WATEVER~! I think i am such a STONE, i dun feel moved.. i kinda feel tat no matter how many yrs he waited i will still not take a 2nd look at him.. i dunno why i feel this way.. those who treat me in a special way *such as ivan, saporo, ET etc* i dun take a second look or even consider to start a r/s.. yet i fell deeply for those who hack care me, like JK and HIM.. i can say tat HE hurt me badly.. i dun even want to think abt starting a r/s now.. I know alot of guys care for me and will def want me if i want them.. but then i dun play with feelings, this is my principle in life, and i am sticking FIRMLY to it..

Friday 21 Jan 2005
First day of unemployment.. went kbox with lian and terrence for a prelude to our bday celebration.. head to PS KFC for "afternoon hi-tea".. they wanted me to choose my bday present but i dun like to waste people's $$ or demand for things I like.. so many people told me they found it hard to find me a suitable bday gift.. kept asking me wat i need/lack.. i really dunno.. i think i am satisfied with everything i have now.. so i demand nothing.. perhaps lacking a happy job and a caring bf.. who can buy me tat? *kekez*.. then they took me to fu lu shou bldg wanting to get me a suitable crystal *those tat they say can have magical power if u wear correctly* but b4 that gotta take a kinda pic that will reflect ur current "spiritual state".. confused me.. well nvm.. so it says tat my gastric is poor, my arms r tired and my legs are weak.. i am a happy person *issit??* i am a fun-loving and innocent child at heart, i have many friends *quite true* and i am a pleasure to be around.. my current situation is abit awkward, will be pretty stressed at the current moment but my future looks bright and cheery.. it rounds off by saying i can wear a green cystal chain or a pink crystal bracelet on the right wrist.. couldnt find a suitable crystal, *all too EX lar~! dun want to waste their $$* we were at tat area for 2-3 hrs and finally settled on a 7-eye tian zhu which cost only $12.. but i like it sia~!! Lian is abit upset as she couldnt get me a good crystal but happy when i told her i really like the tian zhu! nevertheless, they bot me dinner at this little thai restaurant Tinun in Bugis Junction.. it was YUMMY!! the day din end there, sis&bf, dad&mum were at PS picking up kaka afterwork.. i called them and they happen to be leaving PS so dad wanted sis to make a detour to pick me up :) *blissful* 4 people crammed at the backseat but happi :) we went up to kaka's place, deliver the oto foot massager to da-gu-ma and stayed ard for a while.. later hit home to Zzzzz...

This was taken at the front door where we can see the company's logo~! Actually there's something wrong with the logo, see if you can spot it..!!! :P

This is Olivia (Ollie).. Ms Abalone.. kekez.. or SBJ (Singapore Born Japanese) Full of crapZ and RuBBish in the office, but always makes me laugh... we are in fact rather close as there used to be only 2 gals in the office as compared to 20 over guys.. somehow, we grew up together these 2 yrs.. we had so much fun and laughter and we always help each other.. i will certainly miss Ollie.. :(

Shirley ~ the shipping coordinator.. married young and now her elder son is already in Sec 2.. cant tell right? she's only 32 yrs old..! Sweet lady with a motherly touch..

This is Wee, the 38-yr-old Operations Executive.. Full of complaints but rather close to me.. behaves like a 25-yr-old rather than his actual age.. married with a cute 4-yr-old boy.. my lunch kaki.. sms me the most out of the remaining colleagues.. i guess he will miss me alot as I believe I'm the closest to him than other colleagues.. kekez..

A photo with the GUYS ~ From left: CS Teo, the Shipping Executive cum "papa", always so fatherly and gentle.. He's the Mr Nice-Guy type.. married with a pair of 7-yr-old twins (long fei tai).. beside me is CW Ong, from Ipoh, one yr younger than me.. quite a nice boy but sometimes abit chatty and cheeky.. but i like his sunniness.. next is Kenneth cum "Professor".. always fight with me over the copier and shares lotsa jokes with me about the "Hospital" scene we created.. kekez.. I am the Director (Yuan Zhang) while he is in charge of Inner injuries and nutrition, Ong is the plastic surgeon, Teo is the Dentist, Shirley is Pediatrician, Olivia is Head of Mental Illness, Wee is in charge of Cancer Department while Albert is the Gynaecologist.. WAHAHA.. in actual fact, Ong and Kenneth works in shipping department..

Meet the group of doctors ~ Dr Kenneth Tan (Nutritionist cum inner problems), Dr Shirley Oh (Pediatry), Dr Olivia Lee (Mental illness), Dr Wendy Leo (Director), Dr CS Teo (Dentistry), and Dr Albert Lim (Gynaecology) - missing out from the pic is Dr LC Wee (Cancer Dept) and Dr CW Ong (Plastic Surgery)
(Btw, Albert is the operations manager who is gentle and kind, tats why he must be in charge of gynaecology)

Me in my "Doctor's" suit taken at the "hospital office" ~ Look how cool i am :)
