Be Strong. Be Positive. Have hope for God is with you

22 July:
It was definitely worth it to take leave on this day
I REALLY NEEDED A BREAK!
and realised that now i have to save my leaves alr
felt so relaxed for once and away from work, not having to worry this and that and just living ur simple life in your comfy home

went for a farewell party organised by Emily
hahah thank you so much for inviting me, i am a rare guest indeed HAHA

23 July:
for the first time, felt so recharged at work
everything seemed to be so well-organised and i really love it
had a private talk with my manager and really felt blessed for what he said
anyway, even if it happens or not, i still want to thank God for everything He has done and put into my life

*I have always been wanting to blog abt my days, they can never get anymore less interesting

24 July:
I got the best opportunity in PSA to represent my company and also my department to be an ambassador hosting the NYP students
it was definitely a great experience for me which i never want to let go
I got "sabo" but it was a fair choice i should say, thank you so much :)
I so wanted to go and of cos got excited and could not wait for it
had briefing with Derek (the one whom i thanked for shortlisting me, finally got to work with him), Janice and Eugene to know how to guide the students on that day itself
it was so fun seeing poly students, reminds me of just last year, and mixing so well with the lecturers were definitely my pleasure and honour
talking to them abt my experience as an intern was indeed a rare opportunity for someone to share at this age and in this company, i should say i definitely accomplished more than just Human Resource, no doubt, my knowledge may lack of things that i forgot but the journey allowed me to see how God was / is working in my life, planning my direction and all
going back to PPT 1 & 2 was amazing, ppl whom i dont know recognised me and still remembered my name, i felt thankful :) met Mr Choo, Joy, and Sharon!! I miss her, but was sad that i didnt get to see Lina
got the chance to go for a port tour and it was so fun, like being a child taken to see big containers and vessels and all and you go like WOW, COAL (cool)


Life doesnt just stops here..
for me, it goes on and on and drains you down
BUT... this is when you will need to learn to pick urself up in a positive way and facing it strongly?
i realised I have been shedding tears almost every week and if this continues, no one can help me even if i needed someone
and so, with all courage, i decided to change my perspective of seeing things and prayed
pouring out my troubles to God and being clear on what i am saying and going to do next
this, to me, is important!
it will be point if i keep saying tmr will be a better day but not doing anything abt it or to it
today, daniel came over to my table and told me say that
each time he sees me, he felt that i become skinner and skinner...
become more tired, and lack of energy or alertness kind of thing
it was definitely a good thing if i continue like this and slim down but it was definitely never good as an overall consideration
life has to go on and we just got to live with it
treasure what God has given to you
cos one day, you feel that you have done so much and drained urself down just becos you are trying to make ppl happy instead of taking care of yourself

anyway, i shall stop blogging here
i thanked God for obstacles and trials that He has placed in my life

went with one of my colleagues as well there, Janice
and the shoot ended within like 30 mins only OMG

it was such a fun experience and getting to know how actors or shows are being filmed
everyone especially those in my dept were all so excited for me and so eager to know how was the shoot going hehe
i am so glad that GOD has given me this opportunity to be selected to learn from this and perhaps, made new friends hehe

I love my dad...

Hi everyone, i helped my dad to squeeze his blackheads hahahaha
and he was so willing to allow me to

i am back to blog alr and i am kinda excited to blog abt attending for Emma's dance concert
it was amazing, went on a wednesday hehe :)
well, overall, i felt that western dance were the best
there was one which at first i thought it was a zombie dance piece as the dancers were wearing a white night dress with all their hair let down, some even sprayed it to make it like a mad scientist who just did a wrong experiment kind HAHA
and as they dance, there were like sharp and quick movements of flipping hair here and there
(it was in remembrance of ppl who suffered in the tsunami)
i didnt really see any link but the music was really like into zombie style haha

another western dance piece was abt TELEPHONE
a group of dancers literally carried out a big box - telephone booth
and the dance piece presented two ways of communication comparing the past and the present
like cups and string and the phone booth
it was pretty cool
(it was in remembrance of how important communication was)

the last western dance piece was abt students preparing for exams
the dancers were dressed in their uniform and each of them carrying a table on stage
i was thinking, hmmm what can tables do to make a dance piece amazing? how much can you dance with the tables
and to my surprise, the dance piece was pretty amazing HAHA
they had formations and dance portrayed the feeling of how students feel when they attend for exams
IT WAS GOOD!

there were indian malay and chinese dance
i felt that the chinese dance were at least somewhat better compared to the indian and malay dances, however the music they played was too ear-blasting to the core, i almost became deaf, not exaggerating here
and sorry to say, i nearly fell asleep for the malay and the indian dance hmmmmm
melinda said it was boring so yeah HAHAHAH not sophia say horh

so overall, western is the best! i love it really! its more into the dance i would love to dance and perform
also somehow like hsinyi (my executive) 's kind of contemporary dance :)

work has been getting better and better as this week i find it kinda fulfilling for me
more meaningful work to do la, i wont say what i did for the past few months arent meaningful but there is some level of value there though
and i am starting to enjoy them much nowadays
i have been waiting for this feeling to come mann and yes THANK GOD!
however, dont think everything is perfect, not all work i am in charge of are enjoyable
although yea but somewhere down the road, i just feel that there are some tasks which are erm, kind... i dont feel like doing it la
but well, this is not a childcare centre but in a working environment so i cant say i choose to do this but not this so yeah
and its the attitude lorh

during my first few weeks, i ever asked eugene like hows ur work, is it boring or dont feel like doing kind of thing becos during that period i was doing something i hate to do, which is to read and digest rules and regulations etc and he told me its the attitude towards work lorh which the answer really turned me off but well, i am going to say the same thing as him lorh
its the attitude towards work, sometimes i just told myself no choice, just have to do den i will do it better than having an unwilling heart to do right?
THIS IS LIFE :)

but there are nice people around which i do appreciate
but sometimes i think i appreciated too much to an extent that some ppl kept clinging onto me and just get me involved into certain unnecessary things -.-
sigh, are you all living the same life as me? i hope not :X

but still appreciate life and move on :) stay happy !!! hehe :P

organising events and communicating everything to go well as planned
its fun, something like what i see when i do in hotel
and the tensity that comes out from it and learning how to solve certain problems can be really really fun too hehe!!
had the SAF day today and yeah, although the messed up feeling was really sucky but i overcame it
and met a person who knows me but i dont HAHA how joke
sorry la PSA too big alr
Bee Eng, one of the PAs, asked me what i may be interested in, well i went honest with her and told her abt this though so yeah, but not saying that i totally hate what i am doing but i am more or less having things in hands to handle alr, and each of these, i take it as a training for me :)
