Apart from making a few trips back to office, I have been spending my time studying, eating, sleeping and studying studying lately.
Was pretty moody today, for no reason or there must be something to account for my moody-ness. Got a sudden feel for a break...
忙忙忙。。。 为了生活,为了将来。
忙了个圈,突然停了下脚步,问了问自己,还好吗?是我要的吗?
真的好烦!
似乎突然没了方向感,好不习惯。
I'm still not used to all the changes... None :(
Albeit tired of staying too conscious and clear minded which in return, caused me to lose out on a lot of intangible things which I placed importance at. Is this the so called, the opportunity cost? Then I rather not start so early... I want thinking and actions of a 20s, not 30s. damn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Need a change of mentality.
Tristan is now 1 month old! How time flies...
Happy 1st month and congratulations to Sis and Jie-fu!
He will sure grow up healthily and be such a love to everyone like Travis!
Sis has been very busy preparing during the past few weeks from doing researches on full month cake, deciding which menu and food items to cater, invitation list, going through the traditional prayers, cutting baby's hair to finally, Tristan 1st month!
The party started at 5pm till late yesterday.
Sis took 2 types of full month 'cake' from ecreative, but they made a mistake and spelt baby's name as Triston. Then, some of the cupcakes could not withstand the hot weather and melted on the way. Sigh... decoration pieces gave way along with the melted cream during delivery too. Overall, mango crepe cake is better than cupcakes, and cost lesser.
It was another nice to have meet up session during such celebration. Baby Tristan has been a very good boy today, spending most of his time sleeping to touch his tiny little legs and hands. But before you know it again, he might just become as cheeky as darling Travis, who is still, the limelight of the night!
One advantage of working in the same company with Sis? You won't get bored during such occasion... Yeah!
Of course, my girlies came as well! Lin, Mei, CY, and on behalf of my Sis, (she told me to) thank you gals for the hamper. Lin and CY, really appreciate your time for making a trip down :) You girls will never be left out from my invitation list for such celebrations.
It was wonderful to know that everyone's coming with good news to share!
alright alright, whole day of fun, feeling guilty and gonna do some reading...have fun, enjoy life and... Hear from me again!
* Slaps myself *
Wake up! You are in reality, not barbie world.
My leave schedule has been approved! Same as last year, I'll take a month of unpaid leave to prepare for exams. In fact, i'm already on leave this week onwards...
Yeah, but has been returning to office 2 days in a row.
Crossing fingers that I do not have to do so again this week as I really needed to forget about work and get cranked up for studies :( My momentum and concentration always gets paused and fizzled whenever I think of work.
Jia you and best of luck to everyone else with upcoming exams too. I'm sure you peeps are more stressed up than me! We can do it, right...and it'll be all over in a flash!
Darling has been super busy with studying and revision.
So much so that he only steps out of the house for meals or to school. Poor poor poor me! 3 weeks down and it'll be my turn... But still, darling won't be such a poor thing as me, for he'll already be done with school and holidaying. Unfair :<
This year is really tougher to manage as I really can't leave work alone while concentrating for exams. Need to manage both concurrently as recession don't stop for me. Am finding it so hard to manage... Advices anyone? From Finance, HR or any leaders on how to walk through recession faster or at least, manage it better. Any to share experiences? Drop me a message... with lotsa appreciation.
Had a terrible headache today when we have a meeting on managing cost again. However, it was kinda fruitful as it was the long-never-had-intensive meeting that drained my brain juices. Then again, it was only a brainstorming session. Means... more meetings to attend, but, my exams?
Mummy... :(
Family is better now and it's always better to know that everyone is talking to each other. It's tough to maintain as a lot of effort is needed to build strong family ties which I always find it hard to learn. Sigh...Communication is still the best and hardest thing to know.
Another news is...
Tristan (Travis younger bro), Sis newborn darling is celebrating his full month soon.
Date: 19 April (Sun)
Actual day is 20th (Mon)
Be posted again for detailed invitation info.
Then, i sneaked out for a jog on Sat night as i was too stressed with irritating Org. Theory. 6 hours for 2 chapters. and in between, i snoozed for an hour. Brrrr... in need of a jog and fresh air despite my injury, I managed to run 3/4 round of Bishan Park! Yeah... Finally a jog after 2 months. Regretted for being lazy before I fell... Happy!!!
Am gonna go MIA for some time soon to prepare for exams. This time, it's worst then last year, as you can read from my posts. Every time I attend lessons, I'll blog...
Anyway, be back when I'm stressed. Because, when I'm stressed, I think of you guys! Ha!
May 13 - Principles of Marketing
May 19 - Info System and Organization
May 20 - Organization Theory
May 29 - Principles of HRM
Work have been difficult with a lot of fluctuations, change of momentum, managing people and expectations. Directions just got lost at times and heartbeat soften with disappointment. I need the energy back!
I'm really confused as challenges ahead are in a total state of blur-ness. I'm stuck and cannot think of anything, someone help please... Most said no, cannot and never. But if I don't move, I have to put in double the effort.
Appreciated and I'm definitely proud of the opportunity given. Thought through it for kinda long and rejected it eventually. Reason? I'm confused and do not want to lose focus on anything. What's important is doing my job well and passing exams...
Excuse? Maybe, I'm still in my own confusion and choose to not change.
Internal change:
Again, I'm caught in a situation that I had 2 years ago.
Thinking back, did I regret?
Looking forward and given the same choice, I rejected.. I've grown to realize that things are no longer the same. What u decide today will determine your future. I messed up my own life twice by, not being mature to consider all other foreseeable situations. This time, I took 3 weeks to sort my thoughts and totally scared to commit.
Today, I'm putting up in my blog... if it's a mistake again, I'll learn from it as I've really tried my best. It wasn't a hasty decision for sure. At times... I really needed a mentor to show me some light.
Today, I know if I have to work doubly hard. To fall and bring myself up. To figure ways to motivate myself...
Ultimate aim? I have to take a new light after my exam, into the basic and reality. As I really cannot survive by believing 'I know, you know and you will'...
1st wedding function of the year and the bride is.... Norizan from BPSS!
It was like so many years after Secondary School that we did not catch up and she was fantastic and pretty. The naughty schoolgirl whom also got caught by the discipline mistress for short skirt was now married!
RH + Chris
Everyone has grew up... and it was nice to just say 'Hi'.
My family has got lotsa problem again... and I went out with a heavy heart :(
Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee... be all well in 2 more days can :(
:( :( :(
The last that I 'Mambo-ed'? - Poly Year 3 I think... (the first & last).
I went there again tonight with my colleagues and had fun :)
Headed from Arena @ Clarke Quay to Zouk around 10plus and the girls went 'chitter chatter' non-stop on Boss's car during the journey there. Ha.
Music finally got started around midnight, and the usual clubbing starts! A little difference here, when we are all trying to follow and learn the mambo moves. "You like to move it move it... MOVE it!"
