There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten. But in one respect I have succeeded as gloriously as anyone who's ever lived: I've loved another with all my heart and soul; and to me, this has always been enough.Bellonahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17409272493463554242noreply@blogger.comBlogger1971100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34380627.post-69355101784627838242010-02-06T04:00:00.002+08:002010-02-06T04:39:27.294+08:00

Finally, the weekend is here. Can't wait to get out of office. I told myself to keep my emotions under control but it is hard. I kept my cool as much as I can since it is just a job. Ranting away in silence openly is one of the only ways to calm myself down. Haha... Sometimes, writing the diary helps too rather than revealing my feelings over here. It doesnt matter if I don't receive comments on

It was a rough day for me on a Tuesday. It was supposed to be my confirmation day for my job, but I ended up in tears. I am confirmed, of course. However, it wasn't a happy event. I am glad this blog is still 'active' for me to pour my unhappiness over here. Life is not fair, I know and I accepted the unfairness to a certain extent. Having to work with someone who is full of bullsh*t and full of

I want to scream out loud. I really do. I don't understand these OL aka office ladies. Must conversations be filled with sarcasism? I don't know when did I 'owe' this particular OL $$$. She seems kinda biased against me. It was fine the first week, but subsequently, her behaviour changed. Sigh... was it because I'm on good terms with her arch enemy?I detest office politics.

Had a rough week. Been doing '2nd' shift after my day work. Worked till 4am the day before. I can never finish my work. Unfinished and new assignments just keep increasing. Every engagement has their own deadlines. Felt disappointed when my work and effort are not appreciated. Had a rough day. It is not my problem but my assistant's. I got to minimise the damage done and apologised profusely for

I am going on a mountain climbing trip with my friends next month. Was told by many friends that I need to build up my stamina as it is going to be a long walk. Hmm... I believe I can safely build up my stamina and strength in a month if I 'work out' in the gym 4 times a week. I pray that I would not be overload with work. My schedule for the next 2 weeks should be a non wee hours week. I am

My peak period's gonna end soon, probably by end March 09. Yay! I will be able to engage in my favourite pastimes real soon; i.e. baking, working out, body massage/scrub, facial session. Thinking of a career change. Thinking of taking a culinary course. Playing with the idea of becoming culinary chef.It's gonna be a complete change of career for me. I always been interested in baking and cooking.

After being dependent on my parents for over 20 yrs, I finally broke 'free' from them. Chinese New Year this year is slightly different. I gave my parents red packets for the very first time for CNY for this Ox Year 2009. They still gave me and my brothers red packets when the clock striked 12 in the morning. It hasn't been easy for my parents to raise all 3 of us up. I am so glad that they can

Peak has finally arrived. Stress level has been on the high. That's the end of my private space and time for the next few months to come. Been feeling rather emotional and yes, it is nothing new. I always been emotional be it work-related or relationship wise. I seem to sob uncontrollably lately. I tried to blame it on my pms which is the likely culprit for my erratic behaviour most of the time.

2008 has been like a coaster roller ride for me. Finally, it is coming to an end. I wish 2009 will be a better year ahead although the economy is suffering a recession. I wish everyone including my family good health in many years to come and success in work/career. Happy New Year!!! =)

Christmas this year was somehow different. I attended a church service on the 24th Dec 08 in the evening. Never would I expect myself to find myself in a church. I could never wake up early in the morning to go to the church with him. Just once i remembered, on 25th Dec 2005. I remembered his disappointed look when I appeared tired and the lack of zest in attending the service. He didn't even try

My sprained ankle is still very swollen and parts of the foot looked bruised. =( 2 of my toes are bruised and they hurt when I pressed on them. I need to go for an x ray to check if I fracture any of the toes. It just saddens me that I can't head to the gym for any workout looking at my current state. Taking medical leave to rest my foot seems unlikely. *sob*

It was a beautiful Monday morning as usual until I fell flat on my knees on the pavement near my residence and sprained my right ankle. Blood oozing out from my left kneecap. Couldn't find any tissue papers to stop the blood and got my hands stained with abit of my blood. Glad I put some plasters in my bag and stopped the bleeding. My ankle was swollen like a pig trotter. The pain was

Stranded on my own in my office on a Sunday evening. In fact, it is already past midnight and I can barely open my eyes now. There were a few others in the afternoon, but the number decreased as each hour went by. Didn't work the least bit on Saturday. Went to the gym for a good workout and did some window shopping. Think of getting a new mobile phone for myself as a X'mas gift. Saw this model

Got myself 2 new cookbooks. One of them is ' Martha Steward's Cooking School'. Bought it after less 30% discount @ Borders. I wouldn't think of getting it without any decent discount. It is really a headache finding the 'best' cookbook. My cookbook must contain photos of all the recipes which is one impt criteria in choosing the book. Steps must be easily understood and ingredients must not sound

Starting to feel stressed again. My new engagements have started. I've no break except X'mas break. I longed for another holiday. Hong Kong and Japan are on my Agenda. Hong Kong seems like a regular visit for me. Miss my good friend A. One of the many frds I made during my stay in HK a couple of years back. A never forgets anout me, always welcome me with open arms whenever I visited her in HK.

How I wish I can bring this humogous pumpkin back for Halloween Party. Unforgettable quad bike ride. Had fun taking pic with the adorable Turkish kid. Behind me is some limestone thingy (Pardon me, not good with the names) The 5th pic is the toilet bowl used during the ancient times (sounds crude, I know) and the last pic is the Replica of Trojan Horse. Turkey trip was quite enjoyable but

Finally, I get to rest before my next peak. Good news is I'm going to visit Turkey!! Bad news is, I am currently down with flu, bit of sore throat and itchy throat. Feeling a little feverish too. I wish I can recover well before my trip which is another 3 days' time. My endless work is not helping me. I tried sleeping for the whole of Saturday. Did nothing else but popped medication and sleep. I

Last Sat, I attended my friend's baby daughter one month old celebration. She looks just like her dad, my friend, K. C, my friend's wife asked me if I want to carry her. I hesitated for a second because I was kinda nervous as the baby R was so fragile and small. Yet, at the same time I was extremely excited! I carried her for a couple of minutes, took pics with her and sang her a song, 'Twinkle

These days I fear losing my loved ones especially my parents. When I first lost my granny, I was desvastated. My world came crumpling down. It hit me real hard amongst other things. I fell into depression, took anti-depressant pills. They seemed to help everytime I took them. It calmed me down. I find it hard to run to my mum and cry in front of her. I did once when my relationship ended. The one

These days I'm having trouble sleeping. I wonder if the long break is doing me more harm than good. I yearns for ample rest when I was working hard like a dog. And when I have all the time in the world, my body just wouldn't listen. Physically tired but mentally awake. I simply couldn't stop thinking about everything, all kind of thoughts be it trivial or not. So, for the first time, I took cough

Bought a shirt last Tue and sent it for alterations as the sleeves were abit too long for my arms. In fact, after I made my purchase, I felt a tinge of regret. I thought the shirt was way over-priced @ S$300+ and I never heard of the foreign label before. I was thinking, I should have spent the money on a Tiffany chain or something. Too much free time and I couldn't think properly then. Anyways,

Took up golf last May 2007. Practised and stopped for more than half a year. I went for a golf practice last evening. Oh my gosh, my golf skills still sucks. I hit approximately 120 balls including the missed hits. Swinging angle is wrong, tend to bend my left arm which I shouldn't. Need a few pointers from J who goes for regular golf practices.

A couple of weeks ago, I went clubbing with a group of friends. Usually, we would play number-guessing game using hands, for e.g 5, 10, 15, all or nothing, where the loser will drink a sip of the drink if the winner guess the number correctly. That faithful evening, my friend, HD suggested '7 up'. My first thought was, ' 7-up? The drink?' Nah, not at all. What everyone will do is to start count

I bought a new cookbook. It's called 'Comfort Food'. The recipes published are rather simple to follow. What I like about this book is that they have a number of my favourite comfort food which I have been wanting to learn on how to prepare them. Example: Macaroni cheese, sheperd's pie, potato gratin etc... And cauliflower cheese looks yummy too! :)~~~~ I understand I can get recipes online and

Received a call from my company doc that my blood test came out normal. Nothing wrong with the blood count,i.e., there is a good balance of red/white blood cells present in my blood. Thank goodness. And for the puny lump felt near my collar bone, most probably it is a case of fat deposit formed up. Got to see the doc to see if it is necessary to have it removed. Well, it also means I need to

Can't sleep. Must be the cold coffee I'd at Prego. Didn't add any sugar, so it tasted quite potent. My body is tired but my mind is not. A break for me yet seem so stressful. My heart felt heavy and I feel nausea and a tint of sadness too. Who can I talk to at this time of the night? Not S. I've been bothering her rather often lately. Not J. It will just sadden me more. Not him too. I will not

Going for a bowling game on tue evening. Gonna be in a team and competing with many other teams which comprise of my colleagues from various departments. I am never a competitive person and in the first place I didn't want to sign up for it. SO happened one of my colleagues couldn't attend the game, I was asked to replace her. I agreed. And I regretted now. I can't bowl for nuts. I will be a

Met D for dinner @ Prego today. D told me she had rested for 6 months at home and just started back at work 2 weeks ago. I was curious why the long break. She told me that she has colorectal cancer and began undergoing radiotherapy and chemo for the past 6 months. I kept quiet upon hearing this. My heart skipped a beat. She didn't look like she was sick, looked perfectly healthy to me. D told me

I will be going on a 5-week leave starting from 7th July 2008. Not going anywhere for holiday. Going to be in Singapore during this period. Need time to sort out some personal matters.

I signed up to be a volunteer for my company's event. My co has organised activities for a charity called 'Club Rainbow'. Club Rainbow (Singapore) is a registered charity committed to helping children suffering from a range of chronic and life-threatening illnesses. I do not know what is my duty on that faithful day,i.e., 12th July 2008. I enjoy doing volunteering work especially when it involves

Was told that Prosure is good for people with cancer. Cancer patients tend to lose weight, so this milk powder is said to improve quality of life and many other benefits. One can go to http://prosure.com/ for more information about this product. It will be good to get a regular health checkup, just to get a peace of mind. Cancer can hit anyone. Never think that ' it will never happen to me'. In

Went to see Dr Y during lunch, told him about the lump near my collar bone. He felt it and agreed that it is a lump but told me it may not be cancerous. Advised me to monitor. I refused and asked if I can perform a blood test. Dr Y advised a blood count test where the test results can detect the presence of certain diseases. It was not easy detecting my blood veins on my arm. The visible ones are

I am always not very updated with the latest pop songs. I simply listen to whatever songs uploaded into my ipod. My songs can be as old as more than 2 yrs ago. I will literally 'beg' my friends to send me the latest songs, so that I can practise on them and sing at my next kara session. The begging part is just a joke. I will get a tongue lashing from my good friend, J for singing the same old

Sickness is horrid. I wish all mankind is protected from it. Sickness hits anyone regardless he/she is kind, mean, evil, innocent. Everyday, I surf the internet reading news of hope. I will give it a shot so long 'hope' sounds credible and reasonable. I am not a doctor nor will I imagine to be one. I do not discuss with my friends, but just my family and my good friend, S. They're the ones I

I'm crushed. I do not want to appear weak because that will make the situtation worse. I only dare to bury myself in tears in my bedroom without the notice of my family. I am praying that everything will be fine.

Lost my luggage on my way back to singapore from Jakarta. Apparently, someone took my luggage by mistake at the conveyor belt. I wasn't around when this happened. Shouldn't have bought any liqour at the DFS shop then.Why didn't my colleagues stop the lady who took my luggage? I saw a similar luggage not claimed. Design of the luggage is so similar and mine too had a lock but completely different

I was having stomach upset on Day 1. It happpened after I had some traditional nasi padang. The pain in my tummy come and go every 30 mins. It was slightly unabearable. It was affecting me at work. On day 2, I was positive that I had food poisoning. I went to the ladies 4 times a day. Had some charcoal pills. They didn't help. The mere drinking of water made me run to the loo too.

Staying at Hotel Mulia for my current audit engagement. Nice room. Beautiful. Don't think I can enjoy much of my time in the hotel. Haven't sleep a wink since Monday. Touched down in the morning and went straight to my client's. Almost collapsed due to lack of sleep at my client's office.Gonna catch some sleep and get up real early to do some work.

I'm leaving for Jakarta on Tue and there're tons of work unfinished. My assistants, one went for a long weekend getaway, the other had a minor operation on his leg. So I am left alone doing up all the unfinished business. I can't get any assistant to help me. My own share of work not done up yet and I have to finish the work that was assigned to my assistant.

No holiday for me at all for this coming long weekend. Nothing's new, I guess. I need to work this weekend and Monday, i.e., Vesak Day. On Tuesday morning, I am going to fly to Jakarta for an engagement. It was decided at the last minute by my in charge.It came as a surprise for me. Sigh... I am going to miss my good friend's birthday party on a Friday and my friend's brother's wedding on a

Happy Mother's Day, mom! I bought an open heart pendant necklace with 2 cut diamonds from Tiffany & Co. on each side of the centre of the heart for my mom. Shared the cost with my 2 lovely brothers. I made sure that my mum didn't know we got her a gift. I love surprises.Miss surprises.Finally, the day came. I passed her the gift on 10th May 08, a day before Mother's Day. She was watching tv in

I went clubbing last Friday. Managed to leave work on the dot, so decided to unwind myself. The night was still young but some joker was already drunk by 11-ish. I was chatting with my friends, suddenly, I felt someone's heavy duty shoe/boots kicked down hard against my lower calf. Ouch!! Maybe he couldn't spot me since I was in black. It was definitely not a tactic to pick me up. Definitely not.

Updates updates updates...1. Busy with work since Jan 2008 till end Feb 2008. I worked almost everyday. There were a couple of days I worked till 7am twice in a week. And till 3am on sat and sun. It was a horrifying time for me. On some Sundays, I'd be in the office from 720am, just because I wanted to get a free ride from my dad. The saying goes,' Early bird catches the worm.'

2008 marks a new beginning for me. New responsibilities or should I say, more responsibilities? Both, actually. My peak this year seems to be a whole lot more overwhelming than previous years. Managing ppl is one of my main agenda too and that can be quite disturbing. Worst kind of engagement: Terrible client including their staff, accounting figures keep changing, audit assistants with no sense

Today's my mum's birthday. Brought her along with the rest of my family members to Canton Wok By Chef Kang. Bought her a birthday cake. Haven't decided what to get her for her birthday. I believe a good pair of shoes would be a great gift. Maybe a pair of Ferragamo shoes. Loved these shoes. Good and durable. Wanted to cook longevity noodles for my mum as a surprise but I doubt I'll be able to

Was out shopping with my godson, R and his mum, S (my good friend) in the morning since 9am on the eve of Christmas. Bought my godson a remote control racing car for him. He chose it. I got myself a discounted working shirt from G2000. Very pleased with my buy. The whole affair lasted till 12.30pm as the 3 of us were very tired. S gave me a lift back home since she was driving.

That's my Christmas pressie I got during the gift exchange at my firm's X'mas party. It seemed so appropriate a gift for me. It sure comes in handy during my peak period come Jan 2008. The most coincidence part was that the gift was bought by my colleague whom I kept pestering at to reveal what he has bought for the gift exchange. And he happened to be in the same engagement team as me. He wanted

Time of the year again. The time of giving. Though I am not a Christian, I love celebrating Christmas. I enjoy getting pressies for people I care about. I packed puny bags of sweets for my colleagues. As seen above, the preparation. As seen below, the end result. Can you spot the difference between picture 2 and picture 3 below?

My peak is starting again. Been working rather late at clients' premises for some nights. Nothing's new I guess. Working long hours is not much of an issue since I enjoy my work very much still. But working alone late in the night on my own kinda freaks me out sometimes. I admit openly that I am a scaredy cat. I am a leo, but yes, I am timid. Scared of working alone, scared of taking old

Lost a friendship which I treasure very much. Although we still talk, it is very much lost. I apologized but she didn't accept my apology. Similar case happened to me before but I didn't get angry with her for long. Oh well, it hurts when she gives me the cold shoulder and pretends to talk to me in front of our friends and ignores me the next moment when we're alone. It was upsetting. No one to

Look at this... The kind of food served at the canteen in a factory. I had this ( some of the dishes change almost daily) for 2 whole weeks except for two days where my engagement team took a bus out to eat at a coffee shop and another day where we ordered delivery. Food tasted bland maybe becoz they have to sell them cheap to the workers in the factory and couldn't use more salt and soya sauce

I received the gift on 18th October 2007 when my birthday was on 20th August. I always wanted a card holder. I never think he was so observant. I was moved by his sincerity in making sure that he got the right stuff for me and that

Not sure what to give him, so I supposed money is the most practical gift. We went for a birthday lunch. My elder bro paid for lunch. My youngest bro gave my dad a red packet too.

I offered the cheesecake to some of my colleagues. They like it. One of them even suggested that I should stop being an auditor and to commence selling baked goods. Another added on to say that she is willing to pump in capital if I am serious in this baking affair. I was pleasantly surprised and overwhelmed by their confidence in my baking skills. I feel that there're still room for improvement,

Baked cheesecake for the first time with my friend, J. It was successful. The steps were easy to follow through. The preparation didn't take long. Baking time was long though. Approximately 1hr 10 mins. J and I were happy with the outcome for it tasted like cheesecake. Duh! Of course it tasted like cheesecake for it is cheesecake we are baking.

Last week, I went to a sale during my lunch time and grabbed 3 pairs of shoes. Before the sale started, I've already tried on the sizes. As I've only 1 hour for lunch, I need to use my time effectively for this crazy sale. The discount ranged from 20% to 30%. At first, I planned to get 2 pairs of shoes, i.e., the black-colored ones seen in the picture. But the red shoes caught my eyes and I fell

Lately, I've been baking brownies and chocolate chip cookies. I offered them to my engagement team. The girls loved them. One of the girls, C, said that my cookies looked just like her mum's but mine tasted better. Soon after, the girls told me that I possess motherly love. That's so hilarious! They were amazed that I can cook too and that makes me even more motherly. One reason is because they

Watched a korean drama recently called 'Couple Fantasy'. In this particular drama, the lead actress always eats 'zha jiang mian' (chinese sauce noodle but korean style) as seen above in most of the episodes. It looked delicious on tv, so I started to scout for this interesting looking noodles in the supermarket. I found it and bought one pack to try. It doesn't look appetizing (because it was

Planned to cook curry chicken or chicken curry using the usual curry paste brand I use every time but it was out of stock. Trying to be more flexible, I decided to use a different brand of curry paste for my dish. I was so afraid that my curry wouldn't turn out well but I was so wrong! It did taste a little bland for a start but after I added some salt and sugar, it tasted just like typical

Stayed in my bedroom the whole day(almost). Saturday. Sunday. Watched tv in my room. Watched tv in the living room with my family. Put a temporary halt to my baking sessions last weekend. Wanted to go to the gym for a workout but my legs wouldn't move an inch. Felt lethargic and went to a deep afternoon sleep. Saturday. Sunday. OMG! Is this me? I hope this is just a temporary undesirable

Made a tray of brownies. Pardon me for the small fraction of missing brownies at the right-hand corner of the tray. I tried a puny bit to make sure that they're 'safe' for consumption. I may sound lame but yes, this is nothing but the truth. With all due respect and if it pleases the court, come try my brownies. This tray is meant for my colleagues and my good friend J who happened to be working

I've been participating in activities organised by my firm especially running ones. I know I won't win any prizes but at the same time I do not want to be the last person to finish the race. I got my colleagues to join me for the run too. It is always more enjoyable to have a company of friends joining for such events. The only activity I would pass would be triathon,i.e. biking, swimming and

Life's not that bad, really. Having my training takes me away from those engagements temporarily. Am appreciating these stress-free moments now. This is the only time where you have no outstanding matters to follow up to and that you can make plans with your friends for a movie, dinner or coffee. Oh boy, how I love those moments! If only I can take one or 2 days break after every engagement,

It was a horrendous trip. I didn't get to celebrate my birthday in Taipei. I really wanted to have a birthday cake for my birthday. I felt so alone. Realised I was somehow forgotten except by my family members and a few good friends. My mum gave me 2 pecks on my cheek when I returned home from my trip. That was so sweet of her. My former boyfriend sent me a birthday card. This is how I spent my

I went to a ktv (karaoke) club on sunday with my friend, YW. I love singing but I believe I mentioned before that I'm not a good singer. At least, the tv screen did not crack after all the croaking. We booked the room for 4 hours. Hehe... Our initial plan was to catch a movie. I wanted to watch Simpsons but she wasn't keen. She wanna watch some movie by a Taiwanese actor but I objected. So she

It's gonna be a 5-day trip and am gonna celebrate my birthday in Taipei and that day will be my trip back. In fact, I am not looking forward to this trip or rather, I prefer to celebrate my bd back home. Feeling rather lousy lately and busy with work at the same time. There seems to be

My Sunday was rather well-spent. In my opinion, it was. Hehehe...1) 12.30pm - Went for a 25-min jog @ the gym. Covered 3.1km. Had a quick shower and rushed home.2) 3.30pm - Brought my mum for a massage session.3) 4.40pm - Queued for 20 mins for some donuts which my mum adores.3) 5.30pm - Went to 2 boutiques and spent 1hr 30mins trying on various outfits with my mum together.

Starting to miss P already. Sent him off @ the airport on 21.07.07 @ 7ish am. After a night of partying and slept for a mere 1 and a half hours, I managed to drag myself out of bed very reluctantly @ 7am. There's no way am I going to miss the send off. If I do, I'd regret for the rest of my life. I was really quick in changing up for once. Without any make-up on, I was done in 15mins! It was a

Been feeling moody for the past few days. Planned to take leave this week but was being plotted on a new engagement for a couple of weeks. Arrghhh!!! And now I've to wait till my engagement is over. Still feeling down. The time now is 3.10am. Was terribly dead beat earlier on so I took a nap first. I am starting to continue with my work now. I shall target to finish my work in 1hr's time.

Yes, I was upset. I didn't expect to see him with another girl. He didn't expect to see me either. I totally construed that both of us belonged to different sides of the universe. I felt silly. I'd enough of "I'm so sorry that I hurt you so much." especially through sms. The thing about sms is that you can sound so sincere when you are not.

Had dinner at my favourite Japanese restaurant near my workplace before I meet my friends for drinks at some club last Friday. This is my third time during the month of July having Japanese food at the same place. However, I always order a different main course. I had teriyaki chicken set and it cost S$18++. My favourite Japanese dish is Unagi. I love Japanese cuisine so much that I can have

Baked some brownies earlier in the week since I've 'slightly' more free time now. Changed some techniques for my brownies baking process and the result was thankfully not disastrous at all. My weighing scale performed a 'disappearing' act just when I needed it so much. I find that it is a prudent attitude to measure the ingredients rather than using estimation when it comes to baking. For me at

A couple 0f months back, I saw a long queue of people outside a Donut shop. I was like, "Are they really that good?" Queuing seems like a national trait of Singaporeans. Whether it is freebies or not, we 'love' to queue even for worthless stuff. And that makes us 'Kiasu' aka afraid to lose Singaporeans. As the queue was seriously too long, I aborted the idea of getting one myself. Besides, I am

"Let's not see each other anymore. And, I don't think I will call you again." I said calmly. " You don't have to call me too." I added. C sounded stunned. I'd enough. I wanted to be treated right. "You really don't want to meet me again?" C asked. " I think it is better this way." I said. "I'm very sorry. I know you're disappointed with me." C sighed. I took a deep breath. "Yes, I am."

I didn't know Father's Day doesn't fall on the same day for some countries, for e.g Australia.

I passed my final paper for my CPA program! I'm so thrilled that I couldn't get myself to sleep. Happy/relief/glad/happy again describes my very feelings at this juncture. No more exams for me no more. No more! Before I checked my results, I was contemplating whether to check on the day itself, i.e. 15th June 2007 or wait for the letter (which will arrive 3 wks later).

It means that I will plan one less surprise out of many surprises which I always (still do) adore doing every year. That makes me sad too but I didn't weep or anything.On this particular day, I had a lunch appointment with my friends and did some shopping. Got myself a

I recovered after popping the usual medication. Maybe the virus surrounding me is too strong, I was sick again last weekend and my cough got worsened.

Encountered many 'first time' experiences on 13th May 2007. I watched a play called 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' at Fort Canning Park. A play by William Shakespeare performed by the local cast in my home country.It was an evening event. I brought some food and drinks including a pretty picnic mat from Swatch but I missed on the wine item. A picnic can't be completed without some wine. Nevertheless

13th May 2007 marked my first golf lesson. Boy, I was so excited! I'm still am. It is a tiring hobby. I need to work on my arms so that I'll have more strength to carry the golf club. Took up my new-found hobby with a couple of friends. I managed to hit the golf ball the first time. Hehe... My coach even complimented me that I am doing a good job for a first-timer.

I went for my regular facial treatment earlier this week and my beautician told me that there were a number of clogged pores on my face. And it seems that there are more and more of such cases at every visit. This recent visit was quite bad. There were so many extractions done on my delicate skin till I started to be a little teary. It is getting rather annoying. I was recommended to use collagen

How long does one take to grow a liking to someone? Thru' one meeting? Two? or Three? Some took years. A distant acquaintance, X whom I met and lost contact appeared in my life again. We met up again 6 months later through a common friend. He asked for my number after our second group outing. Exchanging numbers does not imply that the other party is keen in you.

Taking a breather while still suffering from an annoying cough. Seated firmly on a rather 'comfortable' chair with stacks of papers waiting for me to perform some audit tests on. My team members have left but I am not alone in my office. Playing soothing love numbers on my laptop. Suddenly I felt depressed. I wanted to head to my comfy bed and sleep on it but I just couldn't. Pressure built up.
