Plans delayed

Due to certain reasons, I am going to delay my job hunting, and continue staying on with my current job...at least wait till next year's CNY is over, before I try again...

At first I was very disappointed, why do I have to wait?? I have been waiting for the moment to leave and now I have been advised by various people not to...

Of cos, I can choose not to listen to them and just continue with my plans..but, does fate or luck work with me? So far I have only applied to 2 jobs, and none replied me..so what if I quit now? I can go ahead and quit, but I have to face the consequence of staying at home and not contributing to the household...AS IF I dare to do that... :S

Well, solution?
Don't think so much and re-tune my mindset. :)

SO long never blog here!

OMG, I just realised that I have not blogged since June!!!

That is really, super duper long! I think nobody is going to read my blog anymore, LOL...

Don't know why I have not thought of blogging, perhaps I'm too involved on Facebook, too hooked to it, such that whenever I have things to write, I'll update on FB instead of my blog...

I have many things to say in my mind, however when it comes to penning things down, I'm dumbfounded, I don't know how to express myself well ba, I thought...

Recently, quite a few friends of mine are going through breakups. Feel sad for them..some relationships lasted a year plus, some 5 years!! First thing I thought about was: 问世间情为何物?只叫人痛不欲生…… I have been through 2 relationships so far, but they are very short-lived, 3 months and 1 month, but no matter what, they are still breakups, and I had to deal with the heart pain too, so I can understand how they feel, it's just that I cannot feel to what extent is that pain, must be very, very, very bad...I cannot imagine how would I feel if I'm the one experiencing it...
Definitely cannot take it, I thought to myself.

I sincerely hope they can quickly recover from the heart pain, and be their happy selves again...see the way they are sufferring, I think I am getting more and more uninterested to get into another relationship again...but I will still be positive, wont shut myself up lah, but I guess, I may not like someone easily like what happened in the past le..不敢放心去爱...

很感人的短片



好感人啊,发现最近MCYS的“家庭”系列短片都很有“感觉”,看了都会让人忍不住想哭。这些“催泪弹”害我哭了不少……哈哈!

亲情,的确要经得起考验啊。现在有多少人的亲情还是那么地深厚?尤其是对于家中的老父亲、老母亲?人是不是奇怪的动物?都只记得要照顾、疼爱小的,却忘了老的?其实有些人说得对,老人家就和小孩一样,我想,耐心的确是不可缺少,问题就在于,有多少人能够做到这点?

小学时常常听到“饮水思源”这个成语,在这种情况下运用实在是再贴切不过了。也许用在祖先上或许有些遥远,不如就先用在自己的祖父母和父母上,更能感受到其意义?:)

Updates

Hiannie just reminded me that I have not been updating my blog. Haha..oops! Always forget about it..

Almost half of 2010 has past, and it's time for the 2nd half to unfold! Basically, seems like the 2nd half of 2010 will make me very much busier. I plan to learn driving (I hope I'll make it happen, haha!), I'm going to be A380 trained in July, and I'll be going to New York with Keelee for a 2-week holiday! :D

A380 - Love-hate relationship. It's going to be lots of hard work but more European stations, which also equates to more money, hehe.. Hopefully things will be fine at work!

I gotta buy air ticket for the New York trip soon! And start planning for the trip, places to go and accomodation. Not a lot of time left, but I don't think we will take a long time to do those planning...hehe..and we have to do it via email and phone calls.

Other than that, I think that it should be all that I wanna do this year. Other things to plan, will be to consider when to quit my current job, and to apply for new jobs. I would like to obtain my driving license first before I quit. Oh, another thing, maybe to plan a Taiwan trip to go with my parents next year or what.

Argh! So many things to do! One thing at a time...

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all mothers in the world! :D

It's Mother's Day again, a day to remind the children how good our mothers are, and a day for our mothers to take a break. Is that all? I think it's also a day for eateries, salons, florists and other businesses that you can link Mother's Day with to earn BIG bucks. Haha. Just thinking from the practical side..heh..

Nevertheless, meaningful or meaningless, as I always say, 开心就好. It can be a day for extended family members to gather, other than during festivals or events like CNY or Christmas. :)

My cousins and I decided to order buffet dinner to treat our family on Saturday. It was an evening filled with laughter. :D

The buffet spread!


Mother's Day cake!


Our mothers and grandmother! :D 母亲是最伟大的!

Please be careful with your belongings!

Just lost my wallet at Johannesburg, South Africa. Lazy to type the details cos I have repeated the story N times. Haha.

I can only say that things do happen, and as much as possible, we have to be really be careful with our personal belongings... There are many reasons one can lose their items. Misplace, dropped because item was not kept properly, carelessness, pickpockets etc. We cannot control a pickpocket's actions, but we definitely can control how we take care of our things.

This time, I am considered lucky that I did not lose important documents such as Identity Card and passport. I do not bring my IC overseas and my habit is to separate my Singapore wallet and overseas wallet. Even in Singapore, I do not keep my IC inside the wallet as well. I'm also lucky because my wallet is not a branded one, although it's new, it costs S$15 "only" so the situation is not worse off.

Cash is gone, credit card has been used as well. So, another important lesson learnt: Once a credit card has gone missing, report IMMEDIATELY. The warnings are there for a reason, and now I experienced it the hard way...
More experiences: Travel to airport alone in order to make a police report. Call the bank and report about the case.

These are really important lessons in life.

I lost my choir concert ticket sales during JC times and it cost me $100+. Since young I have a tendency to be careless, especially with monetary items. I thought I had learnt my lesson since then. Ever since I had never lose my handphone and wallet once. To think after 7 years, it happened to me again. Complacency? Too tired after a flight to be alert? Well...what happened has happened. I just hope that I'll not be so careless again.

So folks, be very careful with your belongings! :)

Good Days After One Bad Day

Well, as the title suggests, I had a bad day (or rather, a bad flight) recently. What happened I do not wish to recall, not because I'm running away from it, but because I do not want to add on the negativity to my life, thus I choose to let it past, and hopefully forget it soon (which is what I'm good at anyway...).

:)

This Dubai-Riyadh flight was, however, great! Not only were my colleagues nice and humourous, the flight itself is easy to do, as compared to other sectors. I'm grateful for that, and this further strengthen my belief of 事过境迁,雨过天晴. :D

I had a good rest in Dubai too. Slept like more than 10hours a day, went shopping, had a good supper with colleagues etc. I wish all my flights could be so happy...hee...
But that's life, there will always be ups and downs, happiness and unhappiness. I am grateful that I experience much more happiness than unhappiness, and I would like to reduce the unhappiness to a minimum, who wouldn't want anyway? :)

I would say my life is almost complete now, I have my beloved family, friends, and a loving and caring boyfriend. I only wish for everyone to be safe and happy, and I'm contented. Regarding my future, especially my job/career, I guess I am putting it on hold for a little longer, and see what future lies for me. :)

Going to studio tomorrow I hope, and I wonder what's in store for me. :) And meeting Keelee and Libing on Sunday too...I wanna cut hair!

我似乎越来越没耐性

哈哈!很奇怪。本以为,飞行会让我磨练磨练,培养我的耐心和忍耐力。可是,飞了一年半,效果似乎刚好相反。总觉得自己越来越没耐性,本是个急性子的我,个性也变得越来越急,很多事情要做得快。我不否认在机上我们得经常跟着时间赛跑,所以若手脚不快那真的不行。不过,我不希望因为这样而使得我整个人都变得很急、很紧张。有时因为这样,我对乘客的态度就不是很好,至少不是我想像中的好(因为有些同事对乘客的态度真的很差)。我以前会静静地、乖乖地,但是心里未必是服气地。现在的自己比较会把不满表现得更明显些吧,因此会觉得自己比较火爆。

在成长的过程中(当然现在的自己还是处在成长的阶段),我一直在想,一直在比较现在和过去的自己,而且也一直在思考我到底想成为一个什么样的人。有时候发生了一些事,会让我很想变成一类人,但有时发生了其他的事,又会让我想做回自己,那个比较懦弱,但却不会得罪人,可是没什么主见,没什么自信的自己。也许自己也没长什么智慧吧,很多时候发生的事情,应该怎么处理,我都没什么头绪。

真的是"one-third life crisis" 啊!Not quarter cos I don't expect myself to live till 100...LOL... 25岁了,都还不知道自己未来的路该怎么走,更不知道自己到底是什么样的一个人……
