long time no blog. blog, u miss me or not? i don't miss u. if i had missed u.. would i be here blogging at all? haha... *lame. that's what my work place has trained me to me. a "lamatic".
anyway.. have been working. selling lifebooks.
after working there.. i've learnt something about materialistic human beings. usually... people are not contented with what they have. they want things that they do not need. yet that thing is something that will make them be looked upon. they wants things that they can show it off to others, yet they do not have the money to purchase such things. hm. what am i saying. the bottom line is... no money then dont buy. the more u look at it, the more u wanna buy. but you dont have the resources to purchase that product. so why bother??? u'll feel extremely insecure.
i think i noticed a trend in big sized men. they seem to be buayas. like desperados like that. got girlfriend still keep going online to chat up girls through dating web communities, or friendster, irc.. watever. hate such guys.. bo bian lar. i've faced this kinda guy for 7 days already. cant stand it. actually it's the way he treats me that makes me feel like punching him. bloody hell.. want me to sell more things still give me that kinda fukt up face when i ask him questions. go drink pee!
hrmph. but i'm still happy living the life that i have now... hehehe
cant wait for school to start!!!
ah mah says i'm looking more and more like a balloon.. nice hor. anyone wanna burst me? pay $20. anyone wanna blow more air into me?? free. lolx. it's the "lamatic" syndrome.

Back
it's been 3 days since i came home. seriously, nowhere's like home. home's still the best place. finally, i can kiss and hug my dog..
i realised. i hate it when people say "lor" all the time. like.. "i find it very dainty LOR. i cant keep my eyes off it LOR" if one were to say "oh.. i'm doing some work lor" then it's fine. but so many "lors" make one look/sound like some smart pants, it sucks..
anywayz... went to this recruit company yesterday. went to look for a job. but will have to wait for their reply. and they're takin so long. well.... will just keep myself occupied packing my room and helpin at my aunt's shop. it's extremely boring here... am currently editing some graphics for her website. and she wants me to like change a golden diamond bracelet.. want me to change the chain holding those diamonds together to white gold. yucks.. so chim. makes those stones so insignificant. but well, she's the boss!
okie.. got some yandao policemen walking around.. haha... must be having some event tonite.
k gtg..

Home-Coming. WHERE'S THE PARTY??!!!
lolz.. my last nite here, in sunny queensland!! it's funny how the temperature differs in the day and night. it's scorching hot this afternoon. 32 degrees, and i think it's still spring - ending. heard it'd be 45 degrees in summer!! GOODNESS. that's bloody HOT. it aint warm. what's singapore compared to this man? this is like sauna. there aint any bit of moisture at all. not humid. is it good or bad? i can't make up my mind. but hell.. i'm goin off in 15 hours, so why bother eh? oh back to my point.. it seems like 20 degrees now. coolin.. see the difference? a hell lot. it's crazy.
well, we had a farewell gift.. though no farewell party. this dog. huge dog. it looked like a german sherperd, but kinda mixed breed. husky? felt like one. anyway will upload the pics later. probably in a few days time.. anyway... this dog.. came to pay us a visit. i think it was playin around with some decomposed animal in the bushes. cos when it came to us.. it's breath stank. and.. the smell seemed to have come from the bushes as well. it's a pretty good dog. tamed. followed us. asked it to sit, it obeyed. very nice.. and we fed it some leftover food. hm. yeah.. it was heartwarming to see it.. haha
going home tomorrow... i have this whole mixture of feelings inside me now. of course, i'm extremely lookin forward to it.. it has been so for the past 3 months. that's the only thing to have kept me going for 3 months. haha... i dont know why am i so eager to get back. is it because singapore is my homeland or is it that i just miss my dog? i feel so sinful thinking of my dog every single moment.. and not a single human being. okay i admit. i do think about my family and cookie once in a while. perhaps... 5:1.. dog:human.
come to think of it.. i'm kinda scared and nervous to face my parents. will have to come up with a financial report.. stating what i have been doing to that money. haha.. my folks will kill me. i can just imagine their faces!! haha.. dont worry financial department aka investors of ke ying inc ..i'll pay u back.
u have no idea how great it will be to be back home. haha.. and i have no idea how to explain.

last hurrah
i know i'm a day overdue to rejoicing my last hurrah - but hey, i'm still in the mood. guess what? we've handed over our project! -finally- i mean hey that was 2 long boring months of work!!!!! it could be done in a matter of.. probably 1 month. but all that dragging made us so irritated and bored. but i'm glad it's over.. WE ARE GLAD. lol. we had our presentation yesterday.. it was an unprepared one. can you imagine presenting to the whole tute of white men unprepared??? helluva cool eh.. i'd have to say they guys were good. i mean ly and mick. they did it smoothly while me, as usual.. gabra-ed at the beginning. but it soon got better. haha.. it was so emotional as i took a picture with robyn our tutor. ahha she's so cool!!! i asked her what did she feel. and she said... i wasn't too quiet. she felt that usually she's being too loud and talkative. which is too much at times. haha.. that's why she's cool =)
and after that we had our "product launch".. where people involved in the production came to look at our work. was weird watching ppl scrutinize your work in front of you eh!! but we didn't have any complaints. *phew. that's the difference between white men and singaporeans. not too sure about other nationalities. but the impression is that singaporeans critisize a lot and don't give much logical ideas. that includes me.
anyways.. was thinking back the days when i just came here. i think my life is an interesting one. somehow.. even though i'm already 19, i feel that everyday is a different day. i get fascinated by the things around me. there's something new to see and to learn each day. and if i were to describe how i view life, i'd say it's colorful. is that optimism? or is it somethin else? i get so irked when i see negativity in the people around me. when i see unhappiness, grumps.. watever that i deem as "negative", i hate. gee.. i dont know. i just felt like talking about life.... when i think of my family, my dog, my friends, my loved ones.. and alot of the things i see never fail to trigger my "life is wonderful" mood.. haha.. well actually. the bottom line is.. I CANT WAIT TO GO HOME.
happy birthday to the one and only woman i love.. my mum =) love u tubs, tonnes, oceans, air

YES!! Juz A WEEK more!!!
oh boy i'm simply ELATED to go back home!!! awww.... miss everyone at home!!! hiakz...
anywayz... havent been blogging for a few days.. yes lydia, it's just like 4 days la!!! cos i went to gold coast. it was nothing much really... i just enjoyed my stay in the apartment we booked. and also the sun and the beach. the waves were awesome, but i still loved those at monterey, ca. those were much better than the ones on surfer's paradise. yeah, we went to surfer's. then.. went down to dreamworld as well. the entry tix were arhm.. $58 per person? but it's for unlimited rides. arhm.. i have to say. it's really unfair and also.. not worth it for people like me to visit theme parks. why? cos.. i puke easily. i can't go on rides that turn round and round. i can just puke after like.. the most, 4 rides?? people can like go for 10 rides and still smile. man i felt so bad the whole day after taking so many rides. well, wasn't a lot la... but the rides were all like goin round and round. will upload some videos when i have the chance. man when we went back to our apartment, i was like so tired i fell asleep almost instantly.. and the moment i closed my eyes, i could see myself on one of those damned rides. and felt like puking again. argh!! weakling! but wat to do? i'm born like that. haha.. sit car also can vomit.
oh the apartment.. it was really comfy... we played table tennis, tennis - i think i'm gonna start tennis when i get back!!! it's helluva crazy sport! haha.. NICE!!! yeah.. and there was this jacuzzi... but it was kinda dirty and the massage jets weren't strong and the water aint warm enough. yah.. but it was quite an enjoyment la. i'm sure the guys loved the spa!!! they were faithful spa-goers. haha... like mick said "suntan, spa. suntan, swim. suntan. spa...etc."
some pics we took at gold coast..
nice sunrise.. at surfers'. pic taken by mick =) good fotographer eh~
and the guys are sitting on this thing called the "vomatron". it's like a giant propeller. it's 40m high and travels at a speed of 120km/hr. cool eh... bloody fast. but i felt like i was in heaven. haha...it was kinda cool. hey.. i'm a brave girl - i sat alone!!! if u're thinkin of goin, it's at palm ave, surfer's paradise, gold coast =) helpin them do some advertising.. haha.. it's worth it!!!
yeah the 2nd and 3rd row's some.. tidal wave ride. i dare not ride that cos i was on the verge of vomitting. plus.. just had my lunch of a foot's long hotdog. haha..
the last pic's "The Crawl".. new ride introduced. it's like a huge swing that's like 9 storeys high. was kinda fun.
elvis impersonator. actually he couldn't really sing nor play. he played crap. his main job was to scare people. first he stood real still.. then when he saw ppl unaware.. he started strumming and singing real loud and fast. haha.. very successful. quite a lot of ppl got scared.
