Sunday is here! Went for a short run... and outran my sis.
Its kinda quiet around after awhile. Nice and peaceful... if only everyday is as such.
Nice chat with everbody today on MSN. Hmm talked alittle with a friend in church. Like why i worry... i already 1 year and a half ahead of everyone else. *Sigh*
I feel so drowned already... ...
*one don't drown in one problem.. but a pool of problemS
Last week of work was erm... kinda exciting? Like got soap opera happening literally behind my back. Being in the world but not of the world is difficult.
I may not have been able to socialise well with the pple... but i do know for sure i left an unspoken impression. What do i mean?
Well.. i was talking to Y the other day regarding work. Instead of saying the 4 letter word in front of me... it became Fff... FREAK! Wonder how that came out that way. Anyway, just keep praying... pray and pray and pray... and He will make a way.
Interesting bite of the day: Reality can be hard to swallow... but somehow our stomach digests everything...

CNY Symbolics
Tangerines, Oranges, Pomelos: Tangerines and oranges are frequently displayed in homes and stores. Tangerines are symbolic of good luck, and oranges are symbolic of wealth. These Chinese New Year symbols have developed through a language pun, the word for tangerine having the same sound as "luck" in Chinese, and the word for orange having the same sound as "wealth". Pomelos are large pear-shaped grapefruits.

CNY blooper
Kinda hillarious... went for visitation today... first visitation was in the evening. Everybody had something on their mind.
We were half way in the journey when my sis suddenly blurted out, where are the oranges? Gosh... we remembered the hong baos, to dress in bright nice colours but forgotten the ORANGES!
So... we travelled all the way back.
It was nice to talk to pple... especially the old uncle and aunties. They try to talk to us. Like there was this uncle. I never actually talk to him... but i know he watches a whole lot of tv. He taught me and my sis a trick, one with a ring and a string. Haha... it was really cool. I had to do it a couple of times before suceeding... Very patient... and he learnt it from TV! How cool is that?!
Very amusing uncle. Thank you Uncle. You made this visitation so much more interesting than just collecting hong baos and watching chinese shows.
Oh i also went for a jog today with my sis and mother. It was nice to be out with them... never had a chance to do this becoz of our different activities. Really great to do stuff as such. It rained half way... forced us to run for shelter... haha we really did run with whatever energy we had. Sure was refreshing *pant*pant* It's nice to spend time with my family.
One more public holiday before work... last day of rest. Have to discipline myself to dedicate my time to God as well... time management... a constant struggle.

Reunion Dinner
Unpredictable... but yes, i'm sick AGAIN! THis time... G pass one it on. Sore throat hurts like crazy. This morning all i had was the sore throat but now it is now it has gone from just sore throat to bad headaches. Ouch!!!~~~~
Good food but no mood to savour each and every delicacy.
G is going back to Brissy Brissy.. ... miss him? Yea... of course i will... but what other options are there? Such are the circumstances of life that we have to accept... there must be something to learn out of this... something that we'll find out along this long journey.
Right now, there's a couple of things just firing up in my head.
Job, Love, Family... ... and of course God.
Everyday is a different story, everyday a role has to be played.

2nd day of independent working
Let's see... today is 2nd day of independent working. So far so good... except for afew 'surprises' in the morning. Colleague who i passed the laptop to was on leave. So i thought... oke... no work AGAIN? But... Colleague number 2 came to the rescue.
Everything is up and well. Nothing interesting this morning. There is the CNY mood in the air surrounding me. Only me becoz i'm not stressed out. BleH... ... there are afew lime trees around.. just to usher in the CNY. Yes.. ... red is good.
Later meeting Mr. I for lunch. Yes... i'm hungry already.
Finally feeling thankful for my job. In fact... i ASKED for IT. Just afew months back... i remembered asking myself just how am i going to fit into this full time job routine... one idea was to do part-time kinda stuff... just to get used to working life.
So here it is... yea... kinda good cause sometimes here and there you realise you're not the only one complaining and whining. Life so far is pretty good i must say. No targets... of course... that also means no end year bonus.
Its great to remain young... no liabilities, no loans, no debts. Just work and feed myself.
Been praying before i go to work. Afraid i'll slip up. Yes, by God's grace i make it through each and everyday, without a scratch.
