"If I could have one wish granted, then God, let us be forever this way. Frozen in time"

I've always dreamed of freezing beautiful moments in order to re-visit these moments, untouched, unscratched.

Of smiles, every curve of it, showing perfect white teeth, twinkle in the eyes. Happiness in its true form.

"If I listened hard, I could hear echoes from the past"

To which sometimes I whisper back the words, every single of it, like music in my ear. Then brushing it away, as the heart grows tender.

"To remember you like this. The one who makes me happy"

It's like a blessing, it's like a curse. To be given strong memory, only to remember only the harsh moments. To forget all good things that had happened, as anger fills every inch of the heart.

"Calamity! Calamity! What chaos has entered our lives?"

I cease to think.

Sesaje...

Meja aku. Berselerak lagi. Aku nih memang malas nak ngemas meja sebab aku tau lepas tu aku kene kuarkan n hamburkan balik mas wat keje.

Tengah wat minit meeting n at the same time, update website company :p. Baru je abis tepon IT exec. mintak merge n create satu je akaun email utk tujuan meng'contact' department aku. Gambar yg aku tampal kat dinding partition tu, ialah gambar my two sweet sisters n my mom. Kalendar tu plak tgh buat balancing act atas bekas kuih yang akak opis aku ni kasi tapi sampai sekarang tak abis2 lagi coz aku 'kureng' minat kek buah.

Bekas pensel yg comel tu ialah hadiah dari kawan baik aku kat Sarawak. Manakala bekas coklat yang tak buang2 lagi tu plak, tak diketahui lagi sapa yang kasi. Tau2 atas meja aku ngan note 'To Carneyz' and lima minit kemudian, piranha2 yang lahap telah memakannya sampai la tinggal bekas je... Sadis betul riwayat coklat Ferarro Rocher tu.

Trip to Singapore

We went to Singapore yesterday afternoon, on an educational trip (yeah...). Basically, when the four of us are together, we are an educational item by ourselves. Great educational as in how to be happy at work :) OK, drop it. Hehe. Let's get on with the story.

After a hasty lunch, we all piled into the car and off we went to Changi Airport. We were busy chewing gums and filling in our White Card with the radio on. Mind you, we have a manager as our chaperon, but what the heck, he's quite young and pretty much work on the same wavelength *grin*. Chairman was entrusted to take photos for the business report after this trip.

We arrived at Changi around 2.30 pm. We met the PR Manager, who escorted us to the conference room. Changi made us cringe. It stretched on and on and everything was modern. Their presentation was impressive. That doesn't stop us from giving an equally impressive presentation ourselves. Hehe.

After the presentation, we were brought around the terminal, to duty-free shops and other sites. The Sunflower Garden was lovely. We took photos with our back to the apron side where all the planes were parked. We boarded the skytrain to go to Terminal 1. We were having fun!

Then the official visit was over and by that time, we were hungry. Once again, we piled into the car and went to Suntec City for dinner. The manager made all of us wander around the mall until he decided to have dinner at Fish & Co. I ordered Fish Platter and goodness, the meal that was spread before me! Chips & fish, and grilled prawns & fried squid, and rice. Anne even ordered ice-cream cake for dessert!

We finished everything on our plates (pan?), and the guys joked that we should spend the rest of the month in the gym, burning off the fat we accumulated today :p

Then, the best part of the err, business visit was to go to Night Safari. The entrance fee was expensive (S$24) but it was a worthwhile visit. It reminded me of the trip to the zoo, only this time it was night visit. The surrounding was made to look like a jungle. We joked, and laughed hysterically. Anne slipped and fell, and the guys laughed. Chairman took photos of animals and photos of us. By the time we got on the tram, we were so hot and exhausted. It was already 10.00 pm by then. The night air was cool, and everything was enjoyable.

When it was over,

'Can we do this again?' Everyone laughed. It felt more like a vacation than a business trip ;)

Then, before we went back, we cruised along Orchard Road and the sight was fantastic. Lights spilling all over the place, Christmas decor everywhere. We were sorry that the trip had to end.

Lastly, here's some pix that Chairman took during the visit :)

Kehidupanku sehari2

Last nite balik lambat lagi.

While photocopying some documents, I joked to Dill, the HR Exec,

'I leh dapat extra bonus lagi ke?'
'Raya bonus is the only bonus we got la...'
'We must be employee of the month!'
'Of the year...' (both erupted into laughter)
'Of the millenium!'

Reasons aku selalu balik lambat:
1. Esok banyak keje sekolah.
2. Ada meeting yg selalu abis lambat
3. Ada meeting after opis hour
4. Trivial stuffs yg kene buat selalu kena tolak ke tepi sampai dah jadi important & urgent stuff
5. Tak de bende nak buat kat rumah.

Kekadang aku rasa, alasan no. '5' tu yg menjadi alasan paling utama. Aku tak gemar tengok tv. Kalau ada rancangan best, aku tengok la. Aku terlalu penat nak buat design. Aku rasa tido awal buat badan rasa lenguh esoknya. Tak de sapa nak diajak keluar makan, jejalan, shopping. So baik aku dok opis siapkan keje. Abis citer.

Half of what I am is you.

You Are a Bright Star Soul

Like a shining star, you have no trouble being the center of attention In fact, you often feel a bit hurt when all eyes aren't on you You need to be number one in everything, no matter how trivial And it's this ego that both hurts your confidence and helps you achieve You're dramatic and a powerhouse of pure energy You possess a divine quality or uniqueness that's hard to define A natural performer, it's likely you'll become famous in some circles. Just learn not to take everyone's reaction to you so personally! Souls you are most compatible with: Newborn Soul and Prophet Soul

What Kind of Soul Are You?

'Number 1 in everything' - a.k.a. competitive.

... Yeah right. I'd rather shove my projects to someone else right now. But for today, looking forward to Singapore trip with the rest! :)
