what you get VS what you know
I heard this interesting topic of conversation today. ‘Try not to have a wish of getting something as this originates from greed. Instead, try to have a wish of knowing something as this orginiates from wisdom’
Interesting indeed. Someone gave this example ‘do not wish to get married. Instead, wish to know your true love. Wanting to get married doesnt ensure that you will have a...

I guess holidays really made me realize that I have nothing to look forward in life. There is nothing exciting in my life once studies are over! I just sit in front of my laptop everyday to watch some drama serials. What a sad and boring life I have. =.=
And I guess I have been sleeping too much lately. My body clock is a little screwed up. I have difficulties sleeping at night and I tend to...

3. Friends
In my closest group of friends, one of them was experiencing a difficult time in her relationship with her bf. Just around 1 month ago, we realized through facebook relationship status update, she broke up with her bf. The rest of us were shocked. She was together with her bf since University days and they were together for more than 2 years already. They also always seem to be very...

2. Job Applications
The big 4 companies held a University recruitment drive together in November. All students graduating next year will apply together and get selected by the different companies. I was really lucky to get offered by my dream company,P**. Never did I dream that I would get an interview with P**. My results were not fantastic. I did not hold any leadership positions in my CCA. But...
Updates! (Part 1)
It has been a long time since I last blog. The last entry posted by me was in week 4! And the term has ended now and 1 week of holidays has passed! And my niece is 3.5 months old now! HOW TIME FLIES! Many things happened during the short span of a few weeks. Let me take the time to slowly recount them to you. (:
1. Studies/school term
This term can be considered my most xiong term in SMU ever. I...

This week is a super busy and mad rush week for me. I just completed my AFA presentation on Tuesday and I have a quiz later today at 5pm and AT project due on Saturday 12noon. (AT presentation next Monday)
goodness. So many things in a week. This is only week 4 I thought? Why does it feel like week 13 already!
AFA presentation was a total disaster. The question was so difficult. My group and I...
Today marks the 2nd day that my niece is staying in my room. =(
I HATE THIS. I have no room now. I can’t study now. I can’t sleep in my own room now. I can’t slack in my own room now. I can’t do so many things now. I hate myself. I hate myself being so unlucky. I hate my house being so small.
Today is the 2nd day that I’m staying up late and doing work in the LIVING...

I need to file a missing persons police report soon.
My friend, TIME has conveniently disappeared from the surface of this world since last week.
If you ever see her, please help me to tell her that she is greatly missed and please be back for me soon!
Thanks!
What do I want?
Today marks the 1st day of my final year in school. Come to think of it, I have been in the education system for the past 15 (22-7) years of my life! Woo. More than half of my life was spent studying.
As I approach my final year, the next impeding task to do is to look for jobs. I really have no idea what I want to do when I graduate, which makes my job seeking journey very difficult. I am...
Success is about being happy and getting...
I have gotten down to reading some self-help/improvement books these days instead of fiction. Reason being next Monday, 16 Aug, I will be embarking on my last year of my study, which means it’s time to start finding jobs! And I want to be as prepared as I can for my future job/career whatever it may be. (:
I’m currently reading this book, ‘The Recipe for Success’
This is...
Today I went to visit this ah ma at Bedok, with Pei Rong.
Both Pei Rong and I have been visiting this ah ma for the past 5 years (since JC1). Pei Rong and I joined this CCA, LEO CLUB when we were in Temasek Junior College and as part of our CCA activities, we were assigned to this ah ma. Our roles included visiting the ah ma on a regular basis, listen to her complains and thoughts whenever we...

Sometimes, I feel that I’m an irresponsible friend. Someone who does not deserve to have any friends.
I often do not show enough concern for my friends and only become concern with my friends when something happens to them. I think I need to change that and be more concerned to my friends and family!
Amy is one of my best-est uni friend and even though we only got to know each other for...
Pei is back! (:

In the 1 month that I was back in Singapore, I spent wonderful times with the family and friends that I missed so much in Korea. Thanks for making me feel so happy and blessed with all of you! (:
1 month anniversay
Today marks the 1 month anniversary of being back in Singapore for me. For your info, I went on an exchange program to Korea for the past 4 months and just got back to Singapore on the 9th of July. (:
To be honest, I enjoyed my exchange in Korea but not as much as what people would imagine it to be or not as much as I would expect myself to enjoy it. Yes, exchange provided me with a chance to...
