on a personal note....
dad got me a new fone -- LG KU990R Viewty.
and he got it in PINK colour.
omg.
It can join in the happy family with the other furnitures in the room and camouflage.
it's really tough to use.
i feel completely retarded when i tried replying to Sz's/Gary's sms and couldnt find the "send" button and ended up calling them with the office phone.
perhaps i'm yet smart enough for the smart phone.
Lol.
Month of June is ending... Month of July is coming.
Payday is coming...
which means, we should start planning for the next meetup while we are still rich at the start of the month.
*prays Collage Scraps will generate sustainable income this month too*
the basic pay at work is not just pathetic.. it's miserable.
The news that shocked the world, Michael Jackson's death...
i kinda like him, the king of pop.
his "heal the world" song never fails to touch the hearts of many.
and hopefully the same song will "heal the world" from sorrows and grief as time pass by.
R.I.P. MJ.
oh yes, my contact lens were torn when i was feeling miserably poor.
how great.
attended regular ex-co meetings in prep for the forthcoming recruitment drive.
and the failure of contacting the prez is driving me crazy.
i've exactly 3 months to prepare for that 2 months.
and i'm glad the solitary walk i've been undertaking will keep me well-prepared.
i'm glad Collage Scraps idea is working out,
so i'll know what to do with myself without you... ^^

Hahahaha.
Yep, Scraps Joy Newsletter #3 is out...
Should have sent most people already, let me know if i've left you out.
this card-making road is getting tougher with creative juices running low.
This month had been pretty well-to-do...
catered to KN's bulk order ^^
thanks dude for choosing Collage Scraps and having such faith in me to complete them in just 4 days.
Good money too before they all went to investing in better supplies/ tools.
the search for a co-owner/designer is still in progress.
stay tuned.

Drum Lessons 1
i'll prolly be still living in the weekends for the coming Monday.
because the weekends were awesome.
FRI Night/ Wee hours of SAT
we celebrated Father's Day at 2am with a D24 Durian Cake from emicakes, and KFC feast.
and yes, i slept right after the feast.
i can feel the fats
SAT
met up with the ex-co for a morning meeting @ Plaza Sing.
Shopped around for wooden pegs for recruitment drive.
and shop around Plaza Sing before deciding on how to spend the weekend.
bought a mag and his coke.
and so, i became a guinea pig for being the first drum student.
picked up some drum skills, which according to my tutor, are really basic skills (which i tend to disagree).
It's really tough to synchronise the left hand with right hand and then right hand with right leg without left hand and constantly repeat this cycle.
According to my tutor, i can repeat at most 6 sets, which i think was really bad.
hahaha.
i'm good with rolling on snare and toms though =)
we did a D.A.I song (which i cant rmb the title now) at Largo
=x
and my tutor had his concert with a repertoire of songs all at my will, before lesson.
didnt want to under-estimate so i chose all the difficult songs with the insane rolls and never-ending double pedals. =x
but well, he got his revenge too later, that explains the muscle aches that i'm having today.
that night, i dreamt of myself getting lost @ Haji Lane.
Think i saw Christopher Lee in the dream, totally random.
and seriously, WHY HIM?
*vexed*
SUN
cut my hair.
Did crafting.
living in Saturday.
Finished the durian cake.
had gastric pain.
practised the drum skills.
MON (FORESEEN)
living in the weekends.
that confidence.
that seriousness.
you in a different light.

brownies
today was busy.
If everyday could be like today, time will pass quickly.
bumped into this other temp in the office while waiting for the lift.
chatted on the way to the mrt station, and finally learnt of his name (Lewis),
this is the very first time we chatted with each other despite being in the same office for the past 3 weeks.
and oh! he's from MJ.
one year senior.
*
Brownies are the only things that made me get out of the bed these days.
cant imagine a brownies-less morning
Oh! Tiffany and Lynn will be dropping by to visit on Fri and yay, we can lunch together!
was really long ago when i last saw lynn... think it was the last kbox session with sebas they all.
finally something to look forward to.
=)
i need to shed some weight.
trying to cut carbo and transfats intakes.
but i cant do without brownies.
BROWNIES

dedication
had a conv with a friend, and i'm just overwhelmed with personal thoughts so i dropped by again.
i've been thinking about how people used the word "trust" as an excuse to get more personal freedom despite being in a relationship.
the personal freedom to go on single dates with friends of the opposite gender.
its just kinda hard to balance a relationship with a closely-knitted social life.
we can never have the best of two worlds,
there are always some sacrifices we need to make in order to receive.
Lets just not get borthered by these sacrifices, and see the sacrifices as long-term investments.
returns are uncertain, turbulences and repercussions.
but we will only let prices fall that much before we throw all out back to the market.
and we will never let the prices fall to rock-bottom before action is taken.
hence, its seemingly impossible to lose everything.
nice thought.
optimistic enough.

Land of the Lost, un-terminated
jasper and i had intended to catch Terminator today.
tough luck. they are only left with front row seats.
ended up watching "Land of the Lost" on the second row.
that explains the "un-terminated, Land of the lost" personal msg on msn.
was rather entertaining. sat next to this boy whose laughter is truly infectious.
Spoiler:
movie was summed up with many random funny bits and conjoined together to form this movie.
Seriously, we are all now in the 21st century, and the last thing we want to bring back from the past was our fascination with science fiction movies, star trek, war of the worlds, kindof. So the whole idea with a time machine in this movie is truly way off.
Other than that, i truly like the T-Rex. There's a 3D-feel to it. But well, maybe because i'm on the second row.
will recommend this movie if you are bringing a friend with an infectious laughter and who laughs at everything.
*lol*
random ramblings.
Feels good in casual wear~
Feels good to be weekend~
i'm left with 150bucks till the first (and possibly the last) payday.
and GSS is round the corner.
i'm screwed.
*lol*
colin was telling me about his monthly competitive monopoly game.
the game has a time limit of 1 hour.
wondering how possible it is to conclude the game in an hour's time.
hmm, interesting.
i need sleep.
right now.

gets crafty
gotten half a day off due to some minor contact lenses complications.
extreme dry eyes.
took it out and blindly walk to mrt station to train home.
coincidentally, ysz had half day off too.
*that slacker*
am thinking where to go shopping now.
Dont really have things to buy, just want to take a breather outside.
having a time to myself, away from work, away from cca,
maybe i should just stay home and do my crafts with Jeffrey Michael and aircon.
i've got...
1) a template to do (contact list for recruitment drive)
2) farewell cards
3) banner
4) posters
looks like i've reached a decision.

the living dead
i feel down down down...
though nothing bad has happened.
the emotional rollercoaster slides back without reaching its peak.
and i cant seem to pick myself up today.
i just couldnt cheer up today.
good things happen when you least expect them to.
the past and the present.
too many case studies, too heavy a price paid
to learn the lesson of "never setting goals to get what you want"
got some rashes due to over-drinking on sat. *sounds like a perfect reason to take leave*
not exactly over-drinking, just more than what i usually have.
just 3 pints i suppose. i cant really remember.
no hangover whatsoever.
i cant really draw a line between slack and exhausted these days.
my tempo of getting things done is getting slow.
i'm expressionless as ever. (though i wasnt really expressive to start with)
my walking pace slowed down.
i'm basically drawing energy from food and not sleep.
i actually doze off lightly while standing on the train.
i need to take leave to get my sanity.
i need to take leave to recharge my energy level.
i need to go on never-ending leave
i'm just thinking my "cant pick myself up" mentality has everything to do with "lack of sleep"
i'm exhausted/ irritable/ frustrated with everything and myself.
i'm lifelessly dragging my *not enough sleep* bag of bones and fats, walking in zombie style, expressionless and a mouth that doesnt feel like talking or smiling.
the commission is just not working on me.
i dont feel motivated.
i haven been feeling dramatically exhilarated for a month already.
i'm sorry i got dull.

Living Hell
Post Exam Activity - Living Hell.
i couldnt agree more with Man Ning's new blog post.
"feel extremely tired at doing the slightest thing"
This is bad, cuz i hadda be on the phone talking all the time.
I seldom talk during lunch these days, thats the only "rest period"
and i've been coughing.
*feel the need to take leave every now and then"
but there's always a stupid form to pen in "reasons for leave"
where i can never write "i'm sick of work"
why dont SIM-UOL/RMIT Recruitment Drive and Orientation come earlier?
*sigh*
It's getting harder to find reasons to smile these days
It's even harder to smile like you mean it.
the half-hearted smile
"Pain is inevitable but suffering is optional"
I've been trying to grill this to my head every single morning, every single time i see my reflection in the mirror, every single minute at work.
Maybe i should just tattoo the words to my arm, prolly easier to have it "imprinted" to the body than to fool the brain.
i miss school
its 2130. and i cant take it anymore.
day four of living hell.

Lovely surprise.
POST EXAM ACTIVITY - CLUB MEETING & LOVELY SURPRISE
OMG
they say rare things happen once in a blue moon.
i'm just thinking i might be seeing a blue sun tmr morning
cuz mr ysz has gotten a facebook a/c
totally unexpected.
and he left me a wall post which i'm now half doubting the owner of that a/c
i totally cant believe it.
he's like Man Ning - the *I'll never join the trend and get a FB a/c"
and he just suddenly join FB.
okay maybe this is an inside joke... u just spend 30seconds reading it and wondering why you should be equally surprised.
anyway, just wondering how long his fb a/c will last before it vanishes like his friendster a/c
but again, that was a lovely surprise to the otherwise dull night.
^^
met up with Jarren, KahNing, Weisi over dinner @ bugis to discuss about the club.
turned out to be totally hilarious.
i'm looking forward to our next meeting ^^
oh yah, happened to see Huiyan @ bugis too with next block neighbour Heem Mei.
Coincidences.
economy must have been bad.
there arent many good temp/ holiday jobs around.
hope i can find something decent for Shane buddy.
now i need sleep.

POST EXAM ACTIVITY - Misplaced my armour and Lost competitiveness
POST EXAM ACTIVITY - Misplaced my armour and Lost competitiveness
huge discovery today.
she lost her competitive self to the slack school life.
she didnt cared for the commission anymore.
she didnt cared if she has any sales projections.
she didnt cared if she makes money for her mentor.
she wished that she would be fired like tmr when today's only her first day of work.
whatever happened to her "i love sales job, commission motivates me" talk?
today i misplaced my armour
i cant find it.
i want it back.
cuz its dear.
cuz its essential
cuz its necessary.
cuz i cant do without it.
pat is really sweet.
he asked about my first day at work.
i guess i gave him a shock with my "i wanna cry" answer
then he...
---> Huh? what happened?
---> They bully you?
---> Aiyah its always like that when u go work
---> no matter how stupid and crappy they are, u still have to listen to them
---> chill man, handle it slowly ya. it's just your first day...
pat is really nice.
i'll find my armour by tmr.
