Replace it, brace it, face it

Finally it has been confirmed. After 6 mths of bloodshed n tears... hahaha... no, i am just kidding.. no tears and no bloodshed of cos. what i can really say is, time flies! its been 6 mths aldy n i am still quite ok, its been the longest i've ever stayed in 1 job, not bad huh?

Not having the best of luck or mood recently, what's gone wrong man? But i do know, whatever it is, no matter how bad it can be, everything and anything, will pass. don't dwell too much over it, reflect upon it, learn the lesson n move on.

Remember, It Will Pass. And when it did, you will only become stronger.

Another song from J.Mraz. Really love the optimistic nature of his songs, simply the best:

Details in the Fabric
Jason Mraz

Calm down
Deep breaths
And get yourself dressed instead
Of running around
And pulling all your threads and
Breaking yourself up

If it's a broken part, replace it
But, if it's a broken arm then brace it
If it's a broken heart then face it

And hold your own
Know your name
And go your own way
Hold your own
Know your own name
And go your own way

And everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
mmmhmm

Hang on
Help is on the way
Stay strong
I'm doing everything

Hold your own
Know your name
And go your own way
Hold your own
Know your name
And go your own way

And everything, everything will be fine
Everything

Are the details in the fabric
Are the things that make you panic
Are your thoughts results of static cling?

Are the things that make you blow
Hell, no reason, go on and scream
If you're shocked it's just the fault
Of faulty manufacturing.

Yeah everything will be fine
Everything in no time at all
Everything

Hold your own
And know your name
And go your own way

Are the details in the fabric (Hold your own, know your name)
Are the things that make you panic
Are your thoughts results of static cling? (Go your own way)

Are the details in the fabric (Hold your own, know your name)
Are the things that make you panic (Go your own way)
Is it Mother Nature's sewing machine?

Are the things that make you blow (Hold your own, know your name)
Hell no reason go on and scream
If you’re shocked it's just the fault (Go your own way)
Of faulty manufacturing

Everything will be fine
Everything in no time at all
Hearts will hold




For those who r feeling despair, disappointed, demoralized or too overly stressed out. =)

43 already...

She is 43 years old. Middle age for a lady but definitely young for a country.

I can still recall when i was a kid, the national day is always a day i am looking forward to. I tot it was a day the nation should come together and celebrate its achievements. The family would fly the flag out in the early Aug n so do many other families n u can see many sg flags flying ard during tat special period. I feel proud to be called a sporean.

However, things changed. this year you can hardly see a block of flat with a sea of flags.. there are not much of the so-called national day atmosphere n the ppl in sg are looming in unhappiness of the inflation, no increase of salaries and numerous fare hike. Yes, i think many are unhappy n yes, my family wouldn't even bother about the flag. we havent been flying the flag for at least 5 years now n all i ever thought of everyday is how to get out of this country.

Sad isn't it? every morn when i make my way to the bus stop, i could hear the pri sch playing the national anthem n rehearsing themselves for the ndp performance. i can recall the passion n loyalty i had when i was younger. having attended the actual NDP for 3 times and numerous times of previews and reheasals, i really liked being part of the big parade back then. it is a country i am talking about, i realised i still love singapore but y am i hating it? Don't get me wrong, i love this country but tat doesnt mean i cannot whine over it.. i support this country doesnt mean i support all the policies tat were passed. it is a country that all sporeans built together n no party n of cos not a single person can hold on to tat credit and claim everything in sg shld run the way they/he want it to be ran.

Sg is a country, don't run it like a freaking corporation. although it aldy is... n we all are just merely employees that reports to particular management who took our $$ away and make investments. success and the credit is theirs, failed n the money that was ours is not ours anymore.

SG has become a paradise for the rich and not a good place for the middle class n the poor. N we can only continue to be eaten n bullied till....... maybe eternity???


Happy Birthday Singapore.

26.

It is a number that doesn't matter in my life until today. It is a number that marks the beginning of what i consider, old. and i know, life will be a little bit different starting from now on. i am now into the real adult working world. i feel tired of many things in life that i used to care so much about. i am getting old and my body starts to make some noises aldy.

I wanna thank frenz who still remember this day of mine. even for those whom i havent been contacting for quite awhile. u havent forgotten me, thank god! i am so sorry i havent been keeping in touch much, as i've become hmmm... how should i say... a little bit too tired of everything. maybe sometimes i rather be alone? i'm so sorry my dear frenz... though i may not have been contacting you all constantly, i still keep u all in my heart some how... somewhere, somehow, there is a place for everyone who walked into my life b4.

Thanks my dear frenz for the gifts, cards, jellies and well wishes... esp the ipod touch which i'm still struggling with. thanks for the treat from colleagues n the beer cake card.. haha... Thanks!

It really is a quiet bday which i didnt get a single cake or a birthday song! This i certainly wont mind, i am slowly working towards not celebrating my bday at all... i am not going to treat it like it is any special day or what.. but it is certainly a day that makes me realise that i still stay in the heart of many frenz ard me, and that alone is more than enough.

I am back! AGAIN!

Haha... i havent been updating this blog for quite awhile again! really, i dun see y would i have anything interesting to write about. life is pretty much BORING. work is boring, really. n i dun wan to keep whining on my blog, which is something i've been doing a lot recently.

Feeling kinda tired as usual. As everyone noes the month of aug is usually quite a hectic 1 for me... n maybe over so many years, i have really changed quite a lot.

Anyway, tat aside. So far i am ok. been thru my convo, which is something i am not very looking forward to actually. hahaha... ya, its very impt though. cos it marks the end of my HELL! hope i wont get to experience tat kind of feeing that u r a 2nd class (or even 3rd class) citizen of a freaking sch. yes, to tell the truth, i actually hated my uni life quite a lot.. 3 1/2 years. ok, 3 years actually cos my last sem is thankfully spent in a much better place with much much more better ppl. No, Diane, Serene and Ziwei n of cos some other better frenz in the sch, u all are great. i just meant some others who are not that great ppl, i dun blame them as well, maybe we are just different breeds of ppl thats all.

On to work. Work is OK, boring but OK. i am still learning actually, there are some obstacles i met and i am still trying to overcome them. n i guess only thru experience and setbacks that i can grow n become better. its ok, i noe i will get there!

Thanks everyone for the flowers, the cute forever friends bear and the cert! =)
