met the sweetest couple on earth today. spent a lovely day with them. and im missing them already!!! they invited me and my partner to their wedding next april. and travel in south america for months (yes months)!  so my plan for now is to save enough money for the trip to chile next april.  get a partner to go with me. and quit my job in order to make the trip happen. gotta settle all these in 9 months. possible bah?  am so happy to meet eileen and david again. they're the nicest and sweetest couple i have ever met. very passionate in everything they do. very thoughtful and helpful. enjoyed having dinner with them. had so much fun making quiche and muffin together. trying hard to get on t-bar. snowboard down knoll ridge. and i still remember eileen's super excited reaction after david proposed to her at crater lake.  i wanna be part of their wedding. and so i have to start saving now. 

 something for the stressful fren   this is juvenile humour according to him :P stop being emo. it doesnt suit you 

  full of adventures ahead   sometimes tranquil you wont know what surprises you'll get along the journey   no matter what, it's great to have a companion who shares the same interest who speaks the same language who appreciates who you are looking forward to more surprises =)

很多事情没有对错。感觉对了，就任性一次吧。 为自己的梦想勇敢一回，哪怕受伤，至少曾经努力。就算失败，也要知道答案。 不喜欢模棱两可，似有非无的感觉。所以就勇敢下去吧！ 信念很重要。要相信，一切会成真。  

就这样一年过去了。曾经为自己筑梦，一个很美丽的梦。 当美丽的泡泡一一被戳破，如梦初醒。原来自己是那么天真。 是的，我必须承认我很天真。 一年前自以为很了不起的那件事，回想起来，其实没什么。甚至还差点把它给忘了。 时间真的可以冲淡一切。 期待新的挑战。我会更好的。

today is a good day. i made more frens. got confirmed. said what i wanna say. completed most of the work.  had some arguments with the digital guy. but i think i won, haha. and i actually had fun staying back. oh no that's not a good sign. girls talk with BFF from hk. got a reply from him at 12am. that made my day!  and yea, tomorrow will be a better day. i know it'll be =) 

back from the super dramatic trip. a good recharge though. like how i explain to everyone, the fact that i dont have to go to work for 3 days is good enough. a short break from the hectic workdays. am now back for more challenges at work and in life. will do my best. appraisal in 3 days.  preview of the trip. till im free and not too lazy to blog about the trip, lol.    my first shot with lake toba. i quite like the kampungs around simple yet lots to discover   no sunrise. hence camwhore time we're young n energetic, yes we are!   right after this SOS shot. we really needed SOS too bad no one was able to help. we gotta settle it on our own am glad that we survived   my cutest pose as of now. lol i really really think I AM CUTE =)   it's so good to cycle again i miss nz. i miss cycling

will be away for 4 days. the long awaited holiday. since i started working, 2 months is like 2 years man. haha!  busy settling the undone business. send follow up emails. farewell for kyra. oh and got to know that i'll have my appraisal after the holiday. how awesome it can be. just hope there'll be no drama when im back to work next week.   a lot of colleagues are leaving. lunch gang is getting smaller. who will be the next to leave? hmm... luckily the eye candy is still here =)    everyday is a new day stay positive. be strong

everyone laughed at me when i said ben is the most good looking guy in the company. manager said she'll intro more leng zai to me. the rest kept laughing and making fun of how i should date him. what's wrong with ben? he's not super leng zai but he's the nicest guy in the company. he'll ask me for lunch everyday. ask about how im coping with work. reminds me to rest. really mr nice guy. so he's my top 1!  my second leng zai candidate left the company! and i got to know about it through the who's-the-top 5-leng-zai Q&A session for newbies. like why so sudden? but why he left? we still whatsapp each other 2 weeks ago. but he didnt mention a thing. erm i thought we're friends. should at least inform la. anyway dont think i'll ever get any text from him... girl friend is dating a guy. an ordinary guy (to me). not to say he's not good but i always thought she deserves a better person. someone more brilliant. more good looking. someone with ...

 this is the second time i get advice to move overseas.  first time was from the very famous chinese temple in HK.  second time at tarot reading. guess it's time, lol.  i  am still young. thank god. shall really work things out. do what i love.  live the life i have imagined. have more courage to take risk.  share my passion with the world.  i am who i want to be. 

我有很多同事。但大部分的都很奇怪。 长得斯斯文文，白白净净，但不爱刮胡子。很有艺术家精神。但有时候太冷酷，真搞不懂他在想什么。 头大身小的代表非他莫属。他也是公司里的大坏人。你说坏人，全公司的人一定马上想到他的大头。最近他怪怪的，一直找我讲废话。我一定要远离他。我不想和怪人为伍。 在公司里最危险的转角总是遇到最串的女同事。从来不露出微笑。永远一副女王的模样。那该死的转角，为何我一直遇到他？ 对下属破口大骂，对其他人却超级温柔的双面人。对男同事更是非常友善。面目可憎啊！ 朋友说我一直嫌同事奇怪，他们也一定在背后讨论公司里来了个奇怪的品种。走路不好好走，常常在狂奔，还差点撞到人。常恐吓要拆别人的车轮。在别人的车留字条说其他人的坏话。到处问巧克力饼干的好朋友是谁。也许吧。在同事眼中，我也是个奇怪的同事。 哈哈！

  oh yea. i have put on my ski pants and jacket. n shades n my burton snowboard. lets go riding!

星座真的很准。话说我这个星期会因为沟通不良而得罪身边的人。果然在这个星期结束前就得罪了两个朋友。唉，都怪我祸从口出，做什么都太冲动。真的很对不起。 其实水瓶座就是这样的。请别怪我。朋友，不要不理我啦！ 专家说的： 討厭下雨天 喜歡自由，不受拘束 有什麼說什麼 討厭麻煩 相信第六感 喜歡觀察生活 愛上一個人會很容易陷入癡迷 討厭欺騙 很愛幻想 很在乎別人的態度 敏感 朋友很重要 懶惰 沒主見 容易受傷 感性

  不管是迷信还是心理作用 求到上上签让我心理上轻松不少 暂时放下烦恼，继续为生活拼搏 相信明天会更好 相信一切付出会有回报 相信顺其自然 相信我会很好的

got an inspiring reply from concept director. i totally didnt expect that. everyone said i was rude. but he doesnt think so. he was happy that i sent that email. it shows im eager to know the rationale behind the concept. yay am so proud with my courage. and my sense of responsibility.  way to go, luyi! 

disclaimer: this is a boring post. i just wanna record what happened today, i think it deserves a post in my journal.  first thing when i reached office. was shocked to see shawn at the lift. he didnt know about the internal meeting today, whereas i knew about it last nite and it's none of my business. as expected, he kena kau kau from the boss.  manager went out for meeting. leaving me to chase for artwork and body copy from the beloved creative team. called designer to ask about the progress, he answered: unsure. i was really panic but i know rushing him brings no difference. took a deep breath, and waited for his call.  concept director asked me to brief copywriter about my boss & slave quiz. he sounded really excited. at least better than the first time i briefed him and he told me right at my face that he disagreed with my concept. was flattered coz he offered to create cool names for each tab (something that will add value to my proposal, ...

    in short, i miss new zealand.  especially after all the drama at work i should be watching sunset at lake hood. cooking cous cous.  playing with gemma & lauren. walking to town.  drinking with jen & thomas. chatting with the german boys. why am i here now? why? 

from the 'i need more positive energy' dinner with lawyer Q on Fri. yumcha with Ruth from Raleigh singapore. to raleigh staff training on Sat. belated birthday celebration with xiao you. to girls' talk with BFF xiao yao. to homecoming lunch with munseng on Sun.  meeting different groups of frens this weekend. a weekend well spent. had so much fun with them. mere talking and eating and laughing. it reminds me how simple life can be.  work has been hectic. way too complicated to explain. i enjoy my job but sometimes it's too challenging. not to mention about pleasing bosses, colleagues, clients and who-so-ever-i-need-deal-with at work. after a long week, it's great to meet frens. good frens who understand you without needing you to say a thing. they are the only ones who appreciate your company. lame jokes. random thoughts and everything.  thanks people. really thanks. i am recharged with positive energy to deal with another should-be-pretty-hectic week. ...

  thanks BFF for the love now i know how to identify frens and best frens i am glad i have super duper awesome BFFs around me kepong gang is always the best when i really really need someone to be there just to listen to my craps just to entertain my randomness just to be with me im so so so blessed!

as pelajar terbaik pendidikan moral, i feel really bad for lying. on the other hand, i do tell a lot of white lies la. if dont tell lies, how to survive in working world, rite?  anyway, i have been living in guilt for a week. dont feel as guilty now coz the whole campaign is a lie. it's an unfair game which i ended up telling more lies to cover other ppl's lie. i just wanna confess to God that i did not do this on purpose. it's for the sake of my job. i simply need to survive and move on. i still have not passed my probation period. i need to please different parties to make my life easier in the office.  so God, please forgive me. i promise i'll do a lot of good deed to earn extra karma points. im a good girl. i am a nice girl. i am a kind girl. i really am!  thank you very much.
