Difficult Times

Seems like there are more problems by the day, first Mum is seriously ill and I am worried for her, now we are left to wait for her results from the hospital, then I was diagnosed with this unwelcome illness which i am slowly recovering from, Sis is down with flu, Dad is away on business trip and I am left to take care of Mum, my sch workload is piling up, my postgrad sup is not too helpful, more of bochap kind..... Will things ever get better?

I will be fine, No Worries

Thanks for the well wishes.....Will get well soon :)

Mid Autumn Festival

Its that time of the year again when family and friends gather to enjoy a cup of pu er tea and mooncakes while children play around with their lanterns. Yes, it is the Mid Autumn Festival or Mooncake Festival (tats wat i always call it) . Hmm... Maybe I shld buy myself a lantern and play with sparklers!! Haha.... Still remember my childhood times.... Those were the carefree days.

I will know it is mooncake festival when dad starts bringing mooncakes home from all sorts of places, hotels, restaurants .... The funny thing is none of us in the family likes mooncakes, so we end up giving them away. I try to help finish some mooncakes, esp those snow skin types which will be the first to be eaten up while the traditional ones will take a longer time (snow skin tastes better). Have been eating mooncakes for breakfast for the past 5 consecutive days and I am abt to get sick of it....

Ok, think I shall stop blogging and concentrate with my latest "game" that I started playing 6 weeks ago..... Its called Hysys, where I can "play" with different temp, pressure, equipment like distillation columns and pumps..... I am still trying complete this stage which is due in 4 weeks time and to upgrade myself from Amateur level to Expert level.... haha... Sounds fun ya?

Term Break!!

Finally, term break after 6 weeks of sch!!! Time really flies.... It seems not too long ago when I was still enjoying my holidays after IA. Anyway, term break in NUS = No term break at all...sobsob... cos got project meetings, essay to write, FYP to do, the list goes on and on.... But then, I still need some time to rest..Ha. So, I think i shall satisfy my cravings for Kbox and rollerblading soon..... YESSSS!!!

Braggers are a bunch of Super Turnoffs

I just cant stand pple who like to boast or brag abt anything they can think of.... such as he or she has been to some fancy XXX restaurants and pubs (ok that is fine until the story goes on....), how he blow $$$ in a single night, how girls try to know him bcos he is shuai.... whether i have been there b4.... I mean pls la... like that also like to show off.... wth man...

Recently, someone boasts to me abt how he is going to be succesful after he graduates bcos he has, and i quote, "the brains and personality", "great presentation skills", how interviewers always "like" him when he goes for interviews, next time drive merc or bmw, how being a banker will earn more than an engineer (which is me i assumed) ... and the list continues cos he said so much i cant really remember all the crap he said.... ALL those bragging SURE tells me a LOT abt HIS PERSONALITY..... Wa kaoz.... I was trying to ren and not get pissed... But then I cant believed he even said those things to me.... It sucks big time or shld i say HE sucks big time and all the bragging makes me feel like puking!!!! Argh!!!!

I wun say i am an angel... BUT for one thing, I always learn to be humble AND I dun BRAG.... Probably its the upbringing thats different.... Come on, WATS there to brag abt in the first place? Only childish pple brags.... Sheesh.... I guess in life we get to meet all sorts of pple with "different" or "unique" personality and character, just have to get used to it.
