Back with a vengeance..

2009-02-19T23:44:00.000-08:00

Who says im gone forever? Oh well, no one said that. But honestly speaking im back to update my blog..yet again...=+= Haha!! Downright this shows im ultra ignorant about blogging and blogging is seriously an indication that im in a feel-like-ranting kinda mood.. :)

Have u peeps watched Slumdog Millionare?! Cause ill give not 2 but 3 thumbs up to that movie..That's if i had another thumb. Haha! I trully love how original the idea is n the thought-provocating process of the movie..It really does make me ponder the saddened states of the families in rural India..Seeing the kids being exploited to do labour, crushes my inner ego..Why ego? Cause i use to feel irritated n unsatisfied when doing household chores n not get any credit for it..or even worse labelled me as a lazy-bump etc. Trust me, those were the days..One will soon grow out of it..:P Moving on, i especially like it how the producers combined so many meaningful morals into 1 movie..which spans roughly an hr or so..Courage, determination, empathy, love, respect, greed etc..That's the thing about Asian movies n stories..They are full of morals..hurrhurr

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button --> Watch it n u waste time n money OR Just forget about it..

Oh well, its basicly a rant of sypnosim of an excellent movie which i would like to share with u..heehee :D

Embracing Ramadhan

2008-09-12T03:53:00.000-07:00

It's coming to the 12th day of Ramadhan or Fasting Month. Already the Bazaar at Geylang is adorned with Selamat Hari Raya decorations & not to forget the liberating scent of food & more food..Yep! Muslims do embrace Ramadhan every year with pure faith &celebration..especially when the time comes for buka or breaking fast.

As for me, Ramadhan has always been a month of blessings..I'm truly greatful of what i have today.. :)

Anyways, my lil' cute hamsters - Tania & Hammie..are beginning to like other food aside as the oh-so-boring nuts that those pet shops sell..After introducing them to carrots and Oats that is.. :) Thankfully, Hammie's fur grew back after the carrot's diet..

Oh well, my mum n i have been cooking up a storm in the kitchen eversince Ramadhan..Thinking of what to eat everyday for our pre-dawn meal n breaking fast is really exciting..Hahaha.. =_=!

~To all Muslims..Wish u all a Ramadhan full of blessings..~

I'm still Alive!!

2008-09-03T00:10:00.001-07:00

Back from isolation..Back from self-realization..Thanks for reminding me constantly to update my Spartan blog..Well, not to worry..I'm well and still kicking.. :) Reason for my unprecedented silence is due the fact that I'm going through this really weird happenings in my life..Not going to tell you..But now, I'm over it.. :P Perhaps after a couple of years then I'll have the mood to let it all out..Blearghh..

If I'm Irritatingly unresponsive in this blog..& u really miss me like as if ur willing to end ur life cause ur dying to contact me..Just go to my Friendster..(Hopefully, those smiley pixs are there to entertain u)..or just beep me yea.. :P

Can we actually haf true frenship in the workplace?

2008-06-26T18:51:00.000-07:00

Last day of my work & still i have lots to learn about working life. Its true that friendship at work is impossible..I meant true friendship especially when ur working hand in hand with the other party. I went to clarify with Adrian bout the additional participants in the recent CRO Eng PT class. So Adrian sent an email JUST TO CLARIFY with PCY & Ferly. Not surprising, both were unsatisfied. Ferly claimed she gave the excel to me but wen i checked, those additnal names were in the FT column. So its proven tt admin is doin the right thing. & PCY was mad too. Poor adrian who has to absorb all these. Its nt our fault at all. We juz wanna clarify. Tts why, true frenship is hard at work.

Oh well, at least now im smacked w reality.

& i'm gg off. . . :)

Inspirational Farewell Lunch

2008-06-25T23:15:00.000-07:00

Had a great lunch at Swensens with GAO, Ben & Emiline. Thks Emiline for the wonderful scarf & Thks to everyone for the treat! :P The Chicken Baked Rice tasted bland, even pepper didnt help much. Haha. But i was inspired by Emiline & Ben's success stories. How they graduated overseas & clinched 2nd upper honours..I think we should not rush into education but more importantly think through first before deciding where we really wanna go. Well, if others can do it, i shall learn from them. Haha! What's the point of going to NUS or NTU & having to compete like anything & in the end we need to face Qota etc. No doubt that Time waits for No Man. But then again, Making the right decisions & fulfilling it is definitely a better gratification. :)

Thks Aidah & James Yee for the wonderful chocolates & card. :)

Happy B'day to Me!!& 2nd yr Anni..

2008-06-18T18:10:00.000-07:00

Time really flies..now im 19!! Haha! :D HAPPY 2nd Yr too..ehemm..This year has been both moving &glorious. So much i've learnt &plenty i've discovered..Most importantly i learnt not to look back at failure as a burden from hastening my success.. :) That took me lotsa courage..Hahah!!

I've created a card specially for our 2 yrs..Thurs night, we manage to dine at Pizza Hut..How sweet it is when we exhanged cards..Thks for the wonderful necklace.. :) I was very tired that day due to work..But at least i had enough energy to cast a smile.

To my surprise GAO presented me with a Powerpuff Girls cake &wonderful card..Haha! Thks Carol for planning all this..I'm very touched :')

Counting down to the 27th now..Another glorious &moving event i'm soo looking forward to. :)

I feel gooodd..

2008-06-09T19:12:00.000-07:00

Nothing beats a heartwarming & sincere comments from ppl bout u. Personally, CC has been a great motivator n inspiration to me. Thanks for recognizing my efforts all this while :). & 2 GAO, u peeps are the wackiest, craziest n ofcourse ultimately my motivation.Seeing ur smiles rilly make time flies.Haha!

Ysterday, peeping Tom was on the loose. Too bad, we failed to catch him. Hopefully, 1day his eyes will pop out so he can't do such disgraceful acts anymore. :P

Out on her own..

2008-06-04T19:14:00.000-07:00

Last night, my family & i sent off my sis (Eheh)at the airport. She's going on a trip to Japan sponsered by her school. Wonderful isn't it? How i wish i can travel. Haha! Without forking out a single cent for my tix except for lodging. & yea..we came back home at 12 plus &i slept at nearly 2 am! HAhah! I'm super duper hungry, i ate RICE &other stuff in the middle of the night. WTH. Dont worry..i wont grow a single inch of blubber. Haha! But downright i was a zombie the next day. Going to work seems like dreamland.. Haha! :)

Being nice is wrong..being serious is wrong..i think its time i should not rily care wat others think of me or how im suppose to act when im with them..i wanna be comfortable in my own opinions n take my stand..no Buts no more..Well, i guess im too forgiving tats y..ppl like those yayapapayas who think tat the whole world is controlled by them tend to take me (a small fly) foregranted..Yea~ i know they have higher qualifications so cherios to them..then again, to gain respect is to EARN it..They cnt possibly expect ppl to respect them if they dun spare a thought about their own responsibilities n their scope of work..undeniable true that, the higher u go..the more jobs u have..n u cnt possibly juz push work to those under u..To top it off, they will blame u if anything goes wrong..so its like a favour done for them in the end got backstabbed..Ouch! i hope from here i get to equipt myself to face more challenges in the real workforce..N a piece of advice for them: A leader is someone who leads to inspire others. Who's not self-centered &never turn their backs away from their fellowers..U noe wat, i so wanna shake hands with them after i gotten my position n to see their fake smiles..n im gonna tell them..this is the same person u have tugged n trashed..Now, im in par or better then u..n u bet, they have to somehow learn things from me..Karma will somehow do its job.. *all smiles*

Money Mind..

2008-05-11T21:01:00.000-07:00

Gosh! I so need to save &scringe every penny from now onwards..Since I'm no longer a govt. student..the transportation $ is rilly sucking up my wallet dry..Haha!

2008-04-22T20:54:00.000-07:00

Yet another Earth Day..Yet another sappy moment for us Earthlings to grief what's there left on our Mother Earth..& the next moment, we are all back to our own lives and Earth Day as the name itself sound: EARTHED! Yea..we constantly put it at the back of our minds & wen the next Earth Day comes, we spare It a thought..Hmm..Well, this may sound bias to some of u..But Hey, i bet the new turbo engines of that snazzy car is downright appealing..BAM!!! Wake up Sleepy Heads..NOnoNo..Not sleepy, they are simply economic-driven, materialistic & $$-powered..Blame the US or China or Australia for the AnthropOgenic emissions..Blame Tom-Dick-Harry for blasting CO2 into our atmosphere..Reality is, Stop It! Stop trying to blame others wen u urself can make a difference.at least. Simple things like switching off fans,aircon..Walk or cycle & dun show off ur bloody twin engines for juz a short distance..Ain't it? Personally, i'm scared..already my generation the ice caps are so thining &major disasters keep coming (like there's not enuf distruction in this world..terrorists?!)..Poor polar bears who will lose their habitat..Poor Us!We put this burden on ourselves..&Earth is experiencing GAIA..Tats it for us when Earth began to change & adapt 2 climate changes..cuz we Earthlings can't adapt..so we..we..DIE?? Yes, we do Darlings..we do..Check out Heatwave..we die..Hurricane Katrina (eg.) we die..etc..So..Think About It..Think

Bumpy Issue

2008-04-15T19:54:00.000-07:00

The last thing crazy and ridiculous that i ever wanted to find out about myself is seafood & MSG intolerance! Haha! So yes, ultimately i'll turn into a bumpy pinky furball if i got those "things" shoved down my throat. Talk about such delicate appetite i have. Anyways, 2 days back i was at work busy digging my nose into the monitor. Few mins later, i sense itchiness on both my elbows. So Hey i thought it may be the dust that i got from the printer room. AND those irritating bumps got bigger. WTH. They subside once i reached home. Next day i got it again & this time they cn be seen on both my knees and ankles and even wrist. Sad thing is i was already at work & now i've to go back to vist my doc. Apparently, these aliens surfaced under such cold environment like the aircon. Weird. So the doc. prescribed me calamine lotion & some other junkies to deal with. Haha. Looking back at it i realized ive sipped chicken rice soup on Sun & again on Mon. Perhaps the chicken stock used is filled with filthy MSG!& there goes the story of my Bumpy Issue!

Empty Hearts

2008-04-09T23:16:00.000-07:00

By: Khairani

They say Time makes,
the heart grow founder.
But blind time ticks,
when others don't bother.

Oh! Where are you love,
when the tides clashed.
For this heart served,
hidden tales and stashed.

When the sun sets its pace,
amidst the morning dew.
This heart filled with solace,
wishing if it'll be ever new.

Oh! Where are you love,
for this heart yearns.
Your body and soul, love,
before it'll burnt.

They said empty minds,
the nest of devils.
But are empty hearts,
the works of marvels?

Oh! Where are you love,
for i'm drowned in melancholy.
Summoned your wings, love,
before death ceased its melody.

Bury me alive,
and this heart will breathe.
Bury me dead,
and it will weep.

Oh! The drama amidst the pain,
the open wound ashes of urns.
Tell me now if this His ordained,
Or simply this heart cursed and blamed?

P.S: This is for you, love.

Lost in translation

2008-04-08T19:34:00.000-07:00

By: Khairani

In the midst of time,
so hactic and confused.
Lay me in translation,
Lost and bemused.

Beneath the veneer of bravery,
i strive to stand.
For its in deep slavery,
i knew time will not tell.

As the grey cast creeps,
the pales of morals.
Engulf in solitude i weep,
wishing life full of florals.

To drift the Unquestionable,
sets me in a fix.
Intertwine withes unbreakable,
ending up in grief and fists.

Behold the Light from above,
took me in His arms.
Cradled and all things loved,
so disturbed yet so calm.

For i'm not a woman,
Neither i am a sprout.
I am lost in translation,
have you not doubt?

The world began to enclose,
exposing the malicious intent.
Procastination i suppose,
but who cares what's then.

Thou shall not end here,
for Life's greater riches.
Juggernauts of all spheres,
Oh dear, yet again i'm lost..
Lost in Translation

How time flies

2008-04-03T17:50:00.000-07:00

Yep! Without realizing we are now in the month of April. For me, it's either i'm too busy or too carefree to even take notice. Anyway, i shall just sum up the thrills, excitement & sorrows that have been peeping in my life for the past month.

Ermmm....

Ermm..

Erm..???

Err..This is hard..Let's just say life is not all about classifying the events; happy or sad.. It's all about experiences u may have gain but never actually remember them.. Haha!

What is really intriguing to me is the weather these days. At times its raining Cats & Dogs, at times its scorching hot!! Cannot tahan la..Yesterday, it was so dead boring at work. Everyone is held up for meeting with the Grinch(director)..So, i was all alone outside mending the reception counter. For 3 hours, i warm my seat, sing a song, pay a visit to the toilet etc..U don't wanna know what else i've done! And to top it of, it was raining heavily & flashes of light can be seen in the office. I was mortified. That moment, i so wanna wrap myself with my bedsheet & just SLEEP..HAHA!

Sigh~~I'm missing someone so badly lately..I know this may sound random to u but i really do miss him so much. The calls..The company..The smiles.. :( Well, that's life.

Ponder

2008-03-30T19:36:00.000-07:00

"Teens these days are getting more rebellious.."
"Friends are much highly regarded than parents as parents simply won't listen.."

Hmm..These quotations can be heard of frequently these days. I so agree. Splashed on papers and news are stories of all sorts of teenage deliquencies; crime, bullying, smoking and even rampant sex. Well, i'm not going to dwell on this issue (It's not GP my dears) But im just pondering..

Personally, i do have my rough days with my parents..err..more like my mom..cause my dad, his too weird too even care (not in the bad way). Well, i do love them to bits but at times there's simply no or lack of communication between us. Why? Certain issues i tried to iron out with them, they won't budge you see. As a 19-year-old, i use to think that i should have a say and my own human rights. I know this is hard especially for a girl like me. Not yet working..Not yet have a family of my own..n still depend on my parents for everything! However, the small voice in me is so persistent to speak up! No human being will ever feel satisfied if their views are not taken into account. Not yet consider. I mean with all due respect, please..at least listen..U never knew what ur child has to say before u began screaming and make judgements (for which they are not real)..I'm most sadden by this and disappointed..As mature adults,educated & all things brilliant, i think they should potray a better role model. I know they have their reasons for doing as such. As for my dad, his a cartoon..Amidst the noisy environment, he'll be sinking in the sofa watching TV or at times flying to dreamland. Weird. All he could say was "Chill..Everything will b fine tomorrow"..What?!

As usual, everything will be so "fine" the very next day. As if nothing has happened yesterday. Oh, Come on! U can't run away from reality. U see, some adults (not all i hope!) thought that if they shut their kids up, everything will be in control. The egoistic demon in them simply wanna prove their point that they are parents so LISTEN! Phhlzz, those tactics are way passe. In this modern times, we sit, talk, negotiate..what have u..

Perhaps, this is one of the underlying reason for the problems that society is facing now. Generation Gap. No communication. No trust. Well, i'm not sure myself..

[Keep Pondering]

Me.No.Pause.

2008-03-23T20:08:00.000-07:00

Someone..Please enlighten me..

Lately, the world seems to go berserk.

The world = Back at home

Apparently, i simply couldn't understand the sudden mood changes that's happening to my mom.

Oh well, she's turning 50 soon...which means...she's undergoing MENOPAUSE??!!

I guess it's true afterall..Gosh, i just have to bear the excrutiating wailing everyday.

Sometimes she felt as if i was being rude to her perhaps the tone of my voice but by right, i was only reminding her..And out came the scolding..Sigh

It hurts alot mind you but i (us=family) will just have to tolerate.

At times, she will have doubts on my whereabouts but she wasn't like this before you see..

i do cried. shed some tears . But i can't help it that i'm sensitive. Luckily there's support thanks to him..thanks to eheh n nad..hee~

Weird thing is, sometimes she behave so strangely like a baby..Yea! You know, the kind that seeks attention..Totally out of this world :S..

[What's Ur Problem?]

Work Blues

2008-03-20T01:57:00.000-07:00

Yea..Work Blues rather than Monday Blues..I guess being a temp. staff is not entirely enjoyable at all. It can be both ways good and bad.

The good part is:
+ Ur not responsible for any mishap whatsoever
+ U have a routine job. (easypeasyjapaneseey)
+ U don't need to dress up (like to the Oscars) everyday to work..like, hello..who's going to notice us anyway..

and..

The bad fart (part) is:
+ Exploitation of manpower
+ Putting petty blame on us
+ Extortion of Authority (I mean what's that again..??)
+ Irritating customers who just want things to go their way

so yeahh..U peeps should get what i mean..

<Period>

A Fresh Start

2008-03-12T23:49:00.000-07:00

I know this might sound crazy to some of you. But i'm not usually the kind who blogs and write journals. However, just to try something new. Why not blog? Hahaa..

Anyway, a fresh new blog should depict a fresh new start in my life. Somehow, i've done cramming or so to say gone through my horrible A's. Now, i'm just growing white hair waiting for my admission to You know Where..Hopefully, God has grace on me and to all others who are in the same boat as me! :)

At the moment, being a receptionist is not that bad for a temporary job. Although, the work is super mundane despite the ultra easygoing workload. It's more like routine. Having said that, ironically i am working now while typing this entry..hAha!! Thankfully, the office is pretty small. :) Well, infact i should consider myself kind of lucky as right smack infront of me is a LCD TV. Though, no such programs like Spongebob that i can entertain myself with..Hehee..

Life is pretty simple for me. Having to live under the same roof with 3 other siblings and my wonderful parents, i've learnt so much from them. Well, there's too much things to say.. You'll get it along the way.

Cherios! :)
