All set, Ready to go!!

Hey Hey fellow friends, well the time has come for me to say goodbye. Yup this is it, I'm done with Uni and I'm heading home. Its sad I know but hey when one chapter ends another begins. So I'll like to take this opportunity to thank everyone that I've met in my journey here.

1) I'll like to thank my parents for supporting me through the years. Without them I wouldn't be where I am today. Thank you mum n dad. I love you!

2) Mark. For believing in me and carrying me when I had given up. Thank you for being my teacher, my lover and my best friend. I love you and I will for the rest of my life.

3) My Girls aka my Sisters.

Mags>> 'Sleeping' with you was an experience that I would never forget. All the funny classic events ('Andy' or the 'fishy fishy fishy'). For being my pillar of hope and just by being you made my life here a better place to be in. I will never forget all the times we've spent goofing around and all the special moments we've shared.

Adez>> The times we spent at Unilodge was unforgettable. Remember the nights when you would come knocking on my door with a toothbrush. Those were the days! Thank you for being there when I needed support and giving me advice when I was lost. Oh yah how can I forget, thank you for sharing clothes with me! =) Miss 'Moo Moo' pants.

Debz>> My hardworking and determined friend. I've tried so hard to be so like you but I always never seem to get it right. I guess it takes alot to be someone like you and I'll always be there trying to learn. Thank you for the times when you took care of me when I was sick, for helping me learn and for cooking all those delicious desserts. Girl! you have to cook for me sometime soon.

Nel>> Nelly Nelly!! What can I say. Thank you for just being you. You have brought so much fun in my life. Thank you for all the times that you would just sit and listen to me blabber on. Thanks for all the shopping therapy and just the chill out sessions that we have.

Well girls, its been a long journey for us all and there's more to come for sure. i'm just going to leave you guys for a while but I promise I'll be back. I love you girls, you've been my everything for the last few years.

4) The boyfriends and the brother. Yes, that's mainly you Pascal, Robs and Nav.

Pas>> Well I guess if it wasn't for me to invite Pas to join our circle of friends, you both would have to find another way to get close. =) Thanks Pas for pushing me to Mark at UTS and getting to know his name. I guess we're even huh.

Robs>> Thank you for being my little brother. Im going to miss all the jumping up and down, playing with the 'light saber', 'dragonball' and those dance moves. hehehe..Now waking up to pee in the middle of the night won't be same without finding you out there. =P

Nav>> We've only known each other a short time but I'm rest assured that Mark is well taken care of. Seeing those loving stares you give him make me realise that you 'love' him. hehehe..

5) For the rest of the friends that I've missed. Thank you for making my journey here alot worth while.

So this is it. World, please be prepared for little Nerdy Ner is coming.

'HARD' at work

Good NEWS!!

hey hey people..well I kinda got a piece of good news. I'm staying for 1 more day!! Yaay!! hehehe...well I found out that Mr Pascal Bobillier is leaving for Singapore the day after my original flight back home so I managed to squeeze another day and catch the same flight as him!
Hip hip Horray...now Mags is trying to come up with reasons for me to stay here longer..Hahaha...Keep trying girl. Its not me you have to convinced.

BE PREPARED...PHOTOS OVERLOAD

Here are the pics from past events..Sorry it's took me so long to post them up...

Story of my life lately...

Like Sands through the hour glass, so are the days of my life

1) Its that time of the semester where work load seem to suddenly pile waaaay beeyond your head. I think on average, I'm writing at least 10 000 words per week. And that shall be carried on for another couple of weeks.

2) My poor baby's been having the hardest time in his life. Just this week, he handed in his thesis on Wed, had 2 essays due on Thurs and 1 project assignment on Fri. So his lack of sleep and the build-up of stress has given his short-temper a push. So lately there's this invisble tension between us due to uni. Boy do I hate UNI!!!

3) Well, I'm glad to say, I'm done with assignments for a while now (till SUN), and I'll be getting to spend some time with my baby. Woo Hoo..FINALLY.

4) Counting down the days till I leave. (sob sob). Can't believe everything is coming to an end!! I never understood the saying "All good things must come to an end". Must they really?? why can't we hold on to what we truly cherish and rid the bad bad stuff (which apparently tends to stay longer).

5) By the time exams are over, it is OFFICIAL!!! I would have finished my 15 years of education life. Wow that's more than half of my life spent on education. Sheesh!! =) Now its time for me to step into the world of the workforce. So world, here I come..please be prepared.

Rascal Flatts

I think I'm in love. I was brought up listening to country but my ears have never heard anything so beautiful. aaahhh...well for those that can't stand country then I'm sorry to inform that this is one of those kind of bands with the annoying country accent. But none the less, these guys are amazing. With the soulful lyrics..I could go to heaven. Okay that's my thoughts for today.

Hands up for MY GUY!!!

Wish List

Only a 5 weeks more till I say bye to Sydney and hello Singapore. Can't believe that after 5 years of freedom, its all going to end soon. Can't be all that bad right?! I'll be starting another chapter in my life and ending this one doesn't mean the end of the journey for me.

Anyway the good news is that, upon going home, I'll be getting the phone that I want and NEED. My current phone is such an old school. I need a change. So here it is, the Samsung D500. The thing I'm afraid of is that I'm such a Nokia fan and this wonderful phone is from Samsung. So has anyone any comments about Samsung and their 'faults' if any??

Dead but breathing...

Just to let you guys know that I'm alright! Just that I've been pilled with work up till my neck and my trusty laptop died on me last Monday, so I'm laptop-less at the moment.
So just hang in there till I return k..till then leave your mark at my chat log at the bottom.

Cheerio

In Honour of Wee Kim Wee

A meaningful read ... Very touching indeed ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EULOGY BY GRANDDAUGHTER OF FORMER PRESIDENT WEE KIM WEE - LIM HUI MIN Weekend May 7, 2005

MY grandfather's achievements as an editor, a diplomat and a head of state are now the stuff of legend. You would have read all these things in the newspapers or watched them on television - he was a public man. What I should talk about is my grandfather as a family man. I cannot talk about my grandfather without also talking about my grandmother. She was the rock of his life. His last thoughts were of her. They were holding hands when he finally went to sleep on Monday morning.

Last year, we celebrated their 68th wedding anniversary. After dinner he presented her with a red packet full of money, which he then followed up with a jewellery box - because my grandmother loves wearing jewellery. There was a jade brooch inside the box. And, in return, in front of everybody, she kissed him three times. They were 87 and 88 at that time.

Once, (when) I was learning the piano, I thought I would learn some songs to play at my grandmother's birthday party. I asked my grandfather what songs he thought she would like. To my surprise he gave me a type-written sheet (with songs listed)in order of preference. He was always a usy man - he used to tell me that he had two million things on his mind. But at some point in his life, he had sat down and thought hard about what music my grandmother would enjoy and typed it all out and kept it in special folder ready to be whipped out at anytime.

Husbands who are here today: Do you have a list of your wife's top 10 favourite songs in a folder? That's a lesson you can take from my grandfather. They celebrated 69 years of marriage together in April this year. I thank my grandfather from the bottom of my heart for showing us what it really is like to love a person. I also thank my grandfather for showing us what it is to love life.

He was a man who enjoyed life. He collected snuff bottles, coins and stamps. He travelled the world; he played sports; he planted fruit trees; he loved the smell and taste of hazelnut coffee. Whenever his grandchildren visited him in his office - whether at the Malaysian High Commission, the embassy in Tokyo, the Singapore Broadcast Corporation or the huge halls of the Istana - there would come moments when he would wink at us, open his desk drawer and say "have a chocolate".

Unknown to my grandmother, who disapproved of his snacking in between meals, he always kept a secret stash of Hawaiian hazelnut chocolates, which e ate out of her sight during office hours. My grandfather loved animals as well. He liked to watch horses running. He like ogs and cats and he liked fish. At the last count, his house contained 11 chickens, eight terrapins, two goldfish and one dog. Once, someone gave him six turkeys. I think the idea was for them to be fattened up and eaten. My grandfather looked at them and spoke to them. He gave them names. I remember my mother saying to me, "Oh no, he has given them names - we'll never get rid of them now". And so the turkeys were with us for quite some time.

But one day, they started irritating the chickens so my grandfather decided to find them a new home. The Singapore Zoo was chosen. When the family heard about this, of course we all joked that the turkeys would be fed to the crocodiles. He was so alarmed by this that he made special arrangements with the zoo. They were to send him a written report every time a turkey died. The report had to state the cause of death and age of each turkey.

That was the kind of man my grandfather was. He revered and respected life - even the life of an animal. The stories of his life are, to me, all stories of love. If you wish to honour his memory in your life, then live your life to the full, stand by your friends, cherish your family, listen to everyone with an open mind and welcome those who cross your path with an open heart.

He has gone on another journey now. We have spent the past five days saying goodbye to him and it is now the time to let him go.

From all your grandchildren and great grandchildren: I know you love us all so very much. Goodbye gong gong (granddad). Goodbye.

Gdbye my Lover - James Blunt

You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I've kissed your lips and held your head.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been addicted to you.

And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your child.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bear my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your feet.

I hate CityRail

We will only need each other, we'll bleed together ,our hands will not be taught be hold another, We're the special two. We can only see each other, we'll breathe together, these arms will not be taught to need another. We're the Special Two.
