this is just some LTC outing photos we had on saturday, march 22nd
eunice organised an LTC outing last saturday for a dinner plus movie outing. there, we went to watch my much-awaited STEP UP 2!!! whee...it was a really nice show la though i dun understand why (and HOW?!) did chin ping manage to fall asleep when the song by Flo Rida - Low was so loud in the cinema and i was talking to her half the time during the show cos the movements were just so cool!! haha. the last part felt a little like a korean mv though cos there was this korean guy dancing in the rain..didnt know why i got that feeling..i suppose many of my friends didnt get why i had that feeling either! haha.
anw, after the show, we went to eat at a jap restaurant in the same building as The Cathay there. had loads of fun talking and yakking and gossiping and as usual, me trying to confuse lynette with whatever i said. anw, lynette says everything that is said that night will be kept between the 7 of us so its sacred i guess? haha. so SshHH! cant tell anyone. haha.
anw, we took plenty of pictures that night. here are some of them. the rest is still with lewis i guess. cant believe i forgot to bring my camera. more importantly, cant believe my LTC group is still going strong! whee!!
lynette, me, eunice and chin ping!
haha...we actually took these two shots in the toilet!! haha...dunno how long the boys waited for us outside the washroom. oOps!
took this after dinner at some jap restaurant (below) that eunice ordered a whole truckload of food to share with me! haha. gorging fiesta!
Picture of the Night...i LuuRRRVVEEE this picture!

i am so worned out by this university application thing la. i mean, yea, i really do hope i will get accepted into the university of my choice and into the course i want to go...as in i really really hope to but i have been trying to fill in the application forms for all of the 3 universities since dunno-when and till date, i have not successfully applied for a SINGLE UNIVERSITY in the WORLD! ARGH! and as you can tell, i am going insane. yep. going mad..mad till the extent that she actually smsed her boss at 11:38pm to complain how stress she was. and her boss actually comforted her. well done.
anyway, i took a day's leave tml to settle ALL that i haven't settled, signed up for ALL that i want to sign up and do ALL the things i want to do. in fact, i think 1 day is not enough. not unless i skip breakfast, lunch, dinner plus sleep. yes. i am not exaggerating. that is the amount of workload i have to do. but if 1 day isnt enough for me, and i take more than 1 day off work, i will be going back to my office with two days of undone work and that will be ALOT to do as well! plus i realised that i havent received my referral from my company yet! and i said i will need it by wednesday. so rightly speaking they should give it to me today or tml (when i am on leave).
this entry is like a dumping ground for me to vomit all my random thoughts that is causing me a headache the entire night and i think i have to come up with a check list in order to ensure that i do everything complete by tml plus breakfast, lunch, dinner and sleep.

Something distressing occurred recently. Talking about it makes me sufficiently disturbed and irritated. YOU! I HATE YOU! ARGH!!!!! I want you out of my life, my sight and most of all, MY FACE!!!! ARGGGHHHH!!!
STUPID IDIOTIC PIMPLES!!!!!!!! *screams* *wails*
And of all times you had to grow, you must grow during my office hours, while I am merrily working away..okay. Maybe not so merry. Haha. Ugh. Pimples pimples pimples. Two big ones congregating at the right side of my cheek and one more hiding behind my fringe. Yuck yuck yuck. I wont be surprise if my friends start commenting on it when I meet them later.

Brainstorming for Reasons for Pimples
- eating too much chocolates (c'mon la...if I don't eat, I will be writing reasons for stress instead. When I am stress, I binge. So let it be..let it be)
- okay. So in conclusion from the previous point, one of the reasons is because I am stressed.
- eating too much hello panda biscuits. More 6 packets in 2 days (no comments/ same as the above)
- touching keyboards then touching face (a very bad habit of mine :( but then again, who doesn't?)
- drinking insufficient fluids (hmmm, I've been drinking more lately le. Never mind, shall walk to the pantry more often then. there is a rather cute colleage there after all. actually there is two.)
- late night sleep (hmmm..fine fine. *grudgingly admits* 5am is really a little too late.)
- never wash off make up cleanly (I don't think so!)

In Conclusion, Reasons are ...
I am eating too much chocolates and hello panda-s. Basically, I am eating more than usual lately and its not just limited to the chocolates and hello panda-s. But I suppose these two snacks would be sufficient to cause havoc on my face. However, the realy underlying reason behind this gorging fiesta is due to the stress-es in my life recently.
Keyboards are known to be more deadly in terms of germs than a toilet bowl hence its ironical that the thought of touching a toilet bowl and then touching my face makes me squirm but the thought of touching the keyboard and subsequently touching my face doesn't make me cringe - at all. But nonetheless, I shall make an effort to stop touching my face unneccessarily. *touch face* STOP IT! *touch face again*
I slept at 6pm in the evening on Saturday night when most of the world are partying the night away and woke up at 8am the next day. Been sleeping early recently so keep up the good habit I guess. So it can't be sleeping late since the pimple only popped up today. Ugh. But time seems so little and life seems so fruitless when you work 3/4 of the day away and spend the next 1/4 doing nothing but sleep.
I do the necessary for removing make-up. I shall not dwell further on that. Haha.
And lastly, I thought of the most important and hence, valid reason forthe popping up of pimples. I have not exercised since the week before this chinese new year.

train of thoughts in a thinking bubble

many things have been happening in my life recently. its like a morning train, where people at squashed in every part of the cabin and there is absolutely NO breathing space? yea. that is kinda how my brain is functioning currently. Work is definitely getting more hectic with commision reports being churned out at the speed of lightning. and more calls are coming in for my section leader who is on leave so although speaking to people from bank of america, luxemburg, london, DBS finance, etc etc is kinda cool, it is also very stressful if you realise that you are speaking to pretty influential and powerful people of status here. anw, *touch wood* so far everything is going fine and i am trying my best to keep up with the work schedule without appearing like a headless chicken or a haggard housewife.

A levels results is finally out about one week ago. everyone is debating which course to go, what to do and which uni to attend. nonetheless, since i am a student, i have to be thinking about the same things as well. so what course shall i go? what do i want to do? and which university should i attend or rather, can attend? over the past two years, especially within these few days, my passion for different courses have been running wild and jumping from health sciences to social sciences to comm studies to business to accountancy to business and finance. well, one thing for sure, it is not an option that i should cancel out comm studies. my dad suggested a few things that were quite to my liking over dinner and i will try discussing with a few of my closer frenz, teachers i am comfortable with, colleagues and relatives before i make my final decision.

working world has definitely opened my eyes to see people clearer and better. perhaps some may say that i have changed, for better or for worse, but i think overall its a good effect on me. of course, some people may say others changed because they cannot stand that person becoming better so they say they become worse and there will be those who say others have become better when in reality that person has become worse because they like to see them going further downhill in life. then of course, there will always be those that tell you truthfully, point-blank in the face your pros and cons. working has allowed me to see that backstabbing is not only confined to the box you turn on every day to watch drama series and news. it is reality and it has dawned on me that it really existed. the only thing in contrast is that in real life, you cannot throw your popcorn or yell curses at the backstabber like you always do in front of the TV, which is very scary. i must say the talk i had with one of my dearest teachers has enlightend me a great deal. he probably wun rmb what he said to me but he is those kind of teachers that says little but when you ponder over the few sentences he says, it will have a big impact on you. so thank you mr joshua ng, though you are prolly not here to notice. and of cos, another to thank is ms melissa kwok. my two dearest teachers. and of course the rest shall be found in IJ. actually only one, and i miss her quite much.
but on a lighter note, it is heartening to note that my department aint that much as bad as i described above. they are nice and caring and though fierce and stern in their own ways, great colleagues. so i am contented.
i shall be going to NUS with neetha tomorrow.
i feel happy to be with her. yay.
she is one of those that will point-blank tell you your pros and cons, unless she knows the person will make a big fuss abt the cons she says...em..yea. me. so heh heh...*sheepish look* haha.
