Little Random Details About Me

Today was lk the busiest day ever. Had presentation in the morning, CORP test in the afternoon, interview after the test. Stayed in sch til 1230am doing the ppt, still had to study when i go home. Slept for only 3 hrs last night! I was soo scared i'll be late for my morning presentation. Florence lian was one of the judges for our presentation!! The judges were impressive. I aspire to be like them someday. On a side note, florence's hair and colour's very nice =) Ok i cannot tahan liao.. I've to slp. i'll continue doing tmr's ppt tmr and most imptly my corp report! the test is once again a flop.. guessed every single qn. Never had such scary exam before man. totally pure luck. *** A super late pic tt i've recieved. Work and Travel gathering at Hooters. Girl power woohoo~

My mum refuse to let me go to HK for my supposedly grad trip. She thinks HK sux. She thinks the ppl are so not friendly, things are expensive, I've been there lk 3 times before and... I'm jobless yet i'm still thinking of playing. My dad thinks she's crazy haha. All he asked me when i asked him abt the trip was.. Dad: Go there for wat? Me: Duh.. go overseas of course holiday la. Dad: Go with who? Me: My SMU friends lor. All gals Dad: All gals? No guys? Ok go... hahah everyone thinks my dad is funny.. ok i really wonder wat's with the all gals.. i thought it's better to have guys isn't it? Anyway the pt is... I'm still going to pluck my courage to ask my mum again. Though my dad thinks i shld ignore her, she'll be nagging at me for life! i swear!!! She's super power.. she kindda lost her voice these 2 days but she could still nag and put down the trip soo much yesterday. She insist i shld go somewhere else but HK! I think she's lying though......

I've nv ending projs to be done. I'm seldom a last min person when it comes to my part of the proj. But, this sem, i always do my part only in the morning before my meeting. SBM proj has been such a flop so far.. my hardest marketing proj ever.. no creative juices are flowing.. SO here i am, taking a break and blogging on the happenings of the week. There's quite a photo galore but I shall post the weekends pics another time. After I've the time to sort them out. Celebrated a belated birthday on fri night. Not bad.. relaxation time after an entire day of failed brain storming. I can so c the gloomy clouds over all our heads during proj meeting. We all felt so screwed. BUT no no i'm nv going to let tt happen.. I'm sure we would think of something *cross my fingers* Dinner at Bakerzinn was good! I loved my pasta yummmmy~ We moved to Chjimes after dinner. Headed to a pub called Le Baroque. The life band was good but we were more into talking and was screaming our l...

I love my international business grp mates to bits! The best team I have this sem. They're all so easy to work with. No awarkward silence, no tense moments. Furthermore, i only noe them this sem =) Alot have to be attributed to HEROS! we all love the show thus the nick names hah. *** For project sake, we made another trip to another European MNC.

I love travelling but not travelling in Singapore. I've been ard Singapore so much these days. After going to the west, now i went to the east. Far... east.. all the way to Changi airport. ( just for the sake of my overseas friends, Singapore is not very big. Travelling from one end to another would maybe take about an hour or so. I'm just lazy haha ). Ok so i was at the airport having dinner with Fiona and Sharon yu. Actually I do love the airport. I love taking planes, seeing planes taking off etc. The other particular food place i love in the airport is Popeyes! Yummy~~ Only place that serves Popeyes ! think they shld open more outlets in Singapore. *** Went swimming again today. think our sch pool's quite cool too hah. It's so empty and clean. We've the pool to ourselves. Going to make full use of it before i graduate and my card becomes in valid.

I mean literally to the west part of Singapore, a place totally out of my usual radius hah. The ever oh-so-nice elgin picked me up from my hs at 1040 am in the morning and off we went to NTU, in hope of studying for the day. ( pai sei la elgin, make u wait for me for 40 mins haha i bet u seldom wait for ppl so i give u a different experience LOL ) Anyway, I think guys shld give a break to NTU gals. I don't c anything wrong with them. In fact i did spot a few rather sweet looking ones. Though there were less short skirts, but i think i spotted more short shorts! There's really no diff between gals in smu vs ntu. It's all in the mind. ( ok i'm speaking for myself.. smu peeps reading this can dun agree with me ). On the reverse note, there's seriously lack of eye candy for gals. Poor things... no shuai ge!!! esp since the population of guys is lk double or even more of smu! People aside, it's been sometime since i went to such an old sch building. though i've b...

Apparently, this's the world's slimmest 3G handset. But i just hate the look! Look lk a calculator. So wide and flat. I've a hard time msging with 1 hand, which is wat i normally do. i also need to go through more than the usual no. of steps juz to send a sms. I mean the features and all r supposedly very good. The phone even has a 2 mega pixels cam. But i'm more of a aesthetic person. I prefer it to look good than to have good features since i hardly use any features in a phone. Well i got it for free when i changed to the mio plan coz my dad refuse to let me pay money to buy a phone! so irritating. Now i've to wait for his starhub plan to be up before i can change to a new phone coz starhub phones are always cheaper than singtel! I really wonder if i'll ever get use to this phone. I mean i always think it's a matter of use to.

God's fair. It's surprising how i always mention God when i don't have a religion. Anyway, my entry today is abt the gift of my friends. Life revolving friends can be such complex issues. Some friends can be such pain in the ass while some.. ever so sweet hah ( coz they're there to hear me bitch.. kidding la! ) But seriously, the gist is, I'm glad to have friends lk u guys. Thanx bryan and of course ur BBM partner evan. U guys r lk my "always there to hear me bitch" friends in uni. Even when u guys r out, u're still the ones listening and give the right comments, encouragements, advice and blah blah. How can i ever live without u guys hahaha ( I guess it's just the time of the night where i start blabbering crap.. appreciate it while u can.. i wun be tt nice anymore when sunlight shines ). Sometimes gals r not always the best ppl to bitch with. Main pt: I feel better letting it all out! Thanx!

I'm on the verge of failing a course and I've tons of notes to study but i so don't have a mood to. I'm lk "it's my lest sem.. heck.." oh noooo... i feel so bad for having this mentality. I'll do some work after this entry. Anyway, I had 2 gatherings last night. Cedar Point (CP) peeps gathering and another at Villa Bali. Will post pics of CP peeps another time. At Villa Bali, I met another stable of elgin's men though elgin wasn't there hah... SML... oops.. hahah (private joke.. i can so hear steffi saying "mel u're so meannnnn" but u guys r the one who told me abt it) It's all in the name of fun and they won't even noe i'm calling them tt. Unless.. of course the big mouth elgin who's reading this entry tells them. But they were fun ppl hah esp Mr. Big aka panda. He's so hilarious. Finally... a grp pic before we bid goodbye...

Had an interview this morning with a fund house that is setting up its operations in Singapore. It's so wierd going for this interview as it's a job that I've nv thought of applying. Well I just got to know abt it through the net working session i attended. My friend was the one who wanted to know more about the co. Since i'm at the net working session, must as well give my resume and.. there.. they called me up. As all of u noe, i've no confidence in finance at all! I really wonder how i get my major. Yet now i'm going for a fund management position. Chim lehhhhh.. Job description alone scares me. It's everything i can't do in sch hah. But actually, i think it's basically reconciliation. But Yes, heeding the advice of the ever experienced Evan Goh, I'm going to be open to all options and i'm taking this as an experience. They're interviewing so many ppl, i might not get it anyway. Ok time for some pics taken during new year. really late ...

Headlines of today's Straits Times, Home section: Pet abuse case leads to family rift Not sure if i can put the pic up but i took it anyway. I don't give a damn abt the family rift. But my heart goes out to the poor dog. Which human in the right mind would beat a dog up til this state?!?! It was beaten up coz it bit the person but the person wasn't even hurt! Anyway, did i mentioned, I signed an online petition against animal abuse some time ago in dec haha. Nope i'm no animal lover. In fact, I never fancy animals and nature. Mel loves fast paced society like that of New York City. Tall buildings, traffic, shopping, ppl rushing ard rulez hah. I signed the petition partly because i was bored at internship and even though i don't like animals, i think they do not deserve to be beaten. Now, take a look at these pics... My bro's hamster, puny. Do u think it's cute? Well this stupid ( verbal abuse is different hurhur )thing bites! and it hurts! Did i mention i th...

This week was horrible and i'm glad the weekends r here. My corp reporting test was a flop. I guessed every single ans. Hope i dun fail pleaseeeeeee pleaseeee pleaseeeeeeeee!!! I'm lk how desparate man. Today was a busy day. Besides the test, I went for a networking session and also UOB-SMU alliance bbq at night. Wasn't alot of good companies at the net working session though. Alot of insurance haha poor things.. no one go to their booth. They approach ppl instead. BBQ at night was good!!! Wasn't really a bbq. More lk a grilled buffet table but the food was yummy. Our prof, kept pouring wine for us! Told him i'll turn red he juz laugh and pour more. Love him man.. he's the nicest prof i noe in SMU. Ever so friendly to everyone. Also made a couple of new friends who used to do projs for uob-smu alliance too. Some of them are already working. it was cool listening to all their stories. In any case, I'm glad this week is over. Wasn't the best week.

I really can't be bothered to please everyone now. I can never be nice all the time. Either way i appear to be, people would complain. Being silent, people say I never voice out my opinion. When i make some noise, people complain i'm always so sarcastic. Seriously i can be if i want to and i'm well aware of that. Blame it on selfishness or jealousy but i think if one's more comfortable doing it one's way.. fine.. don't complain. Loud and Expressive DOES NOT equate to u're right. Another discovery that i've made. People usually don't respond well to people who's exactly like them (i'm refering to being alike in the bad way). They just don't see it tt's all. Of course i jolly well know i might be refering to myself as well. Anyway i'm not as pissed anymore thus it speaks of my less evil words. But i can't leave it without putting something down in print. *printted by the devil in me*

What exactly is stress? I'm not sure if i've ever felt stress. I always hear the adults telling my cousins "Must be lk ur jie-jie.. always so happy go lucky" and my friends say "mel's the best la. mel's always lk...Sky drop she'll be there to hold everything". Well i smile graciously to all these comments. Yupz what a beautiful life everyone paint me to have. I'm glad to be seen in such light too. Moving on... There's 2 things i've discovered about myself (ok maybe not recently just that I've nv admitted it out loud). Whenever I dun have the mood to do the work i'm suppose to do or shld i say when i feel stress? (ok watever).. i'll be tempted to do 2 things: 1. Eat 2. Shop Both r not things that are good though ppl say it's ok to indulge once in a while. Firstly, my eat = to munching all day! I'm quite surprised at the amt of junk tt i can eat haha ppl always say "r u sure? u're still so skinny" Alrig...

With the courtesy of Faith, we held a little New Year gathering at her place. Thanks faith! *** My bro bought a Hamster yesterday! haha though i'm quite afraid of touching things beside humans. Especially since it's a furry little thing, i must say the hamster is quite cute!! Its really really smalll.. i've decided to call it puny! haha though it's not my hanster, i've forced my bro to call it tt too =) I dun care! hurhur... Nothing in its cage now (actually we placed it in a old fish tank). We only put in a toilet roll and it keeps hiding inside.

Reunion Dinner on New Year's Eve... New Year Day 1 (Chu yi) My fav dish. It's a vegetarian dish we always eat on Chu yi. Think only cantonese eats this. yummy.. and we also have to drink Cheng Teng. New Year Day 2 (Chu er)

Cheese said maybe I should pen my thoughts down. Actually, I did thought of it but i also hesistated about it. One thing about blogs, which to me is supose to be like an online diary... A diary is suppose to be somewhere u can write down personal stuff. However, everyone who knows my blog add is reading this entry. I feel wierd saying things that I do not want people to know about me but I also want an avenue to let things out. So.. this time, heck! People who read it.. please keep it to yourself k.. Sorry for letting u c this side of me too. I think the me that i portray is always the care free, forever happy mel.. but i'm sorry to disappoint, this's not always the case. Well, we were just talking about jobs. Just a short short talk su min dear haha borrowing ur bf listening ear coz i was bored. I was saying how much i envy my friend for getting a job already. As my friend's working the European hours for operations, she commands a whopping 4k paycheck!! Tt's a huge pa...

I want to go overseas toooo. Lucky derrick's going to Italy for exchange. Just received his msg. He's on the plane now. I can so visually his surroundings. I loveee taking planes hah but.. of course not the budget ones. One of the things i love abt plane rides are the food. Yeah i noe i'm wierd but i loveeeeee. I always get to eat my bro's share of food coz he suffers from motion sickness so he only sleeps through a plane ride. Kind of regret not going for exchange. But none of my clicks in sch went either and none of them regretted. Oh maybe nette did regret but it was entirely not her fault. Luckily i decided to be independent a little and go for work and travel. Otherwise i would have 1 more regret. Once again, my independent was spurred by nette. Hah... Thanx nette i realised tt u played quite a part in my travelling during smu days haha. Ok better start reading a bit more for my midterm tomorrow. Super no mood. i wonder if it's only me.. but i always wonder how...

The only exciting thing of the week.. My new furniture for my room have arrived! I've an entire new room. Except that i've kept my old study table. Din want it at first but i guess my dad was right in asking me to keep it. It is indeed quite useful. Now i'm studying in my room instead of the living room. Feel that my room is rather cozy =) I've upgraded to a queen size bed. coool... I really like my rm now. Still in the midst of making it more perfect. As for my old furniture, I do feel a little bad in throwing them away. Well i can't wait for the salvation army coz they'll only be free after CNY. there's no space in my hs for my old furniture. I always think that here I am with new stuf while some poor ppl out there doesn't even have a table to study on. On a side note, Happy valentine's day peeps.. I've mid term on V day la.. anyway no more little pressie for V day this year. But i still love u gals hah. On a side side side note.. everything th...

Do.... Eat the wan tan mee at Sunshine plaza! Although there's a branch at bugis, the sunshine plaza one is much better! Don't club at.... 1. Butter Factory 2. MOS Now butter fac is ranked 1st on my "do-not-go clubs" list. My quote for the night..." I rather dance with ah bengs than to dance on an empty dance floor " In -between... Would you drive this car? heh I was quite thrilled when my dad drove pass this hello kitty car. I was just thinking of painting my rm pink when i noticed this entirely pink, hello kitty car. The words on the side of the car says "Princess Kitty". The interior has pink fur and alot of hello kitty accesories. Though i'm quite a fan of pink, i doubt i've the courage to drive such a car. I think it's a sweetness over kill. It was the centre of attraction. Everyone's staring at it. Wonder who's the driver.. hmm...
