Finally, PED the great final year project is over. Months of toiling, sweat and determination had at least bear some fruits. And after a long hiatus, I am back and trying to clear the cobwebs that have gathered on my blog. Guess everyone in my group (esp SQ) had a fair share of complaints and grudges during the informal presentation. Rushing to meet datelines, gathering for 12-24hrs to discuss, tsar-bombs session, emo-ness, conflicts, brain storming, sleepless PED nightmares soon became part of my life. From the surface, all seemed kinda scary but they added spices to my or else mundane life. Being busy and yearning for more than 24 hrs a day were good signs to me, cuz at least it numbed me from thinking of sad memories and gave me a brand new purpose in life.

No longer do I past each day like nothing had ever happened but yesh..is just me and my crazy madness to complete PED which propelled me to my ultimate goals. A friend once asked me whether I had goals in life. This seemed kinda cliche question but as I pondered and as she told me about her experience, I thought for a moment and hey, it's important and something which motivates us. And of cuz setting realistic and step by step goals were more effective.

For the past months, group mates' mood were foul especially having only 3 or 4 hours sleep each night. People barked and ranted in madness during discussion. And each time I got home, I felt even more helpless and despondent. But seriously, I have to thank my parents for their relentless support and patience. Because of them, I managed to get some good rest each night and have proper meals each time I came home with extreme hunger pangs. And of cuz YX for helping with the flash. Lolz~

Just watched another Japanese Movie called Okan To Boku To, Tokidoki, Oton (Tokyo Tower). A warm hearted and soul-searching movie that depicted a true story of a mother and son..and sometimes his father. Just loved this part of the movie which wrote something like " You held my hands when I was a young boy. And now it's time for me to hold your hands on your final days." Although it was a slow moving film but the chracter of the mother was so strong that I soon emphatized and was captivated by her character. Just love Japanese eiga and dorama to bits.

And my hamster is damn cute la..



Yesh..I can sleep sitting straight and still..I won't fall

Yawnz..pardon me. I am too shagged. Let me lean against the wall la.

A new 2008 has come and everyone has set their new year resolution. As usual, my resolution always don't come true so I have set some goals in life which are meant to be achieved step by step throughout the years to come. In few months time, everyone is gonna leave school. Is a very sad and depressing thing especially when it's time to say goodbye to dear friends and classmates which I have met in three years here. Some choices to make in life and I am gonna take the risky part to pursue my interest in life. Don't even know whether I can achieve though cuz everything seems beyond my reach. And should I have made this decision three years ago and listened to my mum, perhaps things would be easier. But as they said..life is full of surprises and trial and error.

Thinking of what I should do soon..to get a job, learn driving and to pick up new hobbies while awaiting further studies admission, provided I am a qualified candidate. Was wondering whether I should return to Setsco since Boss and HR Kelly told me that I can always return after I graduated or should I work in a new environment like in a office? But I had bad experience in my IA company for the first few months. I reckon I won't get a car since oil prices are soaring to $100 per barrel but is my mum's wish to drive her around Singapore for nice food and shopping. So let's await and put a halt to such plans first.

For the first time in my many years of taking buses, I was greeted by a bus driver who said good morning and thanks for boarding our bus on new year day. Erm..well, the bus driver was kinda geeky with his 80s look alike specs and gel centered-parting hair with braces. As I sat at the back of the bus, I was like WOW on how he greeted each passenger effortlessly as they boarded and alighted the bus. But..nobody bothered to greet or even smile and some even shunned away from him.

Received a health scare from one of family members. I was like so panicky la but things turn out fine. Just wanna say that I detest people who are too addicted to smoking and do not know their limits..especially visiting relatives and being engulfed in smoke. Can't be helped since chain smoker is part of our line of family's descent. Juz thinking that all things should be done moderately and not excessively. Lol~

Finally, FYP is gonna be over soon in few weeks time and everyone is equally shagged. Thanks to this project..I missed alot of my korean drama and of cuz The Golden Path. Golden Path is damn nice la, one of the best local drama production after so many years. Just luv all the characters inside this drama and seriously, this drama can fight with TVB drama.

Watched Aliens Vs Predator 2 => (Gross) on friday with classmates. The first part was exciting but it soon turned into a bore when these creatures started killing people continuously. Entered Kinokuniya like in dunno how many months and could have spent my whole day there. So many nice and new novels there.

On New Year Eve
