out with him, do nothing but enjoy our favourite drinks at our usual place, talk nothing but enjoy each other's company.
hey you, kenney khoo!!!

okays,endure jo!!
just 3 more report, 3 more powerpoints, 3 more papers, and you are a graduate!!!!

simply, i count my blessings; i do.

2011-04-22T22:22:00.000-07:00

God, i thank you for these angels.

hi world

2011-04-19T03:27:00.000-07:00

we are already reaching the end of one-third 2011.
woah. time , you sure do fly.
honestly i have been so busy day-in day-out with work, with assignments, with weekend classes, so much so i think i have really lost track of time.
pretty much cannot recall what exactly i have been busy with either. HAH.
anyhows, let us just scroll through the pictorials for now.

i CHOPPED OFF the locks!!

finally took a breather at MBS

spent a good day with mummy,fatty,baby, meimei & 7th aunt;

dingtaifung, TWG, Min Jiang @Goodwood Park-

HEY!! life has been thus far good to be & i thank God for his ever-abundant unrelenting love&blessings on me!!

xoxo.

i was very thankful we met up last night

2011-04-12T21:52:00.000-07:00

very very gladful you brought me out for some happy drinks -booze&caffe machiato. :) always, your presence lifts up my spirit. hey oink, thank you. thank you for the concern. more than even thankful that you'd have read the letter, and still dropped me a text today to check me out. clearly i know you still keep me as a friend. kenney khoo, i dont know what else i may say. i guess whatever that i wanna voice out are all written down word for word in the 6-pages lengthy letter. this time round, im glad i have grown. at least, im behaving so.

last night

2011-04-09T15:39:00.000-07:00

i bumped into bern and i cannot deny the flood of memories crashing my mind wave by wave. i'd thought i would be drowned in the tsunami of memories! had to try so hard to act as if nothing happened before, but yeah, everyone here knows that to prevent a wave from crashing the shore is mission impossible. yes, my heart still skips a beat when i see him. havent i already gotten over him? tell me it is the unspoken, unfinished conclusioon that leaves me walking with this emotion baggauge; tell me it is so, and nothing more. you tapped my shoulder and gave me that smile i once adore. you asked me how i was and told me you had alot to tell me about. LIFE.

penny for thought

2011-03-29T00:00:00.000-07:00

okays, two thoughts probably. one- kenney khoo stumped me, with his description of my personality. it hurts, it did. didnt like the resistant & I-NEED-TO-DEFEND-FOR-MYSELF feel. BOOYOU. two- stranger A approached me whilst i was in studio warming myself up. very very honoured to have this guy plucked up enough courage to ignore the presence of the combat's instructor to come introduce himself to me, going on how he has been noticing me and would not want to miss the opportunity to talk to me. yes, while in my most CHUI morning look and in my sports' attire, in a very awkward pose. HAHA. LIFE, you never know what it brings you.

again

2011-03-12T00:05:00.000-08:00

i reach a cross junction of my journey.
this time, should i carry on going straight or should i deviate from the course?
regional sales post, should i take it up?
very very puzzled.
this time, it feels a thousand more kilos weighing on the shoulders.
even cough syrup aint causing me to knock out at nights.
now, that is how much this issue is weighing on my mind.
1st June, i ought to make a choice.
4th july, it should be the day i start on the new track.
God, please would you give me a direction.

i may be sick but i am alive

2011-03-11T17:18:00.000-08:00

as the world shook with trembles and shock over the 8.9magnitude that has hit Japan, i thank God here i am, with my loved ones, safe & sound on our tiny island.
small a dot we may be on the globe, but at least we are all gathered good and intact.
i maybe running high on temperature, i maybe sneezing my nose away, i maybe coughing my lungs out, but really, i am nothing but grateful to be breathing, still.
let us all pray for japan.
the images, they are not farfeteched from the scenes of those in ENDOFTHEWORLD films.
really. we should all embrace life for every second of the time which we are still breathing.

best love

2011-03-07T05:11:00.000-08:00

In Jesus' we pray, AMEN!

today i had the strangest incident, thus far in my 22 almost 23 years of life

2011-01-17T21:25:00.000-08:00

HAHA.
indeed.
laughs&roll;like "HURR??you mean such incident does happen in real life?"
i guess it is such unexpected strange affinity that each of us come across at some point in our life.
life, you never know what it brings you!

i kissed year 2010 goodbye, allowing the good memories to keep me through 2011

2011-01-07T21:49:00.000-08:00

2010 i turned twenty-two ( OMGGGGG!!im turning 23 in three months!!?!!!!!)

and i had one of the most surprised week of birthday celebrations from all my loved ones :))

this year, i'd have an add-on in my arms - lil' kate! :))

party @ KPO

the super surprise by the 07 on my actual :))

dinner with the girls and the cake surprise!! :))

year 2010, i flew on the plane thrice.

i think i might have broken my record thus far.

February's BANGKOK with woman love where we ateshopped mad!

June's HONGKONG trip with my pretty where we too shoppedmad, peak-dined and partied!

and July's HONGKONG/SHENZHEN with buddy.

2010, we cousins bonded and had two gatherings which we'd never done so in years before.

2010, i caught up with longlost oldtime friends from AMKPS graduation batch year 2000.

exactly a decade since we had probably last met.

2010, i took a visit to night safari, my 2nd trip since year 1999.

HAHA.

and i went on a cablecar ride which i cannot even remember the last i sat in it.

2010, it came and left quick, leaving me wondering what exactly have i accomplished in that year itself.

i would say, year 2010 was the year in which i went through ALOT, seen ALOT, and most importantly, established an even closer relationship with our dear Heavenly Father.

year 2010, i got myself enrolled for Edith Cowan Universitiy Part-time Bachelor of Communications programme.

2010, i tendered my resignation and almost joined Singtel but thankfully&gladfully stayed on Renus, with a substantial pay increment.

and since then, my life cycle has been pretty much routined and packed, leaving me not much me-time.

2010, i finally let go of jude, stopped harbouring thoughts of reunion;

i foolishly trapped myself into the game of heart with ter but gladfully walked out of it promptly;

i thought i'd finally fell for bern, only to find my trust being tossed away, leaving me a walled-up heart&soul.

that was it, for the matters of the hearts' affairs.

year 2010, i ended with my usual 07' clique (minus 3 persons, yes including my very woman dearest!!).

with a simple get-together peaceful countdown @beermarket.

p/s i was already semi drunk from the 3pm alcohol intake.

HAHA.

this year, twenty eleven, i gave myself a simple resolution -

to love myself more, to love my body&health more, to be healthier, and more conscious.

that will start from my already implemented monday-friday morning gym session, plus lotsa tonic consumption, beauty care too!

23, aint that old, but surely i really got to learn to take care of my body, my facial, my health.

work wise, i seek to see a higher satisfaction from it, i seek to gain a deeper foothold in the O&G sector.

for the first period of my life ever since i entered POLY, i have been in&out of r/s, with different guys in my life periodically.

dylan, ivan, marcus, will, kenneth, jude, terence, bernard.

proudly, i, glad to say i have escaped from those nonsense and stayed very single since bern's incident dated almost two months back.

savouring every bit of this carefree life, with no men to bother about.

nah nah, im not giving up hope on romance, i have yet to stop falling in love.

no i have not.

it is just that i have really plucked up all courage to stay single till i found this man worthy my time/efforts.

i dont want to waste my time on someone who is just not appreciative of me, i dont want to, least not anymore.

still, live;laugh;love, i abide by it.

Let 2011 be a year of God's dropping fatness and let us all indulge in His abundance fatness of blessings!!!

Isaiah 55:2-3

2 Why spend your money on food that does not give you strength/.Why pay for food that does you no good?Listen to me, and you will eat what is good. You will enjoy the finest food.3"Come to me with your ears wide open.Listen and you will find life. I will make a covenant with you. I will give you all the unfailing love I promised to David."

december, it came and is almost gone

2010-12-30T00:59:00.000-08:00

festive month, month of giving, month of love;

December, my favourite month of the year.

it came quick and we are left with barely 24hours of this beautiful month as im typing this entry down at 145am. HAHA!

this year, this particular December, many things happened.

in fact, both good & bad.

glady, the majority of which was the good :)

and again, i thank God for His ever gracious blessings in my life, for everything.

in fact, this year, this particular December, i partied and feasted more than i ever had in my 22 years of life.

truly, it is the most memorable December thus far!

tonight, i only want to share this joy of the newborn in our family- KATE WONG.

look at this chubby lil' thing.

as i held her in my arms and looked at her, it dwelled upon to me a deeper meaning of LIFE.

it gave me yet another gentle reminder of the fragility of human being.

most importantly, it gave me a good shakening on my soul to spend more time with my family in this coming year, to embrace deeper for my most beloved ones.

this time round, i shall leave the entailing of my 2010 for the first entry of 2011.
meanwhile, i sign off wishing all of you a bountiful 2011 ahead!
and jo loves you!
:))

the week flew!

2010-12-09T00:46:00.000-08:00

literally monday,tuesday, wednesday and today zipped by without my much realization.
what a glee hehs cos' im on leave tomorrow especially for CHRISTMAS SHOPPING!!!!
much anticipated day!!!!! :))
with the week packed with 2 presentations & a 12-paged report, i thought time wasnt really enough to spare!!
the day breaks, and the night sets in pretty fast.
day by day, it is once again the weekend!
woah! i thought i was grasping for air this evening whilst rushing for my sales report due for monday's meeting.
too much on my mind, too lil' time to spare for the nonsense.
im good, im fine.
really :)

end note-
i was really happy inside out for you when you told me you passed your driving.
so does that denote the end of us?
que sara sara.

and now i wannt do it up so bad, party up so bad!!
like superstar, i rock.

day by day i will be stronger

2010-12-04T06:34:00.000-08:00

着么说，也昰一年的感情。
不昰说放手就能大方地放。

no one ever said letting go was easy, but i'd guess staying on would be tougher.
a truth exposed, a trust broken, a heart fallen, some tears shed;
no i can't hide, i can't pretend im fine.
cos im not.
at least, not yet.

God, He will heal the beaten soul and lift me up in His victorious right hand.
always, i'd shine in His glory & almightyness!

入睡前，我还昰会带着問呺 “其实你心里有有没有我？”

you threw us away today

2010-12-02T21:44:00.000-08:00

you got me lashing at you early in the day;
then you got me speechless.
today you made me cry my heart out in the morning, afternoon and night;
so many times i lost track.
exhaustion is all im feeling right now;
sleep is all i want.
foolish was i;
wanting to run away & hide in my own corner.
enlightened i got;
and here i still stand strong.

yes i may be crestfallen, i may have my heart broken into bits&pieces today, but im not crushed.
never will i be.
sad as all truth may be, you threw us away today.
reason&cause, unknown.

1 phone call

2010-11-30T05:51:00.000-08:00

and miraculously i feel US again;
just like it was.
was i over-indulged in those devilish thoughts?
HAHA!
:) :)

"sleep early and start afrest tmr. it'll be a beta tmr"

2010-11-30T00:08:00.000-08:00

and indeed i woke up with a smile this morning.
had a good sweatout on the threadmill, and im feeling whoooolalala!!
oink, take care and i miss you.

yes, i miss talking nonsense with you.

after a week

2010-11-29T05:02:00.000-08:00

they said absence made the hearts fonder;
yet so it does not seem to apply in our case.
i thought i'd miss you;
i guess it was the habitual routine that upset my mornings.
it did not come so apparent;
till today you BBMed me & we met for breakfast.
you went on yadah-ring;
i was in my world, miles away.
seemingly you had, once again, fenced me up in my lil' world.
a barrier between you & me;
a time space created.
it's sad, so sad.
it's a sad sad situation.

could we talk it over?
is this all that's left, after the year we have had?
with an unknown cause.
AMAZING.
indeed.

over a week

2010-11-28T00:00:00.000-08:00

im smiling from ear to ear

2010-11-20T01:17:00.000-08:00

cos kenny drove down FORTY darn clique to&fro his place and sent me to the Mac less than 2km to&fro my place so i could get caramel macchiato and caramel balls.
that silly thought i had starved myself the night.
i appreciate the effort, and i felt really S-P-O-I-L-T tonight.
honestly i havent felt this way for a longggggg time since i dont know when.
probably woman's right-
"u mean u forgot how it feels to be spoilt by a man whom u have strong feelings for?"

even if it was a mere 45minutes of togetherness;
it was really your effort & concern i felt.
thank you oink dearest!

tonight im gonna be a stingray in my sleep....

jb was simply GOOD

2010-11-17T05:28:00.000-08:00

1145am we left his house and by 1pm we were already well-parked in CitySquare.
6pm we left Sentosa and 616pm we have already cleared Singapore Customs.
Thank God Praise Lord for blessing us such smooth journey in&out JohorBahru!
hehs.
surely we are blessed kids!
AMENS!

it has been long since we held hands...
and that brief moments sent both the good&wierd emotions down me.
yet i dont deny i adore the way you turned back and stretch out to find a grab on my hand.
boy oh bern, you always pull a surprise in my face.
thank you for the fun today my dear boy!
the shoppings&eating!

xoxo.

starry starry night

2010-11-13T04:00:00.000-08:00

a very inpromtu meetup with kenny roger tonight.
1040pm we were texting and 1140pm he was at my carpark to pick me.
supposed 3-in-1 macdonald's happy meal became a bottle of expensive pinot noir @ ECP.
what a beautiful night it was in the chilly weather sipping a bottle of tasteful red and enjoying each other's company.
we talked,found out a lil' more about each other.
treated him to mac's caramel machiato after the wine and we almost wanted to go on an insane idea of nightcycling!
HAHA.
those close enough knows that i rarely allow guys to send me home, lest talk about sending me up to my door step.
but, i allowed him to do so.
hehs.

thank you for making me feel like a protected princess tonight.;
thank you for the date;
thank you for the wonderful 4hours.
thank you my oink.

never really figured out you cared

2010-11-09T11:28:00.000-08:00

till tonight i left the pub without bidding you goodbye & you actually bother to text and check if im home.
thank you.
and what took me aback was when wee gin questioned "so how is my bernard treating you?" & when he insisted "i know who's jo's boyfriend"
little it may be to others; but these, they matter to me.

they say love

2010-11-07T00:56:00.000-07:00

is feeling contented even if it was minutes spent together.
wednesday & thursday morning we had breakkie out of our usual breakfast areas;
friday you were away from me;
saturday i picked you from the airport and we had dinner, nothing but pure catching-up pleasures;
and today we met up for inpromtu BALLYshoes-shopping for you.
you scooped my waist round your fingers and gave me one goodbye kiss.

i just wanna keep these good memories.

AMKPS love

2010-11-06T07:03:00.000-07:00

haha caught up with yuki(AGAIN) and this time round with the addition of yuhui & melissa.
gee has it been almost a decade since we last saw each other?!!!
since year 2000 when we graduated from AMKPS??
werent' those days seem just so yesterday?
we havent changed much, have we?
we have all grown, indeed though.

waiting for PHOTOS!!!
and hopefully more gatherings, with probably MORE people?
hehs.

kenny said

2010-11-05T07:01:00.000-07:00

"btw thank you for coming back last night"
HAHA. silly oink.
hey, i MISS-ed you.

and probably we just lose out on the dates.

over the weekend

2010-10-24T00:22:00.000-07:00

i boiled (after three weeks of absence at the 老地方) on friday night with jennyvonnis & the guys (okays missing my kennyroger)!

my tired legs gave ways to those heels and i had to call my night short just after one.

HAHA.

and satudary morning i'd almost refused to wake up when my alarm went off at 10am.

sorry PBR.

HAHA.

still, made it....er....like one hour after the supposed arranged 1130am brunch.

nowadays d 07 clique seriously should take a check on their punctuality lah!!!

HAHA!

MadForGarlic was good!

good food, great service!

snowy garlic pizza that's OHSOOOOYUMSS!

my pbr love, i wish you a blessed birthday & here's one to health&happiness, oh and GOOD academic grades! :))

LOVE YOU MANY MANY!

andand i'd actually came home to crash in bed allllll d way since 6ish till this morning 7?!! mummy thought that i had fever cos' apparently she came in my room to check on my temperature after her mahjong session! HOW CUTE my mummy silly.

HAHA.
no, theortically i woke up at almost 10pm, comtemplated if i should wake up to eat my dinner but decided that i should continue my sleep.HAHA!

and the next i know, my 7am alarm went off hehs.errr, but i eventually woke up only 845am!

yes, that is how deprived of sleep my body is! hehs.

today, i worked.

and met bern for dinner. drove down to airport T1 for paradise inn which was pretty NOT satisfying cos i thought i could have feast-crab while it turned out the the INN's outlets dont serve crabs!!!

so i grumbled on for icecream treat and we ended up at scoop for art situated in EastCoastPark library (where the old starbucks' resided).

darkchoco was OHSO goood!hehs. groceriesshopped in Giant @Parkway before sending d car for a wash.

and thank you boy for d lil' things you did today -you de-boned the fish for me after i told you i had once choked on fish bones before; you insisted on combing the other half of Giant to find me iced-cokelight when i said it was okay; you scolded me for carrying all the grocerybags while you were making payment ; you spotted my deflated tyres and immediately went to pump them up at the kiosk ; you indulged me on my cravings (like you always do most of the times).

hey boy, those may be lil'what nots, but honestly downright truth to be spoken, it could happen to anyone of out there, but it happened between you&me. we'd say nothing explicit about us, but i enjoy our times together ; you&your nonsense (you & your insane REDUZE diet!HAHA) ; we & our laughters.

i felt the need to remember our days&times and so, this entry :)

we are going to KL!

2010-10-18T07:23:00.000-07:00

first overseas' trip together;
first 3d2n, just us three.
YEAY OH!!
till march 2011!!
heh hehs.

thank you for organizing & taking the sole effort to settle the booking and whatnots bestbest.
WAHAHAH!
if not, nothing will ever materialize!!

i have you now, and am afraid to lose you later

2010-10-16T00:34:00.000-07:00

after some BBmessages and i found myself at bern's place slightly an hour after.

it must have been the power of love(or a day's ABSENCE i'd call it) that gave me the motivation to actually stepped out of my house into exposing myself at the insane scorchy sun!

we lazed on the bed; surfed the web; internet-shopped; movies-searched; and talked whatnots on the bed, in the comfort of each other's close presence.
and now as i typed on and recall the time spent this afternoon, i cringe in fear of losing him, and all these loveycosy times we share.

is it lonesome i fear?
or is it him that im really afraid of losing?
i dont know.
maybe i know and i just refuse to bring myself to admit.

he turned to me and ask what shows to catch while surfing on GV's site while i brushed him off with Reign of Assassin as i read my EatPrayLove on the bed.
you know, the typical conversations you hold on a lazy saturday afternoon with your other half.
surely it has been long since i have such emotions!
the last must have been days i had at ivan's abode some two years back.
i admit that i secretly enjoy such plain laid-back planless saturday afternoons.

came four-ish and we left his home, taking a ride down circle's line to marina square.
purchased the movie tics before eating thai food then shopped for chocolates and snacks.
and i spent 100 bucks on them all for him,baby,mummy,dumbdumb and myself!
HAHA.

though it was one typical boring satruday we have had today, it is one close to my heart cos' i felt no one between us.

no one.

and let us take this slow, shall we?

my 101010.

2010-10-10T00:20:00.000-07:00

Facebook status update:
Joanne Ling-jo loves my 101010 for the morning breakkie with folks,baby& Ling Lilian Nicholas Wong;lunch with Dang Hui Ling Yik Kar Ling Nakayama Yuki ; the movie and 9pm HANDBURGER dinner with bern! and d bumping into 伟哥 !hehs!

easybreezy

2010-10-09T00:08:00.000-07:00

now who would believe joanne ling being home and asleep slightly just after 11pm on a friday night?
no wee hours partying on a friday night?
and waking up on a saturday morning at 830am?
HAHA.
wells, apparently that was what happened to me.

last night was easy short drink at KPO;
porridge at chinatown;
and homesweethome.

this morning i woke up to my alarm at 830am, dillydallied, had raisin scones & a glass of milk for breakfast, before trainning to office to clear some work.
the kind of saturday morning which i havent' had for a longggggggg time!
yes, that applies to everything-
the waking up before 9am, the breakfast at home, and the heading to office on a saturday!

1220pm i left office for town and the supposed brunch with the 07 clique arranged at 1pm.
wells, it was 240pm when the full attendance was marked.
how does that sound?
seriously this group of friends really need to change their attitude!!!
WAHAHAHAHA!

p.s/ p.s cafe at paragon doesnt serve any fantastic meal!
BOO!

anyways, woman, sweet, kar and me carried on to wisma starbucks for some coffee love.
me managed to write up 200 additional words for woman's report!!
HEHE.
KUDOS yah despite all the gossiping and catching up!!!

the ultimate happiness for the day was derived from the dingtaifung's dinner and shopping in ION with woman and di!
:))
the 10 + 6 xiaolongabaos, the 1 + 1 prawn fried rice!
steamed yam buns for woman!
LOVES!!
KORRES bodybutter for woman & i, and the white mango top for myself!
DOUBLE LOVES!!
all the talkcocksingsong and laughters that came along was TRIPLE LOVES!
hehe.
yeasyeas, when im really HAPPY and i talk like one kid.
HAHA.
it is times like this that makes me feel really blessed to have such friends around.
people whom you may not be seeing often, yet the bond remains steadfast.
how we can be downright honest with each other and talk about every single thing.
friends like this, make me treasure my single life as it is now-
the individual relationships oh so precious!

hey silly woman, dont have to thank me.
im just doing my part as your part-time boyfriend.
those meals and purchases i'd claim the monies back from chen boxun in december.
HAHA!
and knowing you are happy today, for the longest time, makes me HAPPIER!
LOVE YOU MORE!
and i already miss you ON MY BED!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH!
:)

when time zips zaps by

2010-10-06T00:33:00.000-07:00

and i hardly find time to B-R-E-A-T-H-E.
just as i last posted on term break, another new term has begun on two days back!!
the only consolation for this term despite having the IRRITATING NEH NEH lecturer would be NO MORE friday classes :))

say Y-H-O-O-W-H-E-E!
hehs.

sum up last two weeks of break: twirlwhirl!
suddenly ter returned to my life;
suddenly we hung out more than usual;
suddenly we seem to be like how it used to be;
suddenly i spent MORE overnights at his place;

and then suddenly, i decided that it is time to put a stop to above.

reason of cause- the drama that happened just the past sunday night, or theoretically put, the wee hours of monday.
wouldn't wish to go into details but what happened that night/morning, has left a scar on me.
bad enough to have awaken my senses.
he aint the one, nope.
period.

oh, and i did mention that bern has been really sticky to me recently?
he and his sixth senses.
sometimes it scare me!
i love the way we hang out on F1 night; the way we had fun;
yet the way he introduces me to his friend that night puzzles me too.
and yes, we got ourselves couple top.
like ERRRRRR.
HAHA.
seriously there is a big psychotic problem with me.
really.
the way i can feel sick of him just by seeing him every day continously for like what, EIGHT days?!
anyways.

wells, work has really been mad busy, having to bring sales into another level.
not an easy feat, yet not that tough either.
surely God You will see me through & soar me high!
i really pray for the batam lot to be secured!!!!!
Father as always, i entrust all my worries onto Your victorious right hand!
:)

on another good note, i have been going to gym in the morning diligently for the past 2 weeks!
*pat on my shoulders hehs*
and and, TBK is released from changi's!
my dear ol' friend, pls be a good man this time round!

on another note, life oh life.
i used to say "wake me up when september ends", and now i wanna say "wake me up when my next birthday arrives!"
HAHA.
life, it never is easy.
but here i stand strong with Faith, that He will see me through.

p/s: cannot wait for our brunch with the 07 this saturday!
time to chipchipchip hehs.

everything done over

2010-09-20T19:50:00.000-07:00

and it is high time to enjoy two weeks of freedom!!!!!
HELLO FUN!

just so that my last paper coincides with buddy's birthday!
eight-coursed dinner!
seafood loving!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY BUDDY LOVE!!!
to health and wealth!

yes, im a rotten brat :)

one year has flew by us;
same place, same "my way", same daddy singing;
yet this time round it is without you, jude ow.

sometimes we need only nonsense in our life

2010-09-14T13:04:00.000-07:00

really.

just nonsensical fun in life with people like these will do just fine.

brunch@boomerangs was love

many thanks to KELVIN LIM JUN LIANG!

HAHA!

indeed.

cos he initiated and organized this outing!

and he literally took us by surprise by already placing a reservation before i thought of it, and was even the FIRST to arrive lah!!

like ever since when was he the first?!!!!

HAHA!

still, all the catching up, yes, we literally caught up with each other's life.

school's out, army's out, work's in, school's in.

life- for my group of poly loves.

for me, life as it is-

im still savouring every bit of it! :)

yes we did it together!

2010-09-13T00:51:00.000-07:00

me&dumbdumb crossed the 21km finishing line together with bro-in-law earlier this morning!
what a sense of archievement!!! :))
it really was nothing but the cliche' "YES!! WE DID IT!" that dashed excitedly across the mind the moment we saw the finishing line.
2hours43 minutes was our timing for the run and it was a timing way beyond expectations!
HAHA.
rememeber i kept telling you guys "10km no problem, anything after that i really dont know what's gonna happen!" ?
it actually wasnt that bad lah cos once u hit the u-turn mark, the rest of the run was BREEZE!!
14,15,16,17,18km all came along pretty fast hehs.
wells, point proven - it all works in the mind!
"Father i thank You for annoiting my endurance and determination which helped me last through the race!"
AMEN!

Check out this beautiful sun rise we witnessed!

YES THE FINISHING LINE!!!!

WELL DONE GOOD JOB!!!YEAHNESSS!!!

thank you kor for staying by us!hehs.

WE DID IT TOGETHER - 120910

21km really was energy-draining la!

imagine how i crashed from 1 to 6pm, then continued sleeping from 730 to midnight before im up now for my revision!

yes, i have got my first paper later and im not anywhere near done!!!?

God bless me!

:))

PEACE OUT!

so very busy

2010-09-10T01:36:00.000-07:00

for the past weeks i thank God that im still surviving here!
HAHA.
projects&datelines plus starbucks@suntec had been my very faithful friends!
with those crazy assignments all handed up and my fate for this school term almost sealed, the next ten days will be deligent revision.
or rather, i have been pretty much a good girl to have already started the studying since last sunday!
all the sleeping in at 9pm and waking up at 3am.
im GOOD!
hehs.

so much has been happening in my life too, and so much so that i cannot recall what have i exactly went through.
HAHA.
on a lighter note, ter and i have been talking rubbish pretty much the higher frequency for the past week.
and yeahoh!! he is giving me his pair of hellokitty!!
WAHAHAHA!! *happiness*
nah nah, trust me that i have put him down since the night i had an outburst :)
dont ask me much cos' there is really not much to even mention about.
oh maybe we can talk about his SFB1515 T ride?
SuperFatBoy 1515 Terence.
HAHA!

oh!
randomly, how would you react if you come across someone telling you this
"that jo ar, nowadays sibei yaya haolian! walk also got attitude lah! look at people with side glares..."
my reactions to those comments were "HAHA.interesting. i got no comment."
:)
oh, FYI, those comments were given by my ladyboss' sis-in-law,yes that infamous colleague of mine.
some people, 38 and brainless fark.
that's all i'd say.
i am who i am.
told bern and he laughed it off "siao!"

090910- one year and bern is all legal to retake his driving license!
HOORAYS!
double happiness!
just on wednesday, we went Volkswagen showroad.
probably byebye camry and hello passat cc!
whatever whichever doesnt really bother me as long he gets back his license to drive!
:)
and it actually also means we have known each for almost a year too!
errrr, dont ask me the exact date cos i chose not to remember then.
HAHA.
one year, how me&him have evolved so.
amazing how we still are standing together.
no we aint complicated, probably we just havent made up our mind.
that's about it.

very wordy post would i say!
but while i have lots more to go on, till 20th when the papers are marked down!
:)
meanwhile, twitter is really GOOD!hehs.
TA OH!!
and yaya, im taking part in Safra Army half marathon tomorrow!!
oh yea, 21 km!!
HAHA.
God You save my legs!!

*peace out!

just needed to destress at this hour of the morning

2010-08-24T00:00:00.000-07:00

sometimes i wonder if it is just me, as a really student with no sense of urgency till the very last minute, or is it generally the same for most students?

it is 416am and despite me not completing my report due today, im amazed how i can get distracted to blog.

and FYI, i slept at 11pm, woke up at 130am and have since lost track of the thousands of words i have typed the past hours.

trust me when i say i feel the STRESS level.

maximum alrite!?

with one due later and another two due on coming monday.

and left with very little time.

like i said, it really is a battle week for me!

holy!

it is really God bless me!

HAHA.

but thankfully iris sis brightened up my stressful first night with this!!

hellokitty yoyo lollipop!

hehs.

oh we had a short drinking session for her belated birthday.

see her with her FAVOURITE tweety!

and it is a darn 1kg cake for four of us and we probably ate less than 250g of it?

HAHA!

okays tata!

back to report!

tough times dont last, tough people do! :)

thankfully at this hour, there is bern to crack me up while he is making his way to the airport for his flight out to hongkong! he'd actually thought i woke up just to greet him good morning and chased me to sleep! HAHA silly.

boy, suddenly i miss you already. SAFE JOURNEY!

i have been a good girl

2010-08-19T00:40:00.000-07:00

for the past three days.
monday, tuesday & wednesday i buried myself in work, trying to get my AJ26 permit and marine insurance settled, customer's premise for crating witnessing and yadah yadah...
oh! the outsourced packer guy is pretty handsome sia!!
HAHA!
trust me, i havent' been that busy over operations for the longest time till last week?!
so much so i havent' been doing aplenty of sales call!
but really, THANK GOD PRAISE LORD for the steady volume of booking!

today, i FINALLY get to find time to go home early, after all the morning madness in office and warehouse.
yes, to take my power nap after being awake since 345am!
oh i love my job!
hehs.
i have been sleeping early and waking up at wee hours to do my school assignments the past alternate two days!
and for once, i actually finished my assignment one day before its due date!
HAHA!
i have been a good girl, havent' i? :)

tomorrow, party night for selina's birthday celebration!
whoooowheee!
we love fridays!!! :)
saturday will be assignment time with my woman;
sunday will be roadshow in the morning then birthday lunch for our chippychua!

p/s: i will be seriously busy the next week till 30th Aug when i submit ALL my remaining reports!

i thought....

2010-08-15T00:23:00.000-07:00

i had promised myself to finish sketching up the draft of Corporate Comm. report over this weekend!
but as always, those who know me well- no stress, no delivery.
that's jo. ling for you.
HAHA.
and for the record, this assignment is due 24th Aug!
be even glad that i did plan to sketch out okays!!!
hehs. (oh yeah, self-consolation, like as always eh? :)

saturday brunch with best @ jolly frog was good catch-up!
new place for best&i to check out with all thanks to sweet & good fren when i caught up with them two weeks back.
HAHA!

ONCE UPON A MILKSHAKE....
it never go wrong! :)

and just when i thought that office would be the quiet peaceful environment for me to do my homework, i was ALL WRONG!
SO SO WRONG!!
shits had to happen and i have help in fire-fighting the very half hour later that i stepped into office.
gosh!
and by the time the fire was extinguished, it was two over hours later and i was beaten.

very thankfully bern called at that very moment and tada, town we went!
he got his onitsuka tiger @ a 30% discount off retail with credits to my sweetie charles and we got our japanese snacks @ isetan supermarket.
that totally lifted my spirit all over again :)

trained back home and drove out to town again for starbucks with sis&nut fren.
LAME, yes maybe.
but with the grocery bags on hand and my not-so-light laptop on my shoulders, i had to get rid of them first.
1am and i was home and asleep.
yes, my saturday.

today, i woke up at 1230pm and cooked myself the japanese maggie mee!
veryvery yummy, if you have seen the photo on my twit/facebook upload!
really worthy my seven bucks dollar!
TVed and fell asleep a lil' while on the couch.
went to on my lappie and found myself facebooking away.
decided that a power nap could do my weekend rest justified.
HAHA.
and before i know, 630pm it was!
junction8-ed; crocs-ed; g2000-ed; dingtaifung-ed, with the folks.
bought my crocs (YES YES C-R-O-C-S).
you dont' have to be smart to know what i have bought from crocs *winks*
ah di & hin could probably be the first to know what exactly i bought!
HAHA!
and i am one VERY HAPPPPPPPYYYYYY girl.

2010-08-11T00:47:00.000-07:00

coming to home & its assured comfort.
either im feeling so sick or it's really just that i miss coming home early.
this evening i came home four off to find myself easing into my bed for a good nap and feeling really shiok about it.
errmmmm, or maybe it really is the accumulative lack of sleep over the month.
all i had over this 2 days were just porridges and more porridges.
no appetite for other solid food.
yes, that shows how sick i am feeling.
HAHA.
it is eightish now and i am going to bed soon again.
yeap, i am really still not fully recovered.
good night world.

over the long weekend

2010-08-09T00:19:00.000-07:00

in all due respect of our country, of cos we do a shoutout
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY OUR DEAREST HOME!!!"

the long weekend has been so filled with meetups&gatherings&ashorttrip that i think i have almost exhausted my energy!
hehs.

friday night we had a good boiler farewell party for kinyi.
crazy it was the amount of alcohol consumed over the short span of hours.
two half bottles of liquor of which, gladly i didnt consume even one-quarter of it!
too sloshed from the beers beforehand.
hehs.

saturday morning and the shopping for my new running shoes with brotherinlaw.
such small the world that i never realized the oasics place @genting lane is actually where my dear charles worked too!
haha!
next time anyone wanna get oasics pair @ sgd 90 - sgd150, tell me!!! :))
meetup with my two cousin brothers over longbeach lunch was loves.
plus the drinks &icecream at E in dempsy was whoooolalalaa!
following the rushyhour of hair-dying&highlighting!
byebye black hair for now hurr!
then the dinner@pastastylo with the almost complete 07'!
oh yes, dear yun FINALLY appeared at our gathering!
tad a pity pbr wasnt around!
sigh...guess the only time we have a complete 07' attendence is only a pathetic ONCE A YEAR over christmas brunch!!!!
but still, everyone remains a love.
virgin as i was, sheesha for the first attempt @ arab street and that was where we ended our night from.

and barely after some four hours' sleep, i found myself woken up again to prepare for our family shortgetaway to batam!
cheapthrill, oh definitely!
sgd21 dollars for onehalf hour long of thai mix massage; sgd 31 for a dinner prepared for a family of 8adults&1kid; sgd2 for a blackberry hardsilicon casing!
ohmy!
doubletriplove!
and the time spent with the family, priceless!
:)

and now, im so drained i think i am feeling sick.
you know the kind of soreness you get throughout the whole body when you caught a bout of flu?
that is how i am feeling now!

and gladfully it is a short working week!
God is good!
:)

best and goodol'dinner thursday?!!
or wednesday!?

tonight i cried badly

2010-08-05T00:34:00.000-07:00

cried very hard.
real bad pour-out, i'd say.
but i know, tonight is the first and only time i'd ever cry over this spilt milk.

jo, you always emerge just fine.
thank you my gu niang!
:)

for now

2010-08-04T00:21:00.000-07:00

hello loves,im BACKKKKKKK!

hongkong/shenzhen was duber rush.

i wont say it is a good trip but neither would i conclude it a bad one.

nope, i DID NOT get to do any shopping at all except the sheer coincidence of getting the kids' version comm' de garcon for bb ian.

and oh, my hellokitty add-ons from a sanrio shop which i bypass?

the good things about this trip was getting to see bb nigel & cousin lynn again within the span of one short month and the staying overnight at her new abode; the playing&fooling with bb nigel; and the cheapthrill superb ktv in shenzhen.

and the priceless experience of LIFE; getting to know human beings in its complexity amidst the very cruelharsh business reality.

the remaining of the week calls for LACK OF TIME!

HAHA.

wednesday and it's gone like vooom!

tomorrow would be work and then still road crab plus movie session with nut fren & iris sis;

friday and report submission to school then we call for farewell party;

saturday lunch with my two cousin brothers and then the dinner with 07 (and FINALLY a complete gathering with all ten members falling in! HOPEFULLY!);

sunday&monday would be family shortgetaway trip to batam.

before we all know it, it'd already be next tuesday.

HAHA.

time is really way too packed this whole month.

i have ALOT of major reports due altogether end of the month and i have begun on NONE.

me&best&good old' appear to be busy business women flying turn by turn hurr?

HAHA.

im back and best is out to hochiminh.

we'd have one good meal next week before good ol' flys out to bkk eh?!!

life, it is BEAUTIFUL.

OMY, i think subconciously im living a very inpromtu lifestyle eh?
HAHA.

okays im flying into the land of canto,like yes, twice in a month's time.
no no,NOT for holidays but business.
flying into HKG for transit up to Shenzhen.
daddy's going up to finalize on the contratual details and the signing so he'd wants me along for this trip.
wells, apart from the fact that i'd be left with zero leave after this trip, at least im gaining a free "holiday" to one of my favourite country yea?
:)

and thankfully we are flying in early saturday morning and that means a tad MORE time for shopping and baby nigel with cousin lynn!

oh, and just so coincidental that bern is flying into HKG on sunday afternoon!
hoho! now im' praying that our schedules can fit in for some walkingshopping together around in HKG!!
*crossfingers*
thankfully for this inpromtu trip that i wouldnt need to spend a day without my bbf(breakfastboyfriend).
HAHA.

okays i think i really should get to my assignment.
2500words and i have not start on anything being 2208hour now.
and it is due for tomorrow!
i ought to shoot myself to death.

life has been good this week!
last night was the boiler's freeflow event with sweet & jude.
yes that gu niang kuku KEH ang moh!!
HAHA!
and i was very happy to have our dear MIA hh organized an inpromtu zouk session(even though we didnt mambo in d end with credits to stupid zouk).
even happier to see chipchip out!hehe! *winks*
been spending alot more time with bern this 2 days.
all the buffets and walking around and the driving.

Thank God Praise Lord i'd shoutout!!!!
:D

and tomorrow we thank God it's Friday!!!!

tuesday with surprise

2010-07-27T09:39:00.000-07:00

just when i thought that i was meeting just ter for some morning teabreak, his mum & eugene followed behind.
no doubt i have met his mummy before, trust me this meeting got me offguard.
like TOTALLY!
there wasnt' any hint from him throughout our call that he had actually just stepped into office having picked his mummy from hospital.
the chat altogether was pretty nice.
his mummy is really cute, i would say.
and we are very similar when we are hungry - "im hungry!im really hungry" will just go on & on till someone takes notice.
HAHA.
and i probably last saw ter one month ago?

and on another note, maybe im flying away to canto land this weekend.
yes, AGAIN.
after the deduction and all, NO MORE LEAVE for the rest of the year!!!!!goshoh!

yeap, my tuesday with surprises.

life on d friday night

2010-07-23T03:34:00.000-07:00

Friday night,TGIF we shoutout.
Boogie through the night, fun we all had!
And when the night wraps up, the party comes to an end.
This time round, no hanky panky;
A very well-behaved me
Oh! And one more difference-
I atteneded class beforehand! :)

Jude ow, you you.
Clearly and gladly, I have moved on.

let us just have our bitsytitsy fun

2010-07-17T06:12:00.000-07:00

seemingly im enjoying sucha friday nights.
woman said "fark!woman!are you back to 18years old?!!"
HAHA!
im beginning to suspect so.
some may say, enjoy your drinks while my take is "i enjoy drinking!"
:)
when the scandals get on, now aint we all back to days of pure F-U-N?!
yeap, last night i got home GONE, with many lapsed memories of the night.
but who really cares anyway?
jenny jenny, youyouyou.
HAHA.

ohyah,just in case some of you have not been filled in about this nice story!
just last friday, i came to know this nice guy Daniel @boilers while i was trying to get a table.
cut the story short, saturday we hang out again @boilers.
fastforward the storyline, i met him for lunch two days ago and guess what?
this guy whom i barely knew for a week had actually bought me a LEE HWA diamond necklace!!
yes, OHMYOHMYOHMY!
i count my blessings to God for sending me nice people to me to pamper me.
but but, this is way too much for me to swallow.
woman said im just not used to people being nice to me instead.
oh no no, surely i dont have such a cheap life!
HAHA.
yes i love to be pampered, but the key word comes in as SELECTIVELY!
hey daniel, you have been nice.
but you have been way too nice for me to accept your kindness and gentleness.
im sorry if i sounds like some wierdo.
but hey, i really just cannot take it at the rate you have had excelerated in this friendship.

and apparently the guys around me have been taking this lovely lil' exciting story as a entertaining joke for the week.
THANK YOU hurr especially ter!
basket!
wells oh.
case close, no continuation, *cross finger.

no doubt the butterflies seem to be fluttering their way around me, err NONONO, not that im being of any arrogant sort.
but then it just dawn upon me, why does it seem that everytime this flower is ready to receive the pollens from the butterflies for some reproduction, the butterfly would flutter off?
okays, it's some lterature narration here if you interpret well what im trying to put across.
is it this flower?or is it the wrong butterflies around?

hey you, again it is the case;
just when i thought i was ready for a new one, you left me stranded in the dark.

for now, i have barely enough time to do all that is pending on hand.
lovingpeaceout!

will the 2500 words flow in like how i type a blog entry?

2010-07-12T00:55:00.000-07:00

it's almost 8pm and i have only started on one hundred words for the essay due tomorrow.
am i being too good or what?
HAHA.
the best thing would being me not feeling the least of anxiety about this incompletion.
totally marvellous heh?
the procrastination just carries forth and on, and im will keeping fingerscrossed that the endurance will kick in for the remaining two thousand four hundred words.
God bless me! Amen!
:)

recollecting all the coincidences we share;
is it you&me avoiding Fate or is Fate avoiding you&me?
ter, i miss you & the daily nonsensical chats we hold.
now, would you just do something?

communicate; let your thoughts flow to words

2010-07-09T05:53:00.000-07:00

and i've come along a long way to fully put that into action.
it never is easy to communicate your thoughts, but i guess assumption is the Mother of killer.
and the only way to avoid suicide, TALK.

tonight, be it if it was the alcohol that opened up my throat,i mustered up the courage to talk things out with ter.
one asked, "nothing has even started, what is there about to end?"
true it is that nothing has officially started between us, but i felt the need to let him know how i feel about us, about this whole queer unclear relationship we hold.
and now that i have expressed my thoughts and indications, i leave it to him to decide the direction we move on from here.

strangely, i felt like i just broke up with a boyfriend.
i dont know why i feel this way but i guess right from the start, clearly there was this strong connection between the two of us;
and how somewhere along our paths, we seemed to have already known each other for the longest time.
wells, at least, talked it out, trashed the assumptions, im good to move on;
and i just have to do it before i fall any deeper into the danger zone.

Father, i leave all my worries onto You.

oh! today being the last classless friday- two THUMBSUP for the jbar happyhour and the movida/boiler fun.
and i have to meet daniel who strangely gave me this "kenneth" vibe!
oh ken, the bbff!
i miss you.

last week

2010-07-05T00:15:00.000-07:00

has been one wellrested break away from work, oh no doubt there were some nonsensical shits that happened even whilst i was far away in hongkong.

i thank God for His blessings

2010-06-13T00:04:00.000-07:00

Father, thank you for always hearing & answering to my prayers!!

Your works, such a wonder! :)

Amen!!

those who know how deeply affected i was by some harsh words which my boss said a week ago over my resignation, im glad to tell you that my boss has finally given me his blessings!

those who know the respect i hold towards him, his blessings over my new career prospect matter a whole lot to me!

last night, we had a long talk over 7bottles of hoegardens,2cans heneiken & 2 cans murphy's stout.

the relationship we share transcend beyond employer & employee and my bosses are just like a pair of godparents to me!

"you know my doors will always be opened for you" was what he said into my eyes.

with an added " okays, let us let this kid fly!"

and like i said, 2 years down the road if my services are still demanded by you, i'd be glad to serve you again, my dearest boss!

thank you boss.

thank you for acknowledging my hard work & efforts, thank you for grooming me, thank you for watching over me.

and i'd pray to God to prosper your business!

oh, and finally the g* clique met up for some kbox fun.

hellyeah it has been such ages!!

crazy silly fun; the singing & shaking in the room.

though a pretty expensive sixty bucks session, the company was really priceless!

1 bottle martel,1 bottle of reds, 2 jugs of beer.

omg.

thankfully i held my liquor till i reached home.

and trust me that i was actually GONE by then cos' apparently i had forgotten that i had attempted watching the last few minutes of the USA v.s England match online and had actually even "favourited" the web page when i got home!

gosh!

HAH.

this morning we had father's day breakfast @Swensens which was pretty much not worth-mentioning.

and bought dad his BB (oh now my buddy carries the same phone as me hehs!).

oh look at cheeky ian!!!

then it was home for a good worthy three-hours nap before some good ol' peranankan dinner with the folks!

the ol'time favourite bekwan kepiting!!!

tad pity the standard seems to have dropped!!

now time for Solvenia & Algeria.

WAKAWAKA EH EH!

im feeling the fatigue

2010-06-11T00:01:00.000-07:00

yes im tired.
this week school started, oh yeayea it is back to the mondays tuesdays & fridays, leaving the misery wednesdays thursdays for personal time.

sorry i maybe tad queer, but i really cannot take that by sudden.
HAHA.

anyway, that was sweet of you, bern.

emo saturday

2010-06-05T00:36:00.000-07:00

having to go back office and clear up some lil' stuffs for the resignation.

woah i do sure have pretty lots of waste paper to shred!

all the memories behold.

wells..

then i moved on to hyatt for my personal MEZZA time.

a lil' soul-lifting for a second though!

with my all-time favourite strawberry cheesecake & the apple martini!

coupled with the local papers and magazines, call that LIFE.

and when i had enough of the personal chillouts, i headed next door to FarEastPlaza for some unintentional shopping.

indeed i had to unintentionally buy a pretty top to bring home with!

HAHA!

then i crossed over to starbucks @pacific plaza only to depress myself, realizing the MIA-ing of my clique!!!

OMG!!everyone seemed missing can?!!!

woman away to phuket(thank God she'd be back tonight);chip in hongkong; sweet lost with her ed; lim probably with the new gf; yyx and his foever buzynessss; didi and his army and poker ; with bing missing to God knows where; and HH needless to comment more!!

saturday night and i was home off 9+ to find myself watching "Dark Knight" on HBO.

tender due

2010-05-31T00:29:00.000-07:00

as of today.
not that i got the ending which i was seeking after, but wells oh, i already cannot ask for more from Father!
for all the blessings that He as given to me, im already one true blessed one :)

and now i await my last day in Renus and am really looking very forward to my joining of Singtel!
this new venture, the journey ahead...
all the worries i have, i duly cast them all onto God's victorious right hand!
with all good Faith, Amen!

thank you for all d advices and support all YOU have given!
thank you :)

and my dearest good ol'
CONGRATS!!!
after the years & toil hehs, YOU ARE ONE FREAKING MARVELLOUS NUS GRADUATE!!! :))

when you just let loose of control

2010-05-27T00:51:00.000-07:00

and let fate takes control.
sometimes we hold on too tight to see clearly and glad we are for reminders dropped constantly by God to WAKE the senses.
and i thank Father for that.

tabooed i may have; aint exactly so.
i felt a lil' princessy today.

oh!im one official BB user!
errr no, im WB whiteberry)user.
hehs.

to move?

2010-05-21T22:32:00.001-07:00

so i have submitted my resume just last thursday, got called for interview on the next day itself, went for the interview on monday and i have been given an offer today.
woah!
Singtel is sure efficient hurr?
ahah!

i would say the basic pay increment itself is already 300bucks.
add on allowance & the lucrative commission base, we are sure looking at very good pay scheme in the long run!

money aside, i have to admit i have ZERO knowledge on this trade and i'd have to build up from scratch.
easy it would not be, yet how tough could it be too?
oh in case you are wondering, i have been offered job in insing.com

i just need constant reminders that "hey!you are still young!! no harm trying it out!!!" sis asked me to move, bern told me to try out, woman asked me to move too.
what say you??

wells, let us watch and see.

first paper over

2010-05-17T00:48:00.000-07:00

HAHA.

ONE more on 26th and BYEBYE term1!
been awake since 230am this morning!
more than 19hours of being awake!
HELLO BED!

the two words that came from you sent pure sweetnothings to my heart.
"gosh!look at jo!!now we call that being indulged in love!" was what gwen remarked.

im glad we talked it out

2010-05-16T00:47:00.000-07:00

i really count my blessings and give thanks to God!

yesterday morning got into office and received present from jenny&yi.

sure hell it shocked me when i saw a darn burberry bag on the desk!

no, it wasnt any burberry but still in it holds a katespade!

yes, *SCREAMS SCREAMS!!

and this was the one i wanted to get for best while out shopping with jenny one month ago.

i cannot believe that she took my "maybe i can consider buying this hot red for myself" into heart lah!!

HOW NOT TO HEART THIS LADY BOSS OF MINE?!!!

evening it was for celebration @KPO with the usuals, add-on jude&shah!

the drinks were crazy.

ironically, i didnt even touch the bottle of chivas which jude&shah bought for me lah!

HAHA!

and then, nut fren & wayne have to popped out from my back and yes, *SCREAMS SCREAMS* again!

HAHA!

the night was hella fantastic except' that my memory stops at the glass of waterfall.

dont ask.

HAHA!

today's message from Pastor Prince - valuable
"peace is of the conscience; joy is of the heart"

as i ease myself

2010-04-24T00:06:00.000-07:00

it comes across to me that i still linger for you.
i might seem to have got over you, got over us, but as i was scrolling through my past entries over the year, many happy scenes flash through my mind.
and hey jude, those were real good days true from the innate.
i dont know the future.
but at least till date after you, after us, i really havent experienced the same, nor any similar, with any other men.
it is not obstinacy that i hold, it is a search for the same experience that i am going through.
i want to fall in love, all over again.
yes, i really want to.
no, not that i am desperate for a relationship;
i am happy with life as it is now.
and life sure has its way of keeping my schedules tight.
but no, i have not given up the hope of falling in love, truly, again.
single life as it is now, cannot be any fabulous!
the freedom that i hold and the accountability to no one but myself, is something i really treasure.
but as it is, i do miss everything about you.
the way you had your way into my heart and blew my soul away.
i miss you, jude.

**
oh, did i forget to mention WE had a good time yesterday night at home club with my clients.
but then, was it the alcohols that we enjoyed or is it the simple 'togetherness' that we adored?
probably it really was just the alcohols.
oh, in case you got it misunderstood, it's bern&i in this "WE" context.

the week has passed the half mark yet again

2010-04-23T00:55:00.000-07:00

and my last recollection was waking up to monday morning with aches from the friday personal training session.
HAHA.
it is already thursday night.
no correction, the time is 1240am, 23rd april.
HOLY.
should i rejoice in TGIF?!!!!
by right, i should.
but by left, i aint.
cos' im farking waiting for my team mate to send me her part of report to do the compilation for tomorrow's submission.
now this is really SML!
darns.

but wells, instead of wasting my time ranting on some pointless issue, IT IS SIXXXXXX DAYS to yours truly's birthday!!!!
hehs.
HELLO EVERYONE!!??!!
my few countable friends!!!
29th is coming!!!!
:)

hmmm.now as i rejoice in some excitement, it suddenly strikes across me "how the hell would i even come to bump into jude ow at darn west coast mcdonald's just on tuesday!!??"
gosh!
now woulc anyone of you think you would ever bump into any one at darn ulu west coast in a darn afternoon weekday!!!?
wahahah!!
what's with the bumping into each other at the wierdest time!
oh yeayea, i still owe him his super belated birthday dinner and present.
and im impressed he remembers my birthday!
HAHA!
shit why am i so sacastic!!?
biatch!

and guess what?
our consol team has somehow developed this budget ladies' night happyhours session in office instead!
HAHA.
730pm, four of us, four cans of heneiken bought from 7-11.
marvellous!
hehs.
now this could be LIFE once in blueblue moon hurr?

actually, i have been so busy that i aint feeling the bit of teenyweeny builtup to my birthday.
is this part of post-21? or is it cos' birthdays just aint birthday-feeling anymore?
seriously, there aint any concrete plans made on the 29th and im not intending to make any plans for the day either.
28th would be good party with the colleagues; 1st or 2nd with the best&good, and family; 7th would be the crazzzzzzyyyyy crash with the clique;

i could just be absorbing the good simple joy of 29th on my own, in my private hideaway.

meanwhile im gonna work hard to finish my major report due on 3rd over this weekend so that i can enjoy my birthday week!

and im like coming down with bad throat!!!NO NO!!!!

**
darn!!
doesnt' she have any sense of shame or guilt to make me wait for an hour already?!!!!!!
FARK!

relationships

2010-04-18T22:16:00.000-07:00

they can be the toughest to handle.

had a long talk with iris sis over the phone.
and im sorry sis that you have to carry this secret about me&bern in front of nut fren and the gang now hehs.
"let time tell & listen to your heart" was the precious advise sis gave.
thank you sis.

i taboo-ed;
aint in any right to doubt bern.
all in all;
we shouldnt let the external factors sway the hearts, right?
im watching in the dark;
probably he has shown his all.
now who's the one playing right now?

"we are all adults and we should learn to express ourselves in the relationship if we want things to work out. never ask a man to guess what's going on in your mind. speak it out,shout it out. whichever way, get the message across to the man."

when you got the mood for some webcam shots :)

2010-04-18T01:25:00.000-07:00

and i love this gentle shot most hehs

930am,woke up.

1230pm, fau arrived and started on our project.

350pm, i took a power wink for ten minutes.

6pm, fau left.

630pm, i drove out to garden macs to takeaway fillet meal.

645pm, home & savouring the hot fries and burger.

hmmmm. now that was my real boring sunday, the once in a blue blue moon kind.

HAHA.

folks gonna be back tommorrow!!

CANNOT WAIT!!!!

allllll the good treats from nippon!!!

oh!!

plus my dumb sis' mango mochi from hongkong too!

now who says you have to travel?!!

HAHA.

actually probably all was wrong to begin with

2010-04-18T00:09:00.000-07:00

and i have thought of it before;
so why have i forgot about it now?

we are all out to have that tad fun right?

2010-04-17T00:36:00.000-07:00

last night's zoukphuture party was really hellabreakloosecrazy bangballsbangboobs!
HAHA!
and it really has been pretty long since i actually club-ed.
perfecto company i could ask for cept' for the absence of woman&sweet.
you dont want to know the amount of drinks we had.
CRAZYYY.
totally.

that was just the first round.

dont ask me what followed.HAHA
good music as always!

and for the longest time, i actually have YOUNG guy sending me home.
*inside joke
there is something very wrong with my mental, i reckon!!!
HAHA!

"when the sun rises, reality sets in"
arhhur, so i get the truth behind the statement.
indeed we were all out to have a good night!

woken up by fatty sis' call past 12pm and continued sleeping in till 130.
washed up and picked bern up for lunch.
then the random walkaround at hub and KOI-ed.
and beehooncrab-ed.
the soupy dish was indeed perfect for the rainy weather.
what a love :)
thanks for your advise, bern.
now we really have to ease such conversations hurr.

and i think you may have got your way into my heart, unknowingly.
last night, i suddenly came to realize so.

happy birthday mummy dearest

2010-04-15T00:56:00.000-07:00

and God pls bless my mummy the pinkiest health :)

skype with the folks&aunts lifted my day hehs.

and im glad to hear that they are enjoying themselves.
really, when you are of an age, travelling round the world is the way to LIFE!
:)

i got a sweet mum.
having received my missed call earlier this morning, mummy sent this text:
"dear i miss you call sorry i buy hollo+kitty+bag+for you"

what more can i ask for heh?

**

monday gone in bhoooom

2010-04-12T23:01:00.000-07:00

pow!
started the week with my morning gym, waking up @ 540am :)
i like,i love.
and im gonna stick to my morning regime religiously, for now.
HOPEFULLY!hah!
not gonna darn waste my 75dollars monthly membership fees heh.
and amazingly, i came to realize the loss of 0.5kg this morning despite the abtinence from gym for one wholesome month!
darn!
i must have lost mass and gained fats instead!!!!!

anyhow, had a good feasting for mummy's advanced birthday dinner @seafood paradise.singapore'a flyer.
double thumbs up hehs!
sgd230 for 2crabs,roasted salt chic,deer meat, tofu, longevity mee, dessert (pure aloavera!)
meal for 7adults, 1 kid.
value for money for such ambience!
and the gravy for their chilli crab and butter crab is so unique and unlike any Melben's style that is so pretty typical!
really salivating hehs.
check out the photos uploaded by my dumbdumb sis on FB!

and mamapapa gonna fly out tomorrow at this hour!
no house alone for me this time round as my 9th aunt gonna be staying in my place till 7th aunt is back with folks, since cousin ray is a guy and aint that convenient for her to be alone with him.
darn!
i wanna my peaceful boxers-only days loh!
geeee.

bern, you awed me with your call to seek comfort for your insecurity over work.
i adore how it's like a boyfriend talking to the girlfriend about his troubled mind.
im sure of your capabilities! :)
but i guess the worst of all is the fact that our companies are competitors and we cannot really talk since they concern trade secrets.
suddenly, i really cannot wait for steven's call to get into bdp oil&gas.

God, i leave my worries onto your victorious right hand!

hello TBK

2010-04-11T12:45:00.000-07:00

got your letters today and i have to admit your words overwhelmed me.
really, they did.
sentences so true from the heart, backed by the most traditional way of communication-snail mail, you got me on surprise.
it'd probably would be the most precious birthday present this year round;
not afraid to say so, two letters from changi prison complex from TBK.

"Priase the Lord," i would have to proclaim first.
Father you hear my prayers for this dear friend and i cannot express the elation to hear that he has turned to You, whilst serving his time.
Amen!

friends,the true ones, they go a long way back.
what touched me most, is the updates you have on my life without contacting me throughout.
still no idea who your"spy" is, HAHA.
but that doesnt matter cos' somehow you have shown and expressed your care concern for me from behind.
hey, thank you.
and i would still say the same to you, the day we meet again after your release.

your letters have came to enlighten me, true friends, they need not be talking to each other constantly but ultimately, it is the purest showers of concerns that is from the bottom of the heart shown, that matter most during rainy days.
i havent been the most cheerful inately, and your letters came at the most needy time to lift up my spirit.
really, they did.
thank you, once again.

Father, keep the Faith in him strong and let it burn with passion, lead him the way, and walk him in the truth of gospel. Open his heart to accept the truth of gospel in which he will be set free. Father, thank you for hearing and answering to my prayers! In strong name of Jesus we say, Amen!
