I don't understand why do I become so weak since last week? Come on, it was only 2 coffees plus laksa?! How could it turn out to be a throat infection, follow by feevr, flu and cough and worse still, voice-less! hohho. hardly took so many MCs... if not for the IHPS stuffs, I wont bring back my lappy to check company mail. ha. sick me. Indeed i am sick.
选择
To iron out the details on the package makes my head swirl! Kekek. I ask for it! Read a comic by 吴悠律, it says..
虽然凋谢势在必行，但花儿从来不选择枯萎。世事难料，所以选择应该不问对错；而勇于承担后果的每一个选择，其实都能成就一个成长。
I like the 插图and the little column which this guy had on every Sunday Zaobao. His thought can be random but quite down to earth. He will use such weird or rather 天马行空illustration to bring across his point. hoho, i am gonna to miss that.
I also like the bi-weekly column by princessLee on Sunday Times. she is quite vocal and skeptical. What attracts me is she dare to criticize even if it opposes her brother and father's policy. hoho. She is being pragmatic and i think to a certain extent, she empathize with ground level people; given that most prince and princess wont understand the bitterness of 小市民！
Where is Sumiko Tan? She must have enjoying her marriage life now in UK? oh man, i also like her article and when is she coming back? sob sob. I like Colin's bi-weekly column on his NYC + yakuza baby life. Interesting guy.
WAR
there is bound to have a warfare in WS soon since both Ming2 and daJie will fight for the expert position. Personally i support dajie and prefer her to be the lead. To me, she is more well -rounded though her years in BPD is not as long as ming2.
Recently we also got into a conversation whereby "If you're a boss, would you pay an employee the amount of $$ you're getting today to do the work you're doing? ". Peow and Myself said we might not. Ha. it does not mean we are overpaid, just that we think we can be stretched further and contribute more. of course there are people thinking that they will. from this small survey, we can tell that who has higher self value! sometimes your value does not determine what you do but rather who you are. Like Uncle Dennis told me recentlyt, it is not what you deliver but how you do it. That's how the manager deal with FPR question. ha.
PC is another victim of all these expert promotion. His peers seem to advance and he somehow got stucked. He is a nice guy. today it is LeNing's bday, so he is off to celebrate the bday! kekek. sweet daddy.

Moving
Things has been moving fast for the past 2 weeks though there are moments that are just so pissing and i lost my cool. Seriously, do i need to be that agitated when
I don't get update on the date?
I don't get informed on the last minute absence?
mum refused to rest when she is sick?
you're supposed to be the ic and yet you are unaware?
the answer is NO. Guess what, God has brought good out of the not so nice event which I thought it was. It is about human interactions. It is about communications. It is about having things happenned in His time. i had other blessings when things are not my way.
We have new addition to the family, welcome our little Yue Chen. Pretty little girl!! kekeke. I shall try and get you something during my preview trip. Thank God for His gift!!
I thought I was a bit mad last few days since i strike 2 random conversation with a stranger and a not so familiar colleague. They have the similarity. They have been to the place where i will go soon for good!!
This first stranger is an indian. Ha. I just cut his conversation with his friend on a bus. Yes, out of no way. I got too excited as I overheard that he was there and will be there for years. Those people beside me must have thought that i am an indecent girl, how come i give that person my namecard and talk so much!! Haha. oh man, queen scared me. True enough, that guy called my office number the very next day! well, i didn't bother to take down his number.
The second guy SK is a nice guy. Ha. he asked if i am a Christian as he overheard my phone conversation while q-ing for shuttle bus months ago. Was i that loud? ha. He even can tell that I attend Chinese Church and read chinese bible. Ha. so rare. i mean nowadays it's rare that you will find local reading ch bible, going for ch services. Cool. He told me about the church he went and said what he missed most is not the company but the pastor there. hoho. wowow. I was quite worried on which church should i go to and you see... God sms me via His angels.
It is still a lengthy process... you can say i am pessimistic and to certain extent, i am. maybe that's me! I am not like what my outlook says about me -> cheerful and optmistic girl. I am rather maybe a more self motivational girl. That's all.
Thank God for Barb. She has been encouraging and told me to hang tight! Thank God for Cheryl and i think in some ways, her presence makes me look extremely good and exert some pressure to Barb ;p I felt very good after talking to Cheryl that day on how to resolve the deadlock. She said: I know it's not you to take those crap, so just fight for it else quite HP. ha. I am glad to have her support and advice.
I wonder, how can all this take quite awhile? hmm a few months ler. Latest surprise. This morning i just knew there is some changes on the relocation. OK, be cool and heads up!
As for Japan trip, finally settle on the accom. hoho,i am gonna be a flying pillow for the next 2 mths... more mileage pls.. i wanna a free NA ticket! :p

Sweet
I don't understand why was I so agitated yesterday. Is there a real reason that I should be that fuming?! Silly me. Really silly. After a good sleep, I am really amazed by self on why do I get so worked out when I only heard a few statements from birdnest.
Seriously, I don't think I am great and I am really flattered by all the escalation. Not that I am good but it does show I am highly valued as what Sing said. Maybe those events which I anticipate to take place has yet to, that’s why I am so frustrated.
As I drag myself to dinner last night, Echen was very sweet. As I stepped into the house, I told her: Come, give gugu a hug. She guai guai came over! She normally tries to be funny by not listening to us. But yesterday she did! Feel so comforting while being hugged by her. Then I told her: Gugu is angry today. She then innocently asked: At work? I said: Ya. She then said: Someone scold you? I straight away burst into a fit of laughter. Haha.
What a sweet niece I have! Kekeke. Though there are still uncertainties, I was reminded by God that I got to be still and trust that His grace is sufficient for me when I am weak! I have to keep reminding self that His will to be done, but also hope that it is also of my favour ;p

National Day Weekend
Since I came in around 7.30am today, not sure why my back is aching?! Let me try to take a break here. Again?! Ha. Ya.
The recent trip was relaxing and more importantly it was with good companion! Queen told me not to stress too much as they have no must see and must eat. So we will just go and explore!
True enough, I really salute myself. I myself can’t even confirm the exit, how would they! Ha. Well, as QY said, even if we take the wrong road, no one will know except me. Haha. Very true. I actually wanted to sleep during the journey but I couldn’t. thanks to walkie talkie, we actually ‘talked’ to strangers at the custom, we overheard and responded to their conversation! Kekeke.
The short stay @ humble nest was good, I thought. At least we all had some exchanges with papaNg. Kekek. Let him talk about his good old days stories. Keke. There were queries around the family portrait. QY said mamaNg looked like a PM’s wife. Hehe. Thank God for His blessings, it is all about His grace and mercies!! Nothing that man can boast about. Mikey said the noodles is nice, we rolled our eyes since we are not expert in noodles. Kekek.
It’s stunning that the Tg Piai Resort concierge people actually allowed the unauthorized guest to continue to stay!! We were supposed to get that unit! Well, after some negotiation, we got 2 rooms. Ha. Gentle yet strong breeze. How nice! You can see second link from the resort! Mikey still brought binocular along. *salute* haha.
The seafood wasn’t great. Well, Wong said it’s highly recommended in the web. Well, it’s really SO-SO only. Ha. C’mon, as local, I have higher expectation! The Twister game was funny!!! The morale of the game is: You’d better exercise more often, stretch your muscle every now and then! Kekeke. It tests your reflex! Everyone had fun, lots of laughter! And lots of photos taken! Little Eunice just stayed around and behaved very well!
We had fried noodles and crab fried rice for the breakfast then we headed for the mangrove walk in search of the southern most of the main land asia. Ha. Even though Eunice was koon-ing, Wongs still bothered to bring her along. And here we go, we visited the national park. there were quite a few surrounding monkeys and we were afraid of them, thinking that they might attack us. Kekek. Not coward ok, just want to be cautious! We jollily posing for photos under the big hot sun! that’s why we’ve got headaches lo.
Fruits for lunch! The folks were very keen to have a durian feast. I just sat aside and watched them eat. Ha. I am not too keen since headache plus really not in the mood of durian-ing. Hehe. Queen went to pluck pu-to-san (something similar to Rambutan), uncleYao went to cut out a dragon fruit, and auntieMeng served us with pineapples! Kekeke. I can tell they had a good time eating the fruits. Loi-s were too full to have lunch!! We headed home after the ahHui fishball noodles and bought some breads home!
In short, it is a simple yet lovely and heartwarming outing. I am unsure when the next group outing be but I definitely thank God for this! Seize the day!
Time flies and people grow. It is inevitable that we hang around with different people, that’s life. Isn’t it? Was using the term, ex-GF to Jess when I told her about our trip. It sounds weird and sad. OK, time to move on :) God has made things beautiful in His time and of our best interest!

If I could reach, higher
一直都觉得青奥没什么大不了，它提倡的oh yeah 和give way 倒是很刻骨铭心，街头巷尾都在谈论着它。若不让路，得被罚SGD130！真是的！一直呼吁大家要成为一个优雅社会，做个称职的东道主；难道你觉得大家的优雅水平不堪入眼，要一直不断地通过各大媒体疲劳轰炸？可笑。呵呵。
第一次到浮动舞台，感觉还不错。27000人，面向着MBS，一眼望去是滨海湾，CBD的skyline挺漂亮的，微风徐徐，现场打着璀璨的灯火，不错啊！
采用集装箱和蓄水池的舞台设计概念挺不错的，尤其是当表演者卖力的演出，配上绚丽的服饰，还OK！基本上我对YOG的文艺表演没什么期待，因为小红点是个小国，也无非常突出鲜明的文化色彩，与邻国相近。搞笑的是，由于是彩排，我们有幸见到‘假’总统、‘假’IOC主席。哈。不过张准将aka TCH出现了！
当国旗逐渐升起和在空中飘扬时，感觉怪怪的。那天，NDP时我有点不知所措。呵呵。
最后，当他们彩排欢迎各国的健儿们时，我听到了1996年的奥运主题曲 Reach，好怀念啊。有点像我现在的写照。呵呵。

Some dreams live on in time forever
Those dreams, you want with all your heart
And I'll do whatever it takes
And I'll do whatever it takes
Follow through with the promise I made
Put it all on the line
What I hoped for at last would be mine
If I could reach, higher
If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment in my life
I'm gonna be stronger
I'm gonna be stronger
Know that I've tried my very best
I'd put my spirit to the test
If I could reach
Some days are meant to be remembered
Some days are meant to be remembered
Those days we rise above the stars
So I'll go the distance this time
So I'll go the distance this time
Seeing more the higher I climb
That the more I believe
All the more that this dream will be mine
If I could reach, higher
If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that me moment in my life
I'm gonna be stronger
I'm gonna be stronger
Know that I've tried my very best
I'd put my spirit to the test
If I could reach
If I could reach, higher
If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment in my life I'm gonna be stronger
I'm gonna be so much stronger yes I am
I put my spirit to the test
If I could reach, higher
If I could reach, higher
If I could, if I could
If I could reach
Reach, I'd reach, I'd reach
I'd reach, I'd reach so much higher
I'd reach, I'd reach so much higher
Be stronger.

Musical Chair
It's like musical chair. we take turns to switch places and sometimes it just caught everyone in surprises!!
The latest surprise is uncle Kuu will be coming over! hehe.. back in many years ago, i spotted uncle Kuu and kind of admire him. then i saw him at the pool pretty often.. then we work in the same platform and now we are at the same floor and he is joinng printer WS in Nov!!
I applaud the quick decision they made, really shocked us! imagine last Friday they still bother to get iphone girl to come again and who knows, the next moment they prefer an internal transfer and that person is uncle kuu!! hoho. the 闪电announcement also shocked everyone! Ha.
i think birdnest may not have think too thoroughly on this decision. I can guarantee that he is much more 难搞 than me! kekek. He is so vocal and he grumbles alot. at least that is true since most of us observe that. How is mr birdnest and ladygaga going to 打压 him ler? i really have no idea and i don't really bother too much.
After all, people movement are pretty common.
hoho, there is this guy who joined back BPD recently. while i was taking the water just now, i overheard his conversation with TQ. hmm he said he was on 3yr missionary work in vietnam. wowowo. Not many will mention the word' mission' if it is not Christianity centric. OK, i shall find one opportunity to talk to him.
3 yrs ler... quit the job and serve God. Can I do it or rather WILL i do it? hmmm...

忆卢美玉安娣
因着南大团契的缘故，我有机会认识您和南国安哥。记得当年的校友日，您滔滔不绝的与我们分享当年您们在南大校园的点滴，更告诉我们您如何说服父亲，极力争取进入大学就读的机会！您也说每一回您和南国安哥开着jaguar到南大时，一定会到南大湖走走，毕竟当年那是许多南大声谈情说爱的好地方，但您俩不解为何现今的学生竟然不视这湖为浪漫之地。
当年，基于我是团契职员，加上大四时和当助理干事时得参与常务会议，我有不少的机会与您接触。谢谢您每次都邀请我们到您的家中，让我们这群学生领袖享美食，在舒适的环境中开会，在超大的pent house 空中花园看风景，那可是事奉的incentive之一哦！还记得每次常务会议都很期待您的出现，因为您都会带一些很可口的点心替我们解闷。呵呵。依稀记得有一年，因着怡兴安哥决定退下不当主席，您在无人愿意站出来时却挺身而出；每每FES遇到财务危机，您都会说包在我身上，让我去打电话和写信呼吁人奉献。那种作风，的确不常见！
您在FES，南大校园、校友、和中国人事工的参与和付出是我们学习的榜样。您没有因着富裕的背景，而忘了其他人。您因着一个爱上帝的心去爱您所认识和甚至不相识的人，就如您的宝贝所说，大家都看到您一生的果效、见证和劳苦。
上周末接到你安息的时候，觉得很感伤。昨晚，当南国安哥亲自带我去瞻仰您的遗容时，问我多久没见你了，当时的我真的有点受宠若惊。想了想，大概一年多了吧。最后一次见你是应该是在2009年南大校友团契常年会议时，尽管您的身体欠佳，您还是与夫婿一起出席；当时真叫我为自己这批新南大生感到惭愧。当我们靠近您的棺木时，南国安哥还开欢笑的告诉我您到离世前还如此的胖，没有瘦下来，我真的不知该如何回应。只能静静的在那儿看您最后一眼，思念您。谢谢您与南国安哥一直以来的关爱和善工！
再见了，美玉安娣！
