The silly boy...

he's just 19 days away...

Almost there...

Memories...

While it was a pain in the ass packing my room.. It got pretty fun when I found certain things that brought back really fond memories...

Item 1 : Forever Friends Bear from Zim
This was Zim's first present to me. ^_^ When we first started, I kept stressing that flowers are a waste of money and that I do not like to receive flowers, so that silly boy bought this bear simply because it's carrying flowers, saying that it was his way of giving me flowers.

Item 2: KeY's past obsession with Jay Chou
It's kinda funny when I recall the extend I went as a fan of Jay Chou just 2-3 years ago. Got my dad to ask his friend to buy me a phone specially from Taiwan. (He was endorsing Panasonic GD75 in Taiwan back then) Was so excited when I finally got it and was so proud of the phone (tho it's functions were... lousy). Got my cousin to bring back a Pepsi can from Taiwan (still unopened!) simply because Jay was on it. Oh, and got that VCD cum Figurine from Hong Kong myself. Was so proud that I bought it for SGD$10 cheaper. LOL, silly me. But again, those were the days, man..(alot more silly things that I did, but I'll save them for another time =P) Kinda wondering if they are worth anything now. Any interested parties??

Item 3: KeY's Victories
LOL, looking at these reminds me of my days as a pistol shooter and of the silly things we did in between training sessions. (E.g. shooting can drinks, playing basketball, badminton and roller blading!) Really missed those carefree days...

Item 4: KeY's Comics Collection!
I remember the days when I would rush home before 6.30pm every day just to catch Hana Yori Dango (anime) on SCV. (erm, it was year 2000!) Never missed a single episode! Was so in love with it that I went insane when my bro bought me the entire series of Comics for my 16th Birthday! Guess that also sparked off my interest in comics.. Spent the next 3 years chasing after Hana Yori Dango's series. Felt so empty when the series finally ended. LOL..

Guess this is the fun part of going though my things... relishing my memories... Hee.. hope to relish more memories as my packing progresses!

Work in Progress..

Decide to spend my Saturday meaningfully by packing my sty, erm, I meant study room. Started off at 8pm (after lazing and napping my afternoon away) and ended only at 12midnight! Best of all.. I am not even halfway done. =( Sucks man.

Before Look
Let me justify a bit. The main reason why this room is so damn messy (other than the reason that KeY isn't a very organized person to begin with) is because it's my study room. Since I graduated, I haven't really used this room, other than a dumping ground for my bags and stuff.

Work-In-Progress
It's really frustrating having to decide if I should throw some items away. While I'm really tempted to throw all my Uni notes away, a certain part of me managed to convinced myself to keep them (for god knows what reason). Maybe they will come in handy some day. Maybe.

Even with the dilemma, I managed to gather enough rubbish to fill all these bags. Oh, and one of the fucking paper bag gave way when I was carrying it down the stairs (I stay on level 3 fyi) to the rubbish bin downstairs, scattering all the trash on the floor. TMD.

This pretty much explains how dusty the room is! Not to mention that I changed the water more than 10 times!!!!! =(

End of Phase 1
Sigh. Even after sweating like a pig and slogging my ass off for 4 hours, the room doesn't seem to be any neater than it was initially. (Okay, maybe I should say, it's still as messy as it was 4 hours ago.) That's because I got really fedup (not to mention that I really stink and that I had a massive headache) and decided to call it a day simply by stuffing the things that I want to keep on the shelves first. I'll sort them out on a later date, I promise...

SIGH~

1.4 Wedding Gown..

Went to settle my wedding and evening gowns on Saturday @ Jawn.Happy.Ever.After . After discussing my 'homework' (I was given the assignment of looking through fashion magazines, runway photos to decide what kind of gowns I like a couple of months ago) with Euzart and Susan (the two fantastic designers), we sorta settled for a rough idea of what kind of evening gown I will be getting. (Nope, not saying anything here. =X) Final design won't be out till end of June though, can't wait!!!!

Anyway, I went on to select my wedding gown with the help of the two designers and XP & Bud. I've decided to get off-the-rack gown earlier simply to save some cost. Besides, Jawn has really gorgeous gowns to begin with. While it was somewhat tiring, it was also pretty fun trying on gown after gown, gathering varying opinions from everyone. I tried on a total of 6 gowns, eliminating a few along the way and finally came down to the final two. (shan't spill any beans about how they look, =x), There was something about each of the two gowns that I liked and hence, found it awfully difficult to decide on the spot. Kinda wished that Zim was around to just make the final decision for me.

But guess not...

So the KeY did what the KeY has to do: She went home to sleep on it and finally decided on THE ONE!

One more item done!

^_^

Time to say goodbye...

Hm, it's time to say goodbye to another pair of basketball shoes. I didn't realise how long I've had this pair of shoes until I checked out my old blog and found this. This pair of shoes has faithfully served me for the past 2.5years and has never failed me, even when I left him behind for 3 months when I went to the States. It is in this pair of shoes that I begin to fall tremendously in love with basketball and it was in this pair of shoes that I begin to really excel in it. Pity the good old days are coming to an end.


Guess there's nothing else I can but to say goodbye.. =(

Anyway, thanks to Ed, I found a perfect replacement.

Decided to try a brand other than Nike for once. (Partly because the new Nike designs ain't as impressive, and partly because I'm low on dough. =P) Got this pair of reeboks for just $80! Great buy! ^_^ Best of all, it fits like a sock on each of my foot.

Can't wait to try it out on the basketball court this friday!!!!

PMS-ing..

It's the time of the month again.

Not happy.

Maybe it's loneliness kicking in.

Just not happy.

Anyway, I'm going to choose my bridal gown tomorrow. At least I won't be going alone.

=(

Siao Liao..

Holy Shit...

Didn't know naming my Paris pictures would be such a killer. =P Firstly, I just realised that I took almost 400 pictures during my 4 days stay in Paris. Secondly, I realised that I didn't know most of the names of the buildings in the pictures taken. Let's see, I definitely know Eiffel Tower, there's also Notre Dame and of course, Louvre. Erm, sadly, that's about it. =( Anyway, I decided to put in some effort to name the buildings in my pictures rather than simply naming them "Building across the bridge" or "building in front of Eiffel Tower" . (Something I normally do. =P)

Kaoz. I totally regret.. Spent the last 45 minutes googling terms like "golden statue on bridge", "museums in Paris" and "official buildings in Paris", and trying to match my pictures to the pictures on the web, just to get their names. It's driving me insane! *KeY pulls her hair* ARGHHHHhhhhhhhhh... After 45mins, I only managed to name less than 30 photos. OMFG.

@!#!@%#@$^$#^$%&%$^#$@@#

regrets...

I heard something that affected me quite badly. It's something to do with my previous job, a comment made by my ex-boss to be exact. It got me pretty irritated as the comment was rather unjustified and unfair to me simply because it probably begun with a misunderstanding and that I was not there to defend for myself and that the person there just conveniently pushed the blame to the absentee, me.

It disgusts me to think that I've spent 8 months of my life working for her. It disgusts me that I actually sided her during my exit interview. Now, I'm full of regrets. One big regret is in accepting the job to begin with and I have to admit that it's definitely one of the worst decision I've made in my life.

Guess I finally understood what people mean when they say that it's a dog-eat-dog world out there. People can simply backstab you for their own gains regardless. People can simply draw conclusions without clarifying and finding out the truth. I'm not too sure what else she's going to do as I heard that she has threatened to write my HR report in a way that will ensure that I won't be able to find another job in future. How nasty can she get. I'm just stunned to hear that, especially when I did do my work and help her for the past 8 months and this is what I'm going to get in return. I'm truly disappointed and totally disgusted. To be honest, I don't even know what I did wrong, or rather, if I even did anything wrong. I'm really discouraged now.

Sigh. Seems like there's still alot more for me to learn about the world outside.

I'm just glad I have a chance to start afresh. Glad that I have been given another opportunity in a whole new environment to prove myself. At least I thank her for being the model of someone I definitely do NOT want to be, though at a cost that might not be worth it.

My first weekend off!

Hm, haven't had both my weekends off for a loooong time, thanks to my horrid previous job . Now that it's finally here, I thought I would have a fruitful weekend, to be able to do lotsa things that have been left unattended (e.g. pack my ultra messy room, blog some stuff, go blading) since forever.

But, no surprises, nothing has been accomplished. -_- Typically KeY I guess. I was planning to pack my room either yesterday afternoon, if not, today afternoon. Guess what, I simply just slept both my afternoons away, even though I wasn't that tired. It's just that the heat was so terrible that I simply refused to move and instead, kept sleeping, even though I was perspiring like crazy. Only bothered to move when the sun has finally set.

Sigh, I'm just so lazy.

Updates...

I probably really should be sleeping right now. After all, I've to get up at 6.30am tomorrow just to get to work. Whatever, I need to blog. I really need to blog. LOL.

Here's a summary of how my life went for the past 2 weeks.

1. Trip to Zim
Flew 12 hours to Zurich, nearly died on the plane as usual, because of the constant shaking and turbulence on the plane. Sigh, don't think I'll ever get over my dislike for plane rides. Didn't help that there weren't any cute guys in my vicinity. Sux. Finally caught Zim after a whooping 15hours of travelling, which included flight transit at zurich to geneva, a bloody ex cup of green tea that cost $5.20! But I guess it was all worth it. Just seeing him.

Spent 10 days in Europe. Besides Geneva, we hopped over to Paris and a french village called Annecy (Heard of it? LOL, I never did till then.). Paris is totally overrated. Didn't enjoy it as much I thought I would. Headed over to Montreux on my own. Nice little town. More details later.

2. My New Job
I'm extremely pleased with my new job so far. Started on monday, so it's officially day 3. Firstly, I'm posted to the place of my dreams and secondly, it's OFFICE hours. So from now on, KeY is officially available on weekends! Of cos, I've to do OT on weekends and night shifts occasionally, but still, at least, I'm not obliged to do it every single week! Best of all, I'm currently attached to a great trainer who's really teaching me the ropes of the job and it's really beneficial. At least I get to learn what I need gradually instead of simply being thrown into the woods to fend for myself. Really an encouraging start. In addition, it seems like my big bosses are nice as well. I'm really confident that this is going to be a great place to work. Thanks ChaiHong for the great introduction! ^_^

That's about it for now. Updates for switzerland will definitely come about this time, since I'll be free on weekends... Muahahahahahha....
