2nd July 2007

after 3 months of waiting... EY finally got back to me on the date of commencement for work!... They have set it to be on the 2nd July. They also wanted me to fill in some particular regarding my passport number and those sorta particulars.. which just means dat we are going to have an overseas orientation !!!! yippieee.... lalalala... haha but destination has yet to be confirmed... =p

jolly Day!

went out with the 2 babes.... and we had such a jolly time... hahahhaa the trip to k1's house was enough to kill..... imagine us being on the road for more den ONE hr...???? and seriously we were travelling at a speed of no more den 10km/h....... the signs read "Massive Jam" hahaahaa

k1 was megally grumpy when we reached, cuz we were a WHOLE hour late... we arrived at HV at ard 5ish.... wanted to do dinner but decided dat since we were both fat...... *noticed i excluded our driver seph...* decided to just have a cup of LB and share the Elmer Fudge.... May as usual was brilliant in her words.. commenting on her talents for "fatcom" and kinda... and since we rt both so poor... we have decided to commit ourselves into writing one.. and just using both of us as the actor/actress... since we are the only peeps in our clique who are of THAT size.. lol lol.....

decided to play pool at Park Lane Mall *and not Park Mall as wat seph had said*.. and guess who was the winner... ?? haha the one who was commenting dat she cant play.. KmL!!!


KML in her most demure form! kekekek


the Ks doing their trade markies!!! Chubby Cheeks


Seph said i look horny here.. lol


The gals getting it on at the pool table!

Genius of the Day: KaungMalay

I really think KML is a genius at work!!! We were just chatting about our usual fat selves, and how rich we will be if fat suits were in and people wld be demanding out good-quality fats..... and then she said "Brb, i wanna make a cup of coffee," and seconds later she was bad, saying "Back, u must have know by now that my desk is really close to the pantry rite?"

"Good for u den, easier access to the pantry"

"Yes its good for me, but bad for my slimmer inner self"


And she said this some time back

"When u complained dat u are bored, its not cuz u wanna be nored, its because u wanna complain about being bored.

Thats the whole point of being bored, having the pleasure of being bored"


Brilliant, wasnt it? muahaah

向日葵

总以为向日葵是阳光的象征，生命的写照。每一天，它总是迷人的开放着，吸收着大自然的美好。你对它看一看，它对你笑一笑。蜜蜂们正在勤快的采蜂蜜，向日葵也很配合它们的一举一动。。。。 它高高的竖立着，骄傲的盎然着朝气蓬勃的高姿态。。。。。
但想了一想，它是多么的悲惨。 它根本不能够随心所欲，自由的散发出独特的香味。。。。它不能在深夜里，静静的享受月光，它也不由自主，不能认定自己的梦想，只是由着太阳，被动的跟着。。。。。。。
它只不过是一个可怜的傀儡。。。。。。。

taihen!!!!

sighz....

my n95 camera is not working !!!!!!

going to send it for repairs tml!

Nokia is going to get it from me big time!

叶子 阿桑

叶子是不会飞翔的翅膀
翅膀是落在天上的叶子
天堂原来应该不是妄想
只是我早已经遗忘
当初怎么开始飞翔
孤单是一个人的狂欢
狂欢是一群人的孤单
爱情原来的开始是陪伴
但我也渐渐地遗忘
当时是怎样有人陪伴
我一个人吃饭旅行到处走走停停
也一个人看书写信自己对话谈心
只是心又飘到了哪里
就连自己看也看不清
我想我不仅仅是失去你



叶子，让你联想到什么？是美丽的回忆，沧桑的见证，忧愁的代表，又或者是无趣的规律？

KeukenHof

Up until today, I have no idea what does keukenhof means? It just means "Garden of Europe" literally and was the brainchild of the then mayor of Lisse, a little town near South Holland in 1949. It allowed the growers from Europe to display their hybrids and has since grown into the world's largest flower exhibition.

"Auntie" Ilin took a short trip to Amsterdam and came back with some amazing photos!!!! It kinda reminds me of the Floraide in Canberra only that Floraide was of a much smaller scale.


Amazing Pics of the nicest flowerbeds in the world!!! ＊Courtesy of Ilin*














The pictures of the hanas looks almost fake!!!! lol







My Favourite flower: white tulips!!!!




Whats Holland without its windmills? and mind u, this one looks really rustic!!!

Happy!!!

A plesant surprise awaited me when i got back last nite, had supper with dan at 85, and we had so much satays!!!!! hahahaa. Mummy called me into the room, and i was thinking "oh oh..... is she menopausing again?" But to my surprise, she seems to be in one of her most cheerful mood.

"Ur daddy has decided to let me use N95; but i dunno how to use it, den how?"

"Lemme have it!!!"

"You very smart hor, always doing this, psycho ur dad to get something dat he wldnt know how to use himself, den he can pass it to u"

"hehehe, i did now do or say anything lor..." *evil grin*

And there u have it, my dream fone... for now at least.. kekekeek


Pics of my beloved new fone.. hiakz hiakz

彩虹天堂

人人都向往着彩虹天堂，但是到底什么才是彩虹天堂呢？是不是一个能用爱触摸着忧伤的地方？ 还是一个能让人相守到白发苍苍的地方？又或者是一个能让人能够自由自在飞翔着的地方？ 往往，我们都试图很努力地寻找，可是怎样也找不着。

有或者是一个没有任何期望，失望的地方？

只希望自己能找到属于自己的彩虹，那怕没有天堂也好...

The Rose

Cant seem to get over Ken Hirai's version of the "The Rose"; he has such a voice that really touches deep within you, something where you will be like "WOW" after hearing it.... has been a pretty comforting lullaby in these nights of insomnia...
Here goes the lyrcis... :


Some say love it is a river
that drowns the tender reed
Some say love it is a razor
that leaves your soul to bleed

Some say love it is a hunger
an endless aching need
I say love it is a flower
and you it's only seed

It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
who cannot seem to give
and the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live

When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been too long
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed
that with the sun's love
in the spring
becomes the rose

Pigging out

Had supper with the biatch just, and came back both happy and lost.

Happy;
We are planning to go on a short trip to somewhere nearby.. and mind u.. this gal has SO MUCH contacts all over the world for free and cheap accom!!!! im so jealous man!!! I guess with my curent budget, BKK is the only place dat we can go to, and together with the dirt cheap accom shes getting us, we aint getting dat much. but Adel wanted to go Bali, and stay in Ritz Carlton which costs like USD$400 a nite!?!!?!?!?!? though she said the actual rates wld be ard USD$100++.. which is still way above my budget...
And black chicken is working for moet n chandon now..... which is technically under who else but LVMH of cuz..... that just means Wee kiat can get his 30% discount... muahaaha.....


Lost:
We were pretty much discussing about life in general and how pathetic our pay was.... and we did a simple calculation.... and realised dat to achieve our dreams of buying a house/appartment (separately of cuz); it wld take at least EIGHT years that cld be materialized??? OMG.. that is disheartening...

Shes complaining about her work, but at least she has her work to fall back upon.. wat about me? i feel dat im in limbo now... not here nor there.... no career, no koibito *well guess cant complain about dat one cuz i chose it myself*, no nothing basically... =(


Oh well, just like wat serena had said "Life still goes on my dear, be strong"

Calories Counter

Was reading Vincent Ng's "Ten" yesterday; and did a few interesting calculations myself...

BASAL METABOLIC RATE

The formula goes as follow:

67 + (13.728 x weight in kg) + (508 x height in metres) - (6.9 x age) = BMR


661 + (9.636 x weight in kg) +(175.2 x height in metres) - (4.7 x age) = BMR

This just means that, even if u sit there and do NOTHING; u just burn X amount of calories.... haha comforting hey? hahaha


Then u must factor in the activity level,

If its Sedentary = 1.15
If its Light (normal, everyday ativities, = 1.3)
If its Moderate (2-3 excercises a wk, = 1.4)
If its Very active (4-5 exercises a wk, = 1.6)
If its extremely active (6-7 exercises a wk, = 1.8)

So say if Mr A has 1700 for his BMR and is a very active dude, he burns = 1700 * 1.6 = 2720 calories a day.



Now comes the really exciting part, CALORIES COUNTING

Here basically u have to calculate how much percent of ur body fat mass u wanna lose, I am assuming i want to reduce to 7% (avg for guys is 15% and i assume im at the 15% percentile)

Thus:
Target Fat Loss = (15%-7%) x Body Weight = TFL

Then u have to take TFL and multiply by 7700 calories and VOILA; there u have it... u have to lose dat amount of calories. It can be spread oveer a period of ur comfort zone.... in this book it says 10 wks....

Moi = Writer?

hahaa.. was chatting wif yum... and she was telling me that she joined this script writing classes.... 12 lessons for $280..... .. well seriously for a moment it did appeal to me... *the classes were in mandarin, which explains why.. hahaa* but.. after looking thru my bank a/c; i had to say no.. i only have 360 in it! haaha

the reason y yum wanted me to join was mainly cuz she wanted a companion... and shes supposed to write in a pair.. and knowing my character and style of writing.. she wld be more comfy with pairing up with me.. but haha... for me to be SOOO comitted to it.. its kinda impossible.... oh well...


AND... the trip planning jsut got worse.... only may and i cld confirm for the trip to clubmed, the rest cldnt.. and even if it was to BKK, most of the peeps cant make it.. which just means dat i wun get to travel before i start work proper... =(

3.5 more mths to the start of work.. cant wait

Where Shd i GO?

Yippie... mummy just told me that she will sponsor me 1k for my hols; at first she thought that it wld be sufficient to go to BOTH taiwan and clubmed... which is quite... ermm.. well impossible by itself...

Taiwan is really tempting cuz i haven been there before, and i heard from Esther the pig dat it is a great place to go with its shopping and stuff, but the thing is dat i wld have to go with ah-zhu, which is ok by itself bah; just that wun be all dat fun..

Clubmed seems to be the more.... popular choice as its cheaper for sure, and its with the Gang!!!! been like almost 2 yrs since we last travelled with the gang (or at least part of the gang) think Sydney n Hunter Valley trip in 2005!!! sighz those were the most jolly days of my uni life...

A Retreat

If you have read this entry with the hope of finding some good recommendations for some spa retreats, then perhaps u will be greatly disappointed....

Was reading ODB just, and found dat the message that the author wanted to share was really inspiring.

It was about the need to find a 'retreat' in our lives. There it shelters you from the pressures of life; it is also somewhere where u can totally rest and be yourself without the need to facade up a wall of defense. More than often, the overwhelming nature of our busy lives drown us in the unforgiving sea of hostility..... only to toughen up ur self awareness......

Just as you thought u could find solitude, a place of quiet rest when u get home.... sometimes dat aint all true at all.... Nagging for you to get this settled, that settled, and why is this piece of chore not done properly... yada yada yada... We all need our privacy dun we??

But do we really get it? i doubt it. Unless....

Dun mean to sound pious or wat; but i do feel that the only way to regain my sainty is to find a place which is near to that of HIM; restoring my soul by installing mr faith in HIM...

我们唱我们的歌

After much persuasion from Ma... I had no choice but to drag my feet to National Stadium for its finale event before its demoslished.... At first I though it was pretty much a concert, but to my horror it actually a Sing-along session... !!! The choice of songs were really very 'interesting' from “上海滩” to “爱拼才会赢” so u guys pretty much imagine how.... 'exciting' it was.. hahaha

没道德 was also there.. to my surprise.. and of cuz she refused to tell me who she came with.. lol


Moi & 没道德 *notice how disgustingly red my hair is... hahaa*

愚蠢

每次有话想要告诉你，总是心惊胆跳，不知道你会有何想法，有何反应？
如果可以把心情分化为颜色，那会是灰色，永远的灰色。

你的存在，应该是为我带来安定，就像一个避风港。
但是每次，我反而成为你的力量， 你的安全地带。
你把我的不安，当成一些无谓的不懂事。。。。
你把我的不安， 化为一些毫无意思的幼稚。

我不想再那么愚蠢，那么安分守己
一片海阔天空，是多么令人向往的。
我想要脱胎换骨，从新寻找一个属于自己的我。
我一定得振作起来，不在沉迷颓废

原来自由的天空是多么的清晰，多么毫无约束的。
原来没有你，是可以那么轻松的
回想以前的愚蠢，觉得有点伤感，
不是因为还在眷恋，只觉得非常愚昧，竟可以那么不懂事

现在的国度里，不再有你的影子，
只有我自己。。。。
虽有一点的孤独，但那是快乐的。。。。。。

〈如果没有你〉

今天去PS的时候，买了一张合辑〈国语歌曲排行总冠军〉..... 非常意外地发现了里面有一首非常棒的歌

“hey，我真的好想你，现在窗外面又开始下着雨
眼睛干干的，有想哭的心情。 不知道你现在到底在哪里？

hey， 我真的好想你, 太多的情绪，没有适当的表情，最想说的话我（应）该从哪里说起？你是否也像我一样想你？

如果没有你，没有过去，我不会有伤心， 但是有如果还是要爱你
如果没有你，我在哪里，又有什么可惜，反正一切来不及，反正没有了自己

hey，我真的好想你，不知道你现在到底在哪里。
你是否也像我一样在想你”

为什么每当我以为自己已经平复了心情，偏偏有沟起我那段美丽却又痛苦的过去呢？可能是自己太过懦弱了吧？......

但是我真的好想在见你一面，哪怕就是那么一眼，我也开心，知足。。。。。。
