Then in the afternoon like abt 5pm, Michelle went into our lab n visit us!! Wow I was really happy to see her. She was my ex colleague in Innovative and now she's working in the TTSH Microbiology lab, I'll be working in TTSH Haemato lab *grin* We'll be colleagues once again!! Ivan was teasing me and telling Michelle that I have this never ending smile eversince yesterday receiving 'THE' call. Hmm tink almost everyone knows that I'm leaving cuz Ivan sort of gave a lot a lot of hints when teasing me. So there it goes... the cat is out of the bag.

Geez.. think I messed up today's interview at TTSH. boo hoo... When it was over, I was thinking like.. that's it man, I think I can see the offer letter burning in front of my eyes *lol* Simply to say, I've given up hope =P

Newayz so I went to work, and Michael told me that Alvin's hiring me, but it's only left for the hr to draw up the offer letter and contact me. Hmm maybe my luck isn't so bad afterall hehehe.. Today's workload is not many, but my analyser got problem, had to stop twice boo hoo... I end up finishing at 5 plus. bleah

Then on the way home, I got a message from my friend who's working at ttsh asking how the interview went this mornin and who interviewed me. I told him who and who and that it went rather badly haha.. But then, his next message told me that at noon, he thought heard one of the interviewer saying that they decided to hire me too. I was like... huh?? Realli?? heeeeeeeee........ I wonder why lol

I dun wan to put my hopes so high up yet until it is definitely confirmed. =P *twist fingers* V (^_^) V

StReSSed!!

Yesterday was our 1 yr 6 months Anniversary ^_^ I wrote in my organiser that it was 2 yrs 6 months Anniversary. haha.. was shot down by dear, cuz he laugh n laugh n laugh.. so I was "that" blur =P I got to work at 1pm that day n dear was supposed to work too in the mornin, but he lazy to get up kekeke So we stayed in bed till like 10 plus like that yawn...

Skipped lunch cuz I was already late for work so hailed a cab and dear sent me there. Phew.. the afternoon was agonising cuz I did not take my breakfast n lunch. So at 6pm when I knock off, my stomach was grumbling already. Sum more dear was late.. again! I told him to pick me up at 6pm boo hoo... So I went to Orchard MRT n wait. He say he was still at Clementi *sob*.. So I wandered ard in Popular browsing thru books while waiting for him. He arrived at 6.45pm n I nagged him for being late again =P hehe It's becoming a routine liaoz

We squuezed pass through the hoard of ppl at Wisma basement walkway to Takashimaya. I HATE to walk there when it's so crowded... can barely move! Neway, we reached Taka n we went up to see what food is nice there. Wanted to eat at the Crystal Jade there, but soooooo long queue. Then dear suggest we go to Wisma top level to see what nice restaurant there to eat. I was like... "what??" Hee... have to go through the passage again. Well, no harm in trying out new restaurants rite? N dear offered the dinner treat since he was late haha!

We managed to squeeze pass through the crowd again n take the elevator to level 2. Decided on this "Gusto" restaurant. He had Aragosta (Baby Lobster Spaghetti) and I had Pollo Cream (Chicken pasta in cream sauce). Both were gooodddddd Now that I think about it again... I have a craving for it hehe...

After eating, we headed home to watch Singapore vs Indonesia soccer live. OMG!! How can Indonesia lost to Singapore!!! They are certainly better than Sg but sigh.. no luck!! I hope the 2nd leg Indonesia will trash Sg!! hahahaha... We agreed that everytime Sg scored, I can kick him once and evertime Indonesia scored, he can kick me once. So from yesterday's match, I can kick him 3 times!! haha Both of us has yet to do it =P Accumulate first ba kekekekkee

So stressed now... cannot do my assignment!! boo hoooooooooo.......... *sob sob*

2 Interviews Down!!

Finally.. I'm home!! So tired... yawnnnn..

I woke up at 6.30 am today juz to be double sure that I'm not late and have ample time to prepare. Well... I did like laze on the bed for a few more minutes haha! Then went to bathe, had my coffee, crimpped my hair straight, change clothes and lastly apply my make up. Tink I was all ready at 7.45 am, so I logged on to RO to play a lil bit to see see, browsed my blog and I went out of my house at 8.05am. Took MRT to Jurong East and then took the cab to The Synergy building for my 1st interview =D

Boy... there were 3 interviewer 1 French guy ( I assume he is French cuz of his name n accent), 1 lab manager and 1 senior med tech questioning me *sweat* They asked abt the company which I only know a lil bit abt cuz they only have the US based website and not the Sg website. They asked the killer questions like what do you know about our company? Then when I answered briefly, she asked me, "Anything more?" Then asked abt what was the most difficult situation you experience before and what did you do to overcome it? What are your strength and weaknesses? Tell us why should they employ me *sweat*. Questions upon questions were bombarded upon mi. But I guess lady luck was lending me a hand cuz by the end of the interview, I seem to have impressed them heee..

Later on I found out that Tracy, my ex colleague from Innovative, is working at this company which I was itnerviewed at!!! wow.... I didn't realise it until someone mentioned it to me! I sms-ed Tracy whether she is working there and told her I just went for interview there thiz mornin hehehe.. She replied that she has spoken to her boss and tell him/her that she know me. hmm But I wonder what kind of feedback will she be giving me... hmmmm I hope good onez ya? =D

After that I rushed to Ayer Rajah Crescent by cab again for my 2nd interview. I reached at 10.25am and went up to the place. Wow........ the place is HUGE!! Compared to my lab it's like... phew.. I tink it can easily be 10 times bigger than my lab. I was ushered in to see the manager. Did the usual stuff like filled up my application form and stuff then went in to have a 1-on-1 interview with him.

First impression I got on him.. hmm I think he's a great boss. The kind of boss that I think everyone wants to have. He's friendly, supportive and understanding. He gives you the feeling that you can be really frank to him and he's actually encouraging it. He believes that everyone is different and would like to plan the work that really suits us. If I were to join the company, he would be there to guide me and plan my career path. It's like wow!! That's the kind of managing qualities that I'm looking for in a boss! It really makes me think that he uses effort to create a very condusive working environment. One where everyone is happy working, helping each other and working as a family, as a team. It's 21 days leave!! There's of course some times where u have to work on Sunday, but only once in like 1.5 months. Everytime u work on a Sunday, u get $60! wow..

So I'll get to know the outcome of the first interview by next Friday, this second interview I'm not quite sure yet cuz he told me it's up to the HR department. I hope all offers or rejections will come at the appropriate time so that I can choose the job which best suits me. Now there's the ttsh interview left, that's next tuesday hehehe

yawnnn I work afternoon shift today. Ended work at 8.30 pm today =)

2 Interviews tomorrow *sweat*

Mornin while I was in job training on 1 analyser, a call came in. It was from Magenta again. I was called for an interview once quite some time ago. It's a company that acts like the middle man in recruiting ppl for their clients. The girl asked me a few questions on my job scope then say she will contact me again soon hmm

Another call came at 1pm plus. This one from Covance Asia Pte Ltd at Industrial Business Park. Frankly speaking, I coudn't remember applying for Med Tech job for that company. But never the less, she say they would like to have an interview with me. They wanted to set it on Friday, but there's no way I can go off on Friday cuz it's fully packed. So since I'm free tomorrow sort of, I asked whether tomorrow is possible. Then she confirmed my interview for tomorrow for 9.30am slot.

Then at 5pm, TTSH called me *sweat* all really come at one go.. She arranged my interview to be on 11th January, that's on Tuesday, mornin at 9.15 am. Ask me to go to the Human Resource, fill up the Non-Exempt form and then call her when I'm done filling it up. Hell, was I grinning from ear to ear hahaha.... So mani opportunities come to my lap!! I'm estatic!

hmm Since I have to be in for the 9.30am interview tomorrow, I was scared I cannot make it to the Parkway Lab interview at Ayer Rajah Cresent at 10.30, so I called Alvin and moved the interview to 11am instead. He didn't mind, told me it shouldn't be a problem.

Oh gosh!! My schedule is so packeddd!! I guess I would have to go with combination of plan B n C like Leena suggested. If in case I got time, I can still choose to go home. If I'm realli pressed for time, I can head straight to Camden, go to 1 toilet, remove my make up and change my attire.

I think that shud work eh? Wish me luckkkkkkkkkkk~~~

P.S.
I almost earn back all that I spend during my shopping spree in RO yesterday hahahaha yeahhhhh!!

Just when I tot.......

Life's funny u know, at times it's like testing u or sumthing. Juz when I am so realli desperate for a job interview, none came. Yesterday I got news that abt my possible job interview at ttsh (was it yesterday?), today i got a call from Parkway Lab for another interview!! This happens eVeRy sinGLe time!! gee.. making my life a roller coaster ride eh? Testing whether ur heart can take it anot =)

Neway, I arrange this Parkway Lab interview this Thursday mornin. Wanted to take leave juz now, but lady boss say it's rather difficult (eventho there's oni 1 person on leave that day) duh... So, I asked her whether I can work in the afternoon instead or not cuz I got sumthing on hehehe... n she agreed. Dear say I'm very evilll hehehe~~ what they dun know wun hurt them yah? correct anot? =P

hMmm now I'm planning how to arrive more discreetly in the office on thursday noon... *tinking* Of course I'll be putting on some make up for the interview, but the problem is that ppl at my lab is not accustomed to seeing me in make up haha... See me in make up plus formal attire I will die!!

Plan A is of course go home first n change n bla bla bla... but may not have enough time.

Plan B is to bring along travel make-up remover n remove all my make up after interview n head to my lab to work.

Plan C is to bring another set of less formal clothes inside my bag n change before I turn up for work.

HmmMmmMmmmm which will work huh??

Neway I was quite pissed off at work today cuz hah! See, whenever I'm in immuno they always think I can do everything. Kyrptor controls not done, Elecsys control not done. When another person is in immuno, Linda will always do them. Why huh? Of course I'm flattered that they think I'm so capable of handling a lot of things, but I'm also pretty pissed at the double standards. That was not the only thing! I was so damn busy doing my work in the afternoon and the stocks for immuno came. When another person is doing immuno, Linda wud take the PO, check and keep the stocks in the fridge for them. TODAY, I was soooo freaking busy and then she called my name n said that my immuno stocks are here full stop. wah piang..... WIN liao loh??

dammit... arrGhhhhhhhhh *pull out hair*

Neway, to please myself, I did some pretty heavy shopping at RO today. I used my merchant n shopped at Payon town n Protera town. I spend a couple of Millions heh... heh.. heh... made up what I cannot spend on in RL <-- Shun's short form for Real Life *lol* learned that yesterdae hehe

Did some modification to the stuff that I bought and refurbish it a lil bit n sell it off at a higher price haha... I bought a Munak Egg at 600K and now I'm using my merchant to sell it at 700K.. hmm see if there's any takers later. Bought a few cards, boots slotted with zombie card. Bought 4 Ice Attribute Fists at 300K each and 30 Oris at 25K each. Refined each Fist till +5 n now I'm putting 2 of those in my shop for 900K each hahaha... I'm a really big fat white shark, juz like Zhi Wei seyz abt me selling Acorns at 2K each =P

Shopping did pretty good to my temper. *breathe in, breathe out* Tomorrow I shall envision more purple colours heee.... Nite nite... I shall some time of my own for a while before I hit the bed ^_^

yAwNNN mOrnin evEryonEEEe

ok here I am still bleary eyed n in front of my PC (bathe already of coz!) Kind of remembering what I dream abt last night.. hm.. pretty action packed, it's like Lara Croft meet Blade kind of thing wif me as the main character of course hahaha =D Forgot a whole lot of my dream though.. My mission was to banish this sort of Vampire King in his evil mansion.. ops let me correct it, snowing evil mansion (my room aircon must be pretty freezing last night haha..)

*close eyes for a moment* I'm taking time to visualise the colour purple. I read in a magazine that it'll brighten my day this way. But what does the colour purple signify? Purle....... with envy? haha oPz! That's supposed to be green heh! The only 2 things I can associate purple is Prince and royalty. *lol*

I go crimp my hair straight now. I managed to sell 3 Pike[4] 130K zeny each and 2 Katana[4] 50K zeny each when I sleep using my merchant charac. heh! That's *calculating* 490K zeny income! hahaha Makes up for my lost Earth Petite pet!! I forgot to put it back to it's egg state before logging off... boo hooo *sobs* now it's gone!! Lee Na told me I have to convert it back to egg before I go. =O Gee... now I know.. it's a 380K zeny worth of information, pretty darn expensive lesson! bleah hehe

First Day of work in 2005

Gee.. who on earth is in the mood to work on the first day (actually the 3rd day of 2005) of the year?? Bleah, the weather still gloomy, it's those kind of days where the last place I wanna be is at work. Thank goodness the workload is little n not much problems, cept that I have to be in immuno section till Ann came back from her leave.

This afternoon, I was juz sitting on the sorting table n did a lil bit of day dreaming heh! N gosh! It struck me in the head... that.. I'm going to be 25 yrz old this year!! Aaaaaghhhhh *Psycho OST on background* 1/4 of a century hmmm yIkEs! I'm feelin old *shiver*

Good news is that there's some really positive announcement on my shares, it's halted for the mean time cuz of the announcement, tink tomorrow it'll resume trading again. The queue for buy price jumped 4 bids from the closing price yesterday!! I pray that it'll be even better tomorrow! *shout gleefully* kekekeke... Hopefully it'll be my long awaited extra bonus hehehe

Bad news is that I've yet to hear some news regarding any future job interviews. I'm really trully eager to strike off that "find a new job" in "What I wanna do list"! My work place is really giving me bad vibes, it's like eating my liveliness and my positive perspectives on things bit by bit. yIkeS! I wan out I wan out! boo hooo....

Oh yah. Did I tell u Ivan and I started talking again? hMmm probably not. It started on Christmas eve after exchanging presents. He just came up to me while I was alone, hugged me (frenly hug of course) from the side and said sorry that he had not been talking to me these few days (actually it's more rather a few months) and that it was because he needed sometime alone (from what I wonder? Fai told me it's because he got a crush on me. I was like huh.... really meh? ). Well now we're slightly in the talking basis, but somehow it's just not the same anymore. It's like walking on cracked piece of glass. U'll never know when it's going to give way. And furthermore, I find it rather peculiar that he somehow picked my name from the draw for 2 years in a row. He bought me Tweety bird stuffed toy, 2 years ago he bought me a mr smiley stuffed toy. Hmm wonder if something fishy is going on. I picked Jenny's name for the exchange present, n bought her chocolates in a mug hehe

What did my dear gimme? Oh boy, u know what for the first time, I managed to guess correctly what he bought for me. I even guessed where he bought it from! hehehe At first, he was like asking me where is the KL map that we bought cuz a friend of his was going to KL for a short trip and that he was going to lend it to his fren. I dunno why, it's like something or somehow I like u know knew that it's actually he who need the map and that he was the one who's going to go to KL. Of course he blatantly denied it. He also borrowed my digi cam, which he claimed that he wanted to use it for their Christmas eve dinner celebration. I actually believed him!! =P

Haha.. he had wrapped it in a really nice wrapping paper. I had requested that he wrap it cuz I like the notion of opening presents hehehe. Under the wrapping paper was a box with artistic decoration tied with a ribbon, and when I opened it, I saw my present *tada* hehe I was right!! It was a bag, but not just a bag, it's a TOUGH bag hehehe He esp went to the Berjaya Time Square in KL to go to the TOUGH shop there and buy it for me... aw... I was surprised! I mean eventhough I kind of guessed that he would actually go there, but I didn't expect him to really do it, you know what I mean? He told me he went there by bus at night, reached KL at 4.30am in the mornin!! Then he roamed the streets till there was light and then he headed to Petronas Tower to go up the bridge. The queue was amazing as always, even though he went realli earli.

Then one of his contact lenses was giving him problems, until he could not take it any longer, he went to 1 parked motorbike to see the rear mirror and took off the lens that was irritating his eyes. So there he was shopping for my present with 1 eye. My one-eyed-jack =D He got my present and was tempted to buy 1 TOUGH jeans for himself, but my bag already cost him a bomb so he decided against it. He took another bus back to singapore and reached in the evening, n boy did that trip tire him out. Thank you for the present dear.. the effort you took is enough for my present alone =) But! That doesn't give u any excuse not to gimme present for next christmas wahahahaha!! Kidding dear =P

What I get for him? *sigh* It's actually pretty lame *sob* I wanted to buy him something better, but my blardee pay never came!! My pay only went into my account on 24th Dec itself!! On 23rd I was like practically frantic, cuz my pay is not in the bank and I was really broke already. So I went to change my ren min bi that my mom gave me, plus whatever that was left inside my bank, I headed down to Takashimaya to hunt for my presents. Top priority was of course my dear's present, followed by my brother's present, then my 2 cousins and then Jenny for the exchange gift.

I got my dear a Boss Perfume set (which.... he already has) *sobs* My heart totally tumbled when he told me that it is the same perfume that he's having. Why didn't I notice it!! It smelled quite different when I sampled it. But when he mentioned it, it suddenly dawned on me that erh... ya hor... it did smell quite the same. Oh shit!! arhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I felt more terrible when he told me that he's been trying to finish off his last bottle. This perfume that I'm giving him would be his 3rd bottle *faint*

Ok so I was a lil paranoid =P

Phew... silly old me. I sms Fai to tell him that I had done some thinking and asked him whether am I the one for him. He replied to me saying that yes I am, no one is perfect and that I am that someone who can lit up his life.. that is all he need, simple. He was puzzled as to why I think so much.

I told him that I don't understand him bla bla bla... and he told me that it is not easy to understand him and it takes time.. no one is good in deciphering other people. But, I will soon be able to hmmm... when will that be? He told me all I need to do is to be more attentive n viola! =D I wish it's that easy

Well folks, crisis over hehe...

Re-assessing my role as a gf

I'm reassessing my role as a gf. I do admit I lack the focus & attententiveness as I should have. I don't know what I should prioritise in life anymore, just wan to simply shut myself out from the world & be free from any obligations. This makes me wonder.. am I the same girl I was few years back? I seem to have lost sight of my ideal goal in life, my focus, my determination to excell. Why is it that all I want to do nowadays is to slack away?

I look at Fai & wonder if I am being fair to him. Am I tying him down from the obligations he has to fulfil such as his work, family & other personal committments. At times I don't know why I just feel so empty inside.. like something is missing...

Fai says that I take him for granted, that I am not attentive to his needs, his feelings and also failing to understand him. As a gf failing to fulfil her duty and role to understand her own bf is... disastrous! You know.. I don't know why these days I have this attitude; I do want to be the perfect gf, knowing what her bf through n through.. Like when he's mad, I'd know the perfect thing to do to make him happy. When he's stressed, I'd know the right remedy to de-stress him. But with Fai... I'm clueless. The things that I do seem to make matters worse. All these bring questions and questions again to my mind as to Why?? Why?? If then nothing works, would I be correct to leave things to himself until he's ok? Which makes me wonder, am I the one for him? Is he the one for me? Yes, maybe I am not attentive to his needs n feelings.. don't know what brought me to this state of being.. I don't think I'm this bad last time?

Gosh... I'm so confused all of the sudden

Mystivacat

Juz wondering...

I took some time to browse through my regular blog spots today... n it makes me wonder why most of the contents are all sad... Some quit writing or simply disappeared suddenly (like me heh)

Hmm 2005, what does it has in store for us? More gloomy outlook or a bright one? We'll see.. Well then I'm off for dinner supper kind of thing with Fai ^_^

New year is here but...

What is this I am feeling right now? I don't feel the mood of new year this time, it's all bleak and... dark. Even the weather seems to complement it. I mean juz look outside, it's been raining on and off for the past few days =O What a terrible weather to start the year with huh?

My bf and I were planning go join in the fun for new year count down last Friday, after I supposedly re-bonded my hair. BUT hehe... so sad, it's not advisable to rebond my hair cuz I bleached my hair before hahaha.. Haizz I was so determined to go! I tot it's something that I would welcome the new year with, a new outlook may mean starting a new year with a different me, something different for a start. Well that'll have to wait for hmmm at least 1/2 yr before all my black hair start to grow to full length, then I can go back to PS Kimage to rebond my hair hehe.. In the end, went for a haircut n protein treatment instead. Phew... boy was that expensive!! Lucky I got a 30% disc voucher, so in the end I only spent $69 plus! I got a $55 cut n protein treatment voucher for month of February and a 20% disc voucher for month of March. hehe.. Not bad after all

Ok so we wanted to go count down at Orchard. We ate at Hisatomo Restaurant at PS. I tot it looked nice from the outside. Gee... looks can realli deceive u sometimes. Don't go there ever! We regretted our meal there =P Then after eating, I suddenly felt really tired n sleepi. Guess what, we went home at 10pm plus!! haha... Not the ideal time to go home for a count down night. So there we were heading down home when we see people boarding the NEL line to go to town. We'll coun't down next year =D there'll always be a next year right? hehe

My life now is a d.r.a.g. Basically, I can't wait for my 3rd semster to end then I can have my Perth Trip with my bf and graduate, get a promotion n get hitched hahaha Don't u all wonder when will that day he will propose? He asked me once and I told him I'd be really thrilled if he goes down on 1 knee and ask for my hand. lol A lil old fashioned but it's a vision that I hope someday I can turn into a real memory.

There's this insurance agent of mine. He's arranged this candle light picnic on the beach one night simple to propose to his long time gf. It's really romantic I feel... like WOW.. at this time of the century, there are still some nice guys willing to go to that extent to ask for his loved one's hand in marriage. Well, after that he got scolded by his future mother in law, cuz he proposed to her on the night of the Hungry Ghost Festival *LOL* However, compare that to having your guy indirectly asking u to marry him by looking for flats. I mean, where the romance in that!! =P All girls deserve to be swept off her feet once in a while and esp for an important occasion as that. *thinking* hmm now why am I talking abt this stuff?? haha beats me =P

Anyway, what's your new year resolution this time huh? =) Mine hmmm I guess I'll give more effort to dress to work hahaha plus other minor details ^_^ Nonetheless, happy new year everyone
