picked up my blog

the last post was back in 2009.

and here i am again, picking my blog back again. simply because i'm too lazy to go set up a new blog and i feel like rattling off.

for formality's sake, i want to take the opportunity to do a stock take on the changes in my life since 2009.

• gotten my own house
• moved on to a new job
• got married
• took up driving lessons and put them on a hiatus for the time being
• changed my phone for the better and for the worse
• gotten my LV bag and wallet
• learned how to play golf
• took up a yoga membership
• learned how to apply eyeshadows and stick fake eyelashes

uh uh that's quite a lot of stuff isn't it? and i thought i lead a boring life.

then again, in many senses, boring is good - stable life and choosing the kind of excitement that i want, not having unwanted surprises.

the biggest unwanted surprise for now has to be the earthquake in Japan. it has got to be the worst calamity in decades. and how their resilience really struck us.

in my work, i need to communicate with the Japanese almost everyday. just 1-2 hours after the earthquake shook their earth on Mar 11, they told us that they are still alive with the cute (^_<) emoticon. even until now, they carry on working. how is it like, i wonder? amidst the chaos in their country and living in uncertainty, they just keep going on. it's just really admirable.

oh i forgot to insert a picture before i logged out just now.

help the animals that are also victims to the japan earthquake too!

once again

everytime when i blog after a hiatus, it'll be the same thing like, "oh i've not blogged for so long." Or "back with a vengeance sort of shit". something like that.

actually i think, i think i shall try to blog more often, really. so that i can hmmmmmm, attempt to make my ordinary life sound eventful. not that i hate being ordinary, i just sort of dislike the mundane routine that accompanies it.

after seeing some issues and observing some behaviourial patterns, i really do believe that being ordinary is a blessing. It just means that my life is generally quite ok, no big ups and downs, unless i really want to magnify them. Then again, doing that makes me feel stupid. Perhaps it's facebook's and twitter's fault. pictures are over at the former and anal "twit-bytes" <-- (hey, did i coin a new term myself?)go to the latter.

hmm, see, with just a bit of rambling here and there, a brand new blog entry is formed.

till the next time, ^w^

and oh, at the very least, i must continue to set a standard. meaning i must insert a picture.

it's been a while

since i blogged. like real.

weather's been terribly warm, it feels like 43 deg.

singnet connection is cranky recently. just like my mood at work, especially when it comes to the office pc.

been whining bitching about the pc to anyone who is forced to willing to listen at work since 23 may. and i will continue whining until the problem is solved. it's not solved until the one responsible does something instead of knowing about it and ignoring it. as usual.

to them, thank you for tolerating my endless whining.

to the marketing people from the brands that i work with, sorry that your famous brands looked thrashed on my pc.

gotta sleep. bye for now.

blogging from the library

using my iPod touch, nothing more.

testing to see how strong e wireless connection on my little toy can go, while feeling blissful surrounded by the sounds of the galilee cafe blender, light footsteps, straits times and 4 light novels.

dones.

momo!!!

tsk, balls in full glory.

talk about overexposure =X



the previously said sandwich toasting machine:



as i label this post, i chose hamsters and food. umm, not a very ideal combination, so as to say. >.<

unrelated

no coffee no talk.

next tue is gonna be mind-blowing no thanks to a certain unrealistic minion whose decisions and actions, unfortunately, affects me and this time round many many people. totally crazy but it'll be good to see what comes out of it.

i'm obsessed with a sandwich vending machine. egg and cheese is good.

picture of the day:

firefox rox, but still....

i was trying to make payment for my final theory test and failed. subsequently i realised that it was because i was using my default browser FF which is not able to support that website's payment protocol. it can only support IE.

tsk, it is most annoying that there are still web portals, especially those of non-private organisations, that do not support FF.

don't they know that FF is so much less prone to virus attacks and makes web surfing safer online? zzzzzzzzz, maybe there is something about IE and web payment technological jitters that i have no idea about. or maybe it's time to send the web support teams behind these organisations for training already. respond to the government's call for retraining already.....c'mon.

hence picture of the day:

ministry of food

i am a new MOF convert and today me and steph supported went to the mof branch at suntec city.

my food: seafood toji




steph had the tempura udon. her hands are in the "itadakimasu" pose =P


and because rice felt too heavy, i ate the toji on its own and had to order a little something extra to fill up my stomach: the daikon radish salad



both of us left the place satisfied but this time round our stomachs had no room for desserts. actually is because my stomach is still in the process of recovering from gastroxxxxx <-- cannot read doc's scribbling and not that keen to ask (=3=). if not i would have a dessert no matter how full i am.

matthew made all of us lol with his side a side b joke during lunchtime.
