Car trips in the mornings.

every morning, dad would fetch me and mum either to Tampines MRT or we will follow him to Vivo to catch the train.

Why Vivo? cause dad's working at our oh-quite-famous Sentosa. the IR that is in the midst of sand and columns. mum and me wil hop on the train there and follow the purple (North-East) line to Dhoby, where we will change to the red (North-South) line.

okies, enough explanation. boring shit.

it took me real long to get back here and blog. been kinda busy and also restrained to do such mundane and useless stuff (to the company) while at work. reaching home after work means SLEEP!

one thing that cannot change during this 6 months would definitely be my sleeping ability. i am SO deprived of sleep. seriously, waking up every day at 7 (snoozes till 7 20 usually) is a killer!

although i am getting more used to this lifestyle now, it is still a torture to wake up and bathe with my eyes close. i actually bruised myself. (walked into the door frame of the toilet) how stupid?!

anyways life has been like..a dying person's heartbeat. haha. yea, monotonous and beeping only once in a (long) while. not that i have nothing to do, but i would say that the routine 9-5 30 life is getting to me..

will i fail intern because of this?......i certainly hope not. i did not flame or scold or complain or anything did i? about the company?

actually i am contented with what i have, as in internship. never am i contented with what i have..haha..materialistic me eh?

anyways, i only have one goal for this internship! my brand new Macbook White! i am going to snag that gizmo when the price is cheapest! IT fair is here soon!

IT IT IT IT IT IT..everything around me is IT! IT news, IT business, IT developments. tsk tsk. i might come to hat it one day.

also, i got myself an iPhone! or rather, i owe my dad for it. i was using the original US iPhone (i won't get caught will i?) but i recently got the white one! woots!

kkz. short one here. got more stuff to share tmr. some really stupid stuff i came across online from a friend.

kudos to all in this economy! all hail the almighty $$$$$$!!

First Friday Fortnight Fhing

haha. im just bent on making all four words start with "f".

before internship started, the "chestnuts" (our hangout, chill, talk rubbish and good pals bunch) decided to have a fortnight meeting every friday so as to perk ourselves and have something to look forward too, or so that's what i think? haha.

Yesterday was the first! and we had it going well. everyone was happy to see one another, share our first week experiences and happenings. Jared's one was hilarious, i mean really hilarious.

fish&co was our menu for dinner and we all ate till out stomachs showed. is this considered exaggeration? but mine did show anyways, might be due to the fact that i'm too thin at the width ..dots..

as usual, we wondered the streets of dhoby ghuat, somerset and orchard aimlessly. luckily, we chose to chill at Cine's (cineleisure) Xin Wang Cafe (a hong kong cafe that serve HUGE toats). we ordered more food despite the lingering food within from fish&co. i loved my "yuan yang/ying yong (spelled by them)" or it's simply coffee + tea. i ordered my all-time fav: kaya butter toast. one word: BIG

the whole night was filled with chattering and laughing, how free eh? but we all know it only happens fortnightly on that friday which will come soon..

how not to look forward to it right? furthermore, i can't swim anymore..random..sigh..

"the male chicken. isn't that rooster? simply call it cock. isn't cock, cockerel? aiya, cock can already la." a gist of what we talk at work? haha.

Internship: Introduction day

First day at work! it was a total new experience for me because...i've been put into the editorial team for ZDNet Asia. Amazing isn't it?

Well, i've always hoped for a marketing position or related stuff, but i'm finding fun at my current work place. I have a really fun and liberal team. No stress, ok la, a bit stress here and there when you need to come up with story ideas and such.

what else can i ask for? thanks Ms Tan!

31st floor dream.

it was amazing to see such a residency exists in Singapore. it must have been a hotel plan gone wrong. definitely.

how can a condo be built to resemble a hotel that much. although the small units are really tiny as compared to others, but the amenities there are whoopy superb. with a private resort on the 7th floor, a Sky terrace and clubhouse on the 31st floor, it is everything one can ask for.

do i sound like i'm marketing it? wth.

Internship. NYDC. Sentosa. fortunately not Discovery Centre.

many things have happened along the weeks since the last post. my internship briefing, hangout after that, sentosa outing and the mid-night movie.

well, intern would start soon, like the 13 of April. in a week time and i'll be stuck with a routine daily 9 - 5.30 job. how fun is that?! however, i do like my workplace, not sure about the company but Centrepoint is a rather good place. CBS interactive is where i'll be going to. i am quite happy to be posted there, furthermore it is a tech-savvy company. can't wait for all the gadgets and stuff to come.

the group of us went out after the briefing for some chill and makan session. it was funny, stupid and really entertaining. imagine touring the market place in Paragon?! we were all addicted to the meat and cheese section. Salmon! haha.

my favourite that day was Da Paola Gastronoma. that place was awesome. the desserts were tempting me so much, but the price just kept me at bay. the pizza even made us devise a 'fool-proof' plan to steal some pieces of it......

we went to chill at NYDC after that too. it was the funniest part of the day. stupid quotes were thrown here and there. my slice of tiramisu mudpie topped it all off. pure satisfaction i would say.

then, on 30th March, it was the long awaited Sentosa day! and dear Celia even came up with the schedule and plan for the entire day. how amazing and suited for her industry?! i shall talk about it in another post. since i have photos to post too. overall, it was tiring but the fun-est day this year, up to now. haha.

as for the discovery centre, i thank whoever, whatever that allowed me to skip the chance to travel to Jurong. so luckily, Discovery Centre would not be added into the 'places-i've-been-to-this -year' list. long story there too. haha. another time.

anyways, Happy April Fools!

"i enjoyed him when i was in year 2 already." does it sound weird to you? especially from another guy.

The old-school games.

i am a The Sims fan! however, i did not invest much in the Sims 2 because i felt that it wasn't really worth it? furthermore, it was so expensive.


i bought it early, which resulted in a higher price as compared to a later date. to speak the truth i have not enjoyed a proper game of my Sims 2 yet. blame it on a poor computer that i have. my laptop can host the game, but some incompatibility with the operating system seems to cock up the whole game.

sigh.

Sims 3 is coming out, so i will just have to wait for it. I am really going to wait for the price to drop this time. anyways i will be busy with my intern and school stuff as well.

i feel so satisfied typing away on my iMac. talk bout craziness? i am just happy and really satisfied. although i still want my MacBook?! haha.

tomorrow will be another rolly-polly day at the music school.

nights in advance to all.
