Life is precious, so are the people around you!
Very recently, a friend of mine passed away due to an accident on the roads. He used to be my ex-boyfriend for a short period when I was 13. I've only seen and heard of him from Facebook recently and now he's gone. I was initially quite shocked by the fact that someone I used to be close to is gone. Memories of him started flowing back and it was quite emotionally challenging for me, but I'm feeling better now. It's a really werid, sourish feeling, it's like eventhough I've not been close to him for the past 8 years, I feel the loss..
Rest In Peace Brian, May God be with you and I hope His love touches you, wherever you are.. I'll always remember your cute smile :)
People do take each other for granted and I feel that we should be constantly reminded that our family and friends are important people in our lives and we should treasure one another as much as we can!
Anyway... some great news.. The life that was lost marks the beginning of a new one!
My sister is expecting her THIRD and I pray hard that it's a baby girl!!
I wanna have a baby niece! :) I think I'll really dote on my niece if I have one :P Lots of cute and pinkish stuff!
I have a ton of things to do on my list, but as usual, I'm procrastinating... I MUST get rid of this bad habit and start! Recently, I've been hooked onto lots of dramas nowadays.. lol..

Recently, I've been having the urge to start blogging once again!
I guess most people just love to type and share stories about their daily/recent life activities or just simply rant at a personal page of theirs to let their emotions out, happy or sad.
I've just came back from Cameron Highlands on Monday night, was there since Saturday, had a long car ride up to Genting before heading towards our main destination. It was a bumpy and dizzy ride for me up the winding road of Cameron Highlands, I guess it was because we took such a long tme to reach the top. Honestly, the place was not what I had originally pictured it in my mind. All along I thought that Cameron Highlands was a nice and cold place with a 'boh teh' plantation, a strawberry farm and some new country-themed villages. I had the image of a really clean-cut, quiet place on top of a mountain. :P haha..
When I reached, I was quite disappointed in fact, on the way up to our apartment, there were many mini villages with shops, lots of strawberry farms and such. There's even KFC, Mary Brown and other chapalang shops around. I didn't expect them to be like JB to have lots of shops around, my idea of Cameron Highlands has always been a really quiet place. Anyway, when we finally reached the apartment, I was quite fussy. Our unit was huge, however the place was old..
It has a master bedroom, 2 other rooms, a toilet and even a kitchen with all the furniture+utensils+cooking ware etc.. The view from the balcony was refreshing and soothing.. You can see the mountains, lots of trees and of course the beautiful clouds seem to be so near.
The main highlight was the cooling weather which you don't get in SG and of course the fun of plucking your own strawberries! :) The vegetables are realllllyy fresh, they have really sweet mini cherry tomatoes. Check our Facebook for the photos!
Anyway, I would like to share this with everyone who reads my post! (If there's even anyone.. :P)
TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria
Every person, no matter how much faith they have or how good a person they are will face disappointments. It may be something simple like not getting that promotion you really hoped for, or not closing that big deal you worked so hard on. Maybe you didn't qualify for a house you really wanted. Or, it may be something more serious like a relationship not working out, the death of a loved one, or some kind of illness in your body. Whatever it may be, the reality is that we’re all going to suffer some setbacks. But I believe one of the main keys to overcoming disappointments is learning to let go of the past. The past weighs you down and holds you back.
If you feel "stuck" today, you may want to examine what you're holding on to. Be willing let go of the past by choosing forgiveness. Who hurt you? Who wronged you? Release it to God. Do you need to forgive yourself? Do you need to receive God's forgiveness? Make the choice today to let go of the past so that you can experience the bright future God has in store for you!

I'm trying to study accounting now but I just can't get my butt sticked onto the chair! Can't help but use the computer.. heh..
I guess I'm quite far behind in my studies currently, due to the fact that I've been slacking, been watching 'One Piece' almost everyday :P It's a Japanese anime, it's really funny & cute.. haha.. I even bought their figurines at Kallang Leisure Park last Friday. Crazy me.. but they were on sale!
And also the fact that I've got plenty of packing to do in this small & squeezy room, everything's so messy. . . & I got to do the laundry as well otherwise someone will keep going on & on and I can't stand that!!
How I wish I had more than 24 hrs a day... who doesnt??
I've got an interview tmr after school at the DDB building which is quite near my place, gotta attend the graduation ceremony on Thursday and lug that gown there... yes, I've collected it already and it's long and oversized.. haha!
I've been listening to Jason Mraz's 'Im Yours' almost everyday.. haha... It seems like I heard 2 versions of it... I prefer the one there though:
http://www.imeem.com/jasonmrazLove the live version too! Love his voice, he looks good too.. heheh..

I was just out awhile ago with my family, we were having dinner @ Vivo Sushi Tei & I got to see Baby Zachariah! :)
He looks so cute & lovely, words alone just can't describe how he looks!
Anyway, while we were in the car, it started pouring heavily suddenly, & i mean SUDDENLY!
Eventho the walkway's sheltered while walking up to my unit, the rain just couldnt stop blowing in to the corridors & I got wet..
This shows how unpredictable life is.
Lots of things running through my mind but I guess the best thing is to not think too much & just keep myself occupied!
Which is why I started looking for a part-time job! It's sortof essential to me since I have almost no source of income anymore & I can't tolerate that! haha. More likely no money for shopping.
Anyway, I would like to gain more working experience as well..
The pay for a part-timer isnt good but well, what to expect? I'm looking to work around 3 days a week so that I can have ample time to study.. a few hundred bucks per month is good enough already!
I received a call for one of the agencies, it's an asset management company & they're looking for a part timer to work in the afternoon in their compliance department. & the best thing is it's in Raffles Place right where my school is & it might be UBS! haha.. yes, I have a thing for UBS since I saw that $70k per month payslip while working in UOB sometime ago.
It'll be a good opportunity since it's related to what I'm studying & I think the card scanner thing to get access to the life lobbys is quite cool at One raffles quay. haha! Altho the bank may not be located there.
Another call I got today was from SingHealth (yes, I want to see all the young & handsome doctors!) It fully matches what I'm lookin for, 3 working days, 4 hour each & the pay is considerably reasonable. The location's near my place, it's near SGH at Outram Park.
I'm trying to push myself to do up a website to sell the jewellery my mum makes, supposed to do it for quite sometime already :P Hopefully it'll sell!
How I wish I have enough money to pay for everything, to even buy a house & own a car! haha... I feel so poor & pathetic! damn... & just last night I dreamt of striking 4D.. I even remember the number -.-", maybe it'll open tmr. hehe.. but I didnt buy! :P
Time to scout for a skin for the webbie! Will update here when it's up! Advertising's sucha headache...

My blog is so dead, life is so boring!
I really wonder if anyone is reading this!
Well, anyway... the latest happenings...
A new addition to the family! :)
Baby Zachariah, my 2nd nephew and he spells adorable!
I can just sit and stare at him for a long time! He sleeps alot and he is just so cute!
I took lots of photos of him, just as i did when Luke was born. I think I have a collection of photos to give them when they grow up, from the 1st day they were born! hehe..
Looking at how painful my sis felt really makes me wonder when will be my turn, not so soon obviously, nobody even wants to marry me! haha..
A new baby always brings the family closer together!
However, it is also important not to neglect the other child & give him the attention he needs as well, he might feel left out since the attention is diverted to the new baby.
My mum seems to be biased towards Zach, always mentioning how cute & lovely he is as compared to the other. -.-" Oh well.
Will post some photos up when I get them transferred over to the com!
School is still the same.. never got to know anyone new yet.. it's good sitting alone, you won't get distracted during classes & u don't have to wait for anyone. haha...

Stupid me.... I typed a relaly long post and accidentally pressed on some stupid button! and it's ALL GONE!! damn!
I was typing... It's Wednesday! And I got to know only 2 new friends so far.. don't really know much of them yet.. still a long way to go! [to know more ppl :D]
Gotta study more of Econs.. it's much more in-depth compared to the Econs I studied during my diploma.. Now it's all about drawing graphs!
I'm still not used to school life, it gets really boring during the weekdays after school when I'm all alone at home trying to study.. it seems that I have seriously MUCH more free time than I used to have in the past.. I'm supposed to do lotsa self-studying durng my free time, but here I am, blogging.. :D
I miss StarHub! Eventhough sometimes the work is boring and repetitive daily, I still miss it! The people, the environment & of course, the money! hahaha..
I've been having dreams at night of going back to work, and even clearing my email inbox! lol!
It should take me some time before I completely get used to my current life.. :)
Don't work complain, work also complain, humans are never satisfied aren't they? hehe, or maybe it's just me!
Anyway, Charmaine's wedding is like next week.. I also have a Graduation Ceremony to attend for my PSB diploma.. It'll be my first time wearing a graduation gown (you can view it here ->
http://www.psb-academy.edu.sg/graduation/dresscode.php) & I won't exactly say I feel excited.. heh..
It'll prolly be the only time that I get to attend sucha thing since for my current UOL honours, the graduation ceremony will be in University of London in UK itself, unless I have the $ to fly over to attend la. Haha! or if I get sponsored (anyone?) :P
Time to go hit the books!
Will not be long before my next post! :D

Yes, my blog is rusting!
Have been too lazy to update daily.. heh.. Lots of major events happened!
1) I left StarHub on 22nd August & I still miss them!! :(
They were so sweet, they bought a PSP for me as a farewell gift! And it's the the colour & series that I've always wanted! Blume Series in Pink (it's glittery pinnk!) Very nice & sweet :)
2) I officially started my full-time studies today!
Well, day 1 was okay I guess, kindof feels like Secondary school as it ends at 1pm and I see school kids in uniforms all around.
Gotta learn to be hardworking, I wanna get a first class honours, haha! Tough ehh... but it's not impossible!
Got to also try & get my butt out to the gym to lose some fats! Charmaine's wedding is like coming in less than a month (Oh no!) & I still AM FAT!!
Since I stopped work, I have no more reasons to not go to Amore! Crap..
Ookay, shall update more later or tmr! :D
Have a greattt day!!
