Wish List 2012

Last year, I wished for an iPod touch with an engraving. I got an iPod Nano from ex bosses.

I wished for a skin care system that is natural and friendly to my sensitive skin. I had a bad experience earlier this year and was forced to switch to something else. Thanks to bff, Shirley's recommendation to use Cetaphil. My skin is getting much better on top of the frequent consultation from the dermatologist.

I wished for a diary year 2011 and I was given one when I report to work. So, I can cross that out as well.

Down to two things that are not in my possession yet: a pin up drawing of myself and a Christmas log.

This time, I am giving up on the Christmas log. It is just too silly to wish for something like that at this age. *uh hum*

My new public wish list:-

1. Lytro Camera (http://www.lytro.com/)

Yes, it may look funny but this little camera can do wonders! Notice the above baby picture? You can just change the focus the picture with one click! Try it out yourself here.

2. Mac Book Air

This is a consequential request. Visuals from Lytro camera can only be processed by Mac :P

3. Smart for two

Wanted the car in the longest time I can think of. Perhaps since the day I lay my eyes on it.

Many of you may not know, I am quite a fan of Hello Kitty. Bla bla bla...

4. A trip to Bali

I love islands because I long for beaches. This year, I want to be spend a week in Bali.

5. 5 high heels

*Pictures are for illustration purpose only. Don't think I can even stand properly with the heart shape heels

[Movie Reflection] One Day

I have abandoned this place for a while. I know. I know...

Watched another movie on my own last night and this time, I really could not sleep.

There was no true friendship. They were madly in love with each other.

There was no rules. They were meant to be broken anyhow.

The moment when you walked past me, I know we will be together as long as I breath.

Realization came much later than expected and only time can heal. I am sure you will cure me out of you.

XOXO

Remembering Baba and Nyonya

Remembering Baba and Nyonya.

My memory of watching their dramas is fading. Somehow when I heard people saying things about Baba and Nyonya, I recalled Uncle Chee and Kenny.

The last time I saw the duo, as most of us did, was in Nasi Lemak 2.0. I was reminded of how humorous they are. I was once again brought back to the times when I watched their shows in front of the 14 inch TV set.

After Nasi Lemak 2.0, I went back home and was yapping away about how little I was when I used to watch their dramas. Boyfriend said he saw them once in a wedding dinner before. At the moment, I told myself that I want them to host my wedding reception too!

Duo no more. Uncle Kenny is left alone. RIP Uncle Chee. I <3 you

Good bye, my friend.

Warning! This is a super emo post.

May 12. I wrote him an email. I told him about the wisdom teeth and the visits to dentist.

May 13. He wrote back. Bitter and angry.

May 13. Another email. I poured my heart out and perhaps said the things I have been keeping with me for years.

May 14. "We can talk until everything is resolved" he said.

May 23. He wanted an answer if anything is happening.

May 23. I was reluctant and fearful.

May 24. Email replied. He said, "go in peace"

May 25. Alex, I wish you well.

New Job - Day 2

It has been a while since the last time I blog. Just couldn't discipline myself to do just that at least weekly.

Yesterday was my first day to the new job. I know the change is great in regards to the nature of the job, I am very glad I am here today.

I wanna thank my best friend, Sin Zi for this. As she was on the lookout for her first job, I was helping her to keep an eye on Jobstreet. I was doing the search and found this job ad. To my dismay, they actually called me in for an interview. I am more than contented now.

I have to say that the culture here is of great difference from the previous. Here, they speak whatever it goes up to their mind. With that, I mean to say that they say ANYTHING. Sitting opposite of my cubicle is the graphic designers. Behind them is the PR peeps. I think I feel like home already...

Anyhow, I treasure the experiences I obtained from the past five months looking at numbers.

I am blogging this as the lunch time passes.

June Days Have Gone

First day of July. Time for recap:-

1. I met Ar Chan who hosted my favorite childhood variety show. What's more? He's bf's uncle!

2. I went for the second job interview in my life.

3. I yawned almost 50 times in one day.

4. Saw the wedding of the century between a middle aged Chinese man and a young Malay lady.

5. I had most pimples this month.

6. I attended the first Malay wedding in my life.

7. I hung out almost once a week with my Penang friends which I thought we would not do the same if we were to be in Penang.

Very uneventful. I almost thought it never exists. Lolz.

New Job

Stressful. Very stressful.

Today, I finally can breath a lot easier. I have secured it. Whether or not it serves me well. I know I can stay at least for a while there.

"It" is the new job!

When they called me, I was munching the caesar salad and talking to a new friend in O'Briens.

"Hi, I am calling from XXX regarding your application."

Me, *I got signed up meh?* "Erm, do you think you can call me back later? I am meeting a friend right now."

30 minutes later,

" Hi, I am calling from XXX. Can you come for interview on Thursday night at 8pm?"

Me, *What?!?!* "Do you think I can get back to you regarding this? I will call you at this number?"

"Sure. I will send you an email with the address and details."

Me, *still surprised* "Thanks a lot!"

I quickly logged on to Jobstreet and there I am, applied for too many positions till I do not remember exactly which is which.

I went for the interview of course.

I did not expect anything, really. I wanted to keep my promise which I made three months ago.

After Thursday night, I kept thinking about it. I even dreamt about it!


Praise to Lord, I got it!!!
