It's been soooooooooooooo long since I blog. Haha.. Chinese New Year went passed so quickly that I felt as if I have not rested enough. This CNY should be the busiest CNY I ever had. As usual, first day is the 拜年 day. Normally I would stay at home from second day onwards, but this year, my whole family went to Jurong Bird Park! My dad should have told me earlier so I can get the staff pass for JBP and we don't have to pay for the tickets. But well, we enjoyed the outing. Parrots are really the most noisiest bird I have ever seen, can't be quiet. Noisy to a point that I want to kill them all, haha, not so cruel~ Can finally rest on the third day of CNY, going to prepare for the fourth day as my friends will be coming for lunch. So fourth day, friends came. We ate lunch, watched Bollywood movies, played Monopoly Deal and some ate dinner together with my family. On the whole, SHUANG!! Haha~ Nothing is better than spending time with friends and family!! After CNY, it's back to reality. Focus would be back on work. Work starting to increase for me, first experience on everything. Got to be careful since it's my first try. Did some mistakes, but lucky it's reversible and thus managed to save it but wasted some time. Then got sick, which is so irritating because I can't go exercise and can't go KTV with my friends. Started exercising last week, went running with colleagues and felt great! Although it's quite tiring, but after the run, felt so great that I have worked my body. Therefore, I have decided to go running every week but got sick at this point of time. Need to get well, I want to continue my healthy lifestyle, to train my body, maybe not train, maybe I should say 'to get healthier compared to now'. So my goal for this year will be "To exercise at least once a week." A subset goal will be "To reduce my intake of oily or unhealthy food". Right! That's my goal for this year!! Speaking about goal, maybe the third goal will be "To start a Masters program this year and finished it within two years". Haha! Three goals! 加油! =) Work is fine, getting the hang of it. I must train myself to ask questions when I don't know, if not I'm not learning anything and keep making mistakes. Writing about work makes me remember this colleague that I have (also my superior) is so funny. He's from Taiwan and his English is not really good. The funny thing is when a question is threw to him, he would replied 'yeah, you are right.' and I'm like 'what you are right, you are not answering the question!?' And finally in one meeting, one Korean guy asked him a question and he replied in this manner and the Korean guy just replied 'What right!? I am asking you ________?' He almost explode at the moment. OMG!! Please go take some English conversational class! At least speak some English that I can understand and at least understand the question that people are asking. How he got his PhD I really don't know~ Another problem with him is that he always touch other people's belongings without asking! I'm not referring to wallets or those personal stuff. It's the things (e.g. notes, papers, etc.) that you put on your desk. He just went to your desk, flipped through the papers to find what he wants. Since he's my superior, whenever I met any problem I will need to inform him. So there's once I called him from the cleanroom, I never expected him to come to cleanroom but he did. And with my runsheet which I have printed for my own reference and where did I put my runsheet? I have placed my runsheet in my cleanroom book on my desk! If he didn't flip the book, he won't know! Maybe he knows I placed my reference runsheet there, but shouldn't he told me about it. For example, when he came to the cleanroom to find me, he could have said 'Kwan Ling, I have taken the runsheet from your book.' If he had said this, I wouldn't mind. Instead, I noticed that it's mine, I asked him whether he took mine and he just said 'Yes'. WTH!! I know all these can consider as company properties, but shouldn't he have the basic courtesy to ask or to admit his mistakes!? Oh well, I shouldn't carry on complaining about his behaviour, wasting my blog space. He better don't let me catch him red-handed, I won't give face! As for the Masters program, I am thinking of doing it by coursework either in Mechanical Engineering or Biomedical Engineering. But I am still exploring other options, don't want to restrict myself. But it seems like I am left wth this two choices. Need some more time, but the process is quite tiring because need to go from page to page. Information overload! Maybe I should just settle with this two. Haha~ I should go get some rest so I could recover faster. =) |

Long long time didn't come to update. Don't how to. Ya, things happen but how to account to each and every one of them.. Work is fine. Heard my boss/mentor is resigning, already submitted the resign letter. So the question is who will be my new boss/mentor? There are quite a number of new staffs joining us, but who is the one replacing him? Seriously, I can't say I don't care. But so what if I know who is it? Now I just need to prepare myself to accept the new boss/mentor. 兵来将挡，水来土掩。I hope I wrote it correctly. It means I will overcome whatever comes my way. Told some of my friends that I am going to take leave next year Valentine's day to emo at home. Haha~ One of them told me about her friend who got attached and getting married this year and she is 26 now. So which means everyone of us will have that someone waiting for us somewhere. Oh well, if it's not mine, then it's not. What's mine will come. Can only console myself this way. Haiz.. Now is work, home, work, home, etc.. Soon, I will start going out. Already planned for the next few weekends, hopefully all of them will be a pleasant one. Gatherings and dinners with my friends, should be nice since it's been such a long time meeting them. Haha~ Oh, I forgot one thing! It's not only work and home, there is also Facebook. Haha~ I am so free that I can play Facebook so frequently. Crazy~ It will be nice to be attached, but I sure know that I will miss the single status when I'm attached. Haha~ Crazy gal~ It's the norm. Alright.. Off to Facebook.. =) |

Long weekend. Went to my big aunt's house warming on Deepavali. Have no idea why her daughter sold the 4-room and bought the old 3-room they had before. No idea. Renovation not as great as I have thought to be. Today went to Jurong Point with parents to shop. Haha~ Two busy days. Tomorrow going to my grandma's house. Long weekend gone just like that. So fast, it seems like I didn't do much stuff. Not feeling happy these few days, don't know why either. Just not happy. Nothing bad happened so that's why don't know why. I can be happy over some things for a while and then back to my 'unhappy mode' once I'm alone. Quite a bad thing, mood swing so sudden. But can't help it, it's quite auto. Can be happy around friends and colleagues, of course if we are talking about happy or funny stuff. But once I'm alone and nothing to do, my 'unhappy mode' is on. I don't wish to be like that too. I should just keep myself busy. Now at work is surrounded by those couples or those attached or even married. It seems like I'm the only one not attached yet. It feels quite sour sometimes when you see these people but you can't blame anyone or anything or myself, because you can't control over this kind of thing. If it can be controlled, tell me who's controlling it. I will go question that person, why let me be alone for so long. I want someone who I can rely on, someone to hold my hand or just hug me when I'm feeling down. Will I meet my 'someone' soon? Ya, take it easy. Maybe it will come when I don't desire it. Haha. |

Ate Sakae Sushi for dinner today. So long didn't eat already, although the service is slow but it is still quite enjoyable. That means company is important, who you eat with plays an important role. Haha~ Felt a bit sad today, because I tore one of the samples when I put it in the container and it is nicely peeled off from the wafer lo.. Felt so sad?? Or maybe I felt so stupid?? I felt like I am wasting other people's effort. Why why why?? Sometimes feel like I am of no use here, why they hire me I don't know. Wasting time, wasting money, wasting effort~ Haiz~ Labels: Sakae Sushi, Work |

End of weekend. Beginning of a new week. Time really flies. Going to be another busy week. Hope everything will go alright. Today is a super HOT day. I sweat the whole afternoon. Now I can't stand outside for one second, air-conditioner is such a good invention. I love it! Haha~ Still feeling confused. It's not something that I can tell other people. Have to sort it out myself. But can I really do that? Have to control myself before something happens. Maybe staying the way at it is now is a better choice. Or maybe I think too much. All the 'maybe's.. |

Started work one week ago. Tiring but happy to see colleagues and friends again. Haha~ Went kite flying on my birthday. So fun, but my rainbow kite went down and got stuck on the tree in the middle of the highway. Haiz~ But when I went kite flying just now, I saw my rainbow kite again! Although it is lower than last time, but the string is being snapped into two by someone. I could have taken back my rainbow kite. I also saw someone trying to get the kite too. Haha~ My poor rainbow kite.. Kind of addicted to kite flying now. But the wind direction at the field opposite my house is not constant, so we can't keep the kite in the air. So irritating. But it's still fun. Haha~ As for the work load, it is still manageable. I really don't know a lot of stuff. Sometimes feel like I am useless there, but well, it's another kind of training. Just hope the equipment can be up asap, so I don't need to move between two clean rooms. Haha~ On a happier note, my office is renovating next Friday. Woohoo~ But the wall is going to get lower, which means I can't sleep. Haha~ Not really sleep la~ Just resting eyes only.. Hahaha~ But still quite excited about it.. For my birthday, I got a Doraemon cup and a Xperia X10 mini from my sister. Haha~ Still used to my SE w995 now, maybe will change to X10 mini when I feel like using a touchscreen phone. Finally managed to sync all my contacts to this X10, I am so a technology idiot. Need to check a lot of forum before I understand how it works. I don't understand why whenever I import my contacts from my SIM card, it only imported 250 contacts when I have around 390 contacts. Weird, isn't it?? Haha~ But well, I got it done in the end! Haha~ Feeling confused these few days over some matters. Not sure what to do. Should I just leave at the way it is now? Or should I pursue on? I don't know. Maybe I should just leave it at it is now. Let it happen at its own pace. Or maybe I'm wrong. Alright, I guess I have finished updating my activities for the past one week. Have a happy weekend everyone! =) Labels: Kite flying, Random, Work |

Yesterday had my last gathering before the surgery next Wednesday. Haha~ But I felt tired halfway, so didn't talk much. Haha~ Working is so tiring. Haha~ Especially when it is not going in the direction you want.. Sian~ Just now, I watched the 2 badminton preliminary matches. The Belgium and Negeria players are quite good. Good skills and techniques.. Then , I have watched the Archery 1/8 elimination, SIN Vs. GBR. The Britain player is really good, he can get quite a lot 10 points. But Singapore player won!! Haha~ The final round is the deciding factor. Cool~ Now I have to wait till 1pm to watch some matches on Ch U. =) Labels: Work, YOG Singapore 2010 |

I must be super bored to be blogging during my work. I can't do anything unless the equipment is up. I have two lots in the waiting queue. I have to find some things to do until 5pm, then I can go for tea break. Haha~ Very automatic go for tea break. How how how!!??? Nothing to do!! Read papers will make me sleep. Sleep also ok because my cubicle mate is not in, but what if someone walk in?? Haiz.. Alright, I should stop blogging, it seems wrong to be blogging during work. Haha~ =) Labels: Work |

Today in MRT, I stepped on someone's toes!! Oh no!! But it was an accident. I being knocked by one lady who is trying to shoo her children into the train. The someone is a lady wearing sandals, which means to say I stepped on her toes directly. Ouch~ Yes, that's what she said LOUDLY. At the point of time, I remembered my sister whom I think will have the same behaviour and has been talking about it everytime she reached home. Of course I felt guilty for stepping on her toes, but she need to understand the situation. She isn't standing at those corners where your toes have some protection, if you know what I mean. She is standing at corners where the doors are and people walking in and out can just step on her toes if she didn't keep her toes in. Ok, what am I doing now? Sounds like I am pushing blame on other people. No! I am not. I am just analyzing the situation. But ya, quite sorry about her toes. Must be super duper, to the power of infinity, painful. Can't imagine if I am the one with my toes stepped on. Ouch~ This week is a short week. Thanks to National Day, I only worked for four days. The National Day Parade is much better than last year's, at least I didn't sleep so long. Haha~ I slept for a few minutes when those tanks and vehicles were parading. Can't help it, tired what~ Nice dinner plus soup and not so bad NDP and some Ip Man after NDP marked the end of my National Day. Haha~ And now moving to last working day of this week, hopefully the equipment is up if not it will be another 'sleepy' day for me. Monday will be the medical appointment, so next week is another 4-days week for me. And that means I will have long weekend this week. Woohoo~ Haha~ Speaking about the appointment, hope the blood test gives good results. Then I can wait for the surgery in a relax mood, if not, seriously I don't know how to react. It's not like something I can laugh about it and it will be over. But even if I'm worried, it is still here. So it's better to stay happy than sad right? Haha~ It's not like I can change it now. But really, please be good results~ I may look fine, but I know my mum will get the hardest knock. *Pray* Everything will be fine~ =) |

Long long time didn't update my blog.. Work is fine.. The colleagues are friendly.. Learning new things.. Still doing fine here.. A lot of things happened.. Besides need to wake up everyday to go work, my health is giving the red alarm.. I just hope that the blood test shows a good result and surgery is the only option that is required to solve all the problems.. Surgery is a must said by the specialist.. I knew that too.. But right now, I just hope the surgery will solve everything, no reccurance, nothing.. Yes, I may not be as worried as my mum does, but there are still chances that it is not 'this side' but on the 'other side'.. I really hope it is on 'this side'.. Because if it is on 'this side', surgery is then the key.. But if not, I have no idea what comes next.. At this moment of time, I have felt the care and love by my family and friends.. So touched.. My family went to every appt and scans with me.. My friends are there for me when I need to talk about it.. I am sorry to some of my friends if I didn't tell you in person, I have no idea how to bring it up.. For now, I will just hope my blood test shows green light and I can go for the surgery as soon as possible.. Let me wake up from this nightmare.. Is this considered a nightmare? I am not sure myself because the people around me are more worried than me.. But still, I wish to get out of this situation quickly.. My parents cancelled their trip in Sept because of this.. I understand they don't have the mood for holiday but I felt guilty that I have delayed the trip that my mum is so looking forward too.. I will definitely pay for their ticket and hotel fare next time.. I am so sorry for it.. To end this post, I wish all good health as this is the most important thing on top of all things. May my blood test gives good results~ =) |

Korea lost to Uruguay; Japan lost to Paraguay; Brazil lost to Netherlands; Germany lost to Spain. All the teams that I have supported.. Why?? Hai.. Later will be the third fourth placing match, Germany vs Uruguay.. Still thinking whether I should wake up to watch.. Haha.. As for work, things are going fine. Made new friends, managed to get things done. For the first month, I kept eating lunch alone. But for this second month, I can finally can eat with other people. Haha.. Happy! Alright, that's all~ :) |

My previous post is a bit... erm... scary. Haha.. But I'm ok now, don't worry. Just scratches on watch won't kill me. Been following up on the World Cup matches since the start of it. Some people actually shocked that I watched World Cup. Haha.. It's quite exciting sometimes, but of course there are boring times where they are only shots from both sides but no goals. That's quite irritating, especially the match Brazil vs. Portugal. I am hoping to see some goals, some excitement but no. Nothing. Feel like wasting time to watch. At least Ivory Coast vs. North Korea is 3-0 but it's bad for North Korea, they have lost quite a lot. Quite sad to see them like that. Haiz.. For this World Cup, I am hoping to see more african and asian teams can enter to the next round. But I am shocked that Italy and France are out. Well, this shows that strong teams are not always the one that enter to the next round. Let's just wait and see who will become the final champion. =) As for work, well, it's still the same, except yesterday. Yesterday morning, I woke up I heard the rain and I knew. I will be late. And indeed VERY LATE. I reached my company at 1030AM, can u believe it? Haha.. 1030AM!!! The whole journey is like this... 0740 Leave house 0750 Just to cross one road 0755 Reached the bus stop 0820 Got onto the bus to Boon Lay interchange 0900 Reached Boon Lay interchange 0910 Got onto MRT 0920 Reached Clementi station 0940 Got onto the bus 1020 Reached company Yup~ That's my whole journey. I saw 3 bus went ahead of my bus towards my company. OMG~ They are so empty and mine is PACKED!! Haiz.. Crazy day~ But of course, it's a short day for me~ Haha.. =) Alright, I think I should stopped here before it become an essay writing. =) Labels: Work, World Cup 2010, 杂谈 |

Update about my work. Still same few things but with more trips to the cleanroom and longer stay too. Although it is tiring, but at least I will have something to do and won't fall asleep. Oops~ Haha.. Also, World cup is here~~ Woohoo~ Haha.. I am not supporter of any team but I like to watch if time allows. Watched quite a few alr, going to watch Portugal vs. Ivory Coast soon at 10am. But I think I will start watching in the middle of the first half, because I haven't bath yet. Haha~ Alright, that's all! =) Labels: Work, World Cup 2010, 杂谈 |

Another phase in life-Work. Ytd is fine, slack around. But today. Woo~ Before lunch, it is peaceful. I can do my stuff, walk around, slack here and that. But after lunch, it's full concentration. My eyes almost stick to the computer screen. I have learnt a new software for 3D drawings, but still need practise. The actual thing that I need to draw is super difficult. So many parts assembled together. One look at the final image and I know I will be in that lab with that com for the rest of the week, just to learn and be familiar with the basic operations of the software, then I can start doing those complicated parts and assembly. Woo~ Just when I said I am bored. Besides the software, I am also able to assess the folder full of the project info. Need to know from the start till now. Woo~ Information overloading. Need to learn software, read the folder and get to know my colleagues. I only got to know the two starting the same day with me, some HRs and only TWO from my project. And my project has around 8 to 10 people I believe. Woo~ Late at night. Need sleep. Nitex~ |

Feel like using English for my blog again. Haha. No idea why. Starting work soon, will be missing the slack feeling. The feeling of just walking around in the house finding some things to do, or just go disturb my mum. Haha. Maybe I am crazy, but I think I will miss the feeling of studying for exams. Four years. Four years of university life is over. There are happy times, there are sad times. The friends I have made is a gift to me. Don't know how my uni life will be without them. I hope we will still remain in contact and be friends forever. Can we? Always feel sad when I remember I won't be seeing them everyday from now onwards. Although we will still meet from time to time, but I guess I am used to the presence of them already. So difficult and maybe reluctant to move on to my next phase. Starting work the coming Monday. Don't know what to prepare. I know I will be learning new stuff. Things that I have never encountered in my uni modules. But the feeling of unprepared is quite scary. Don't know. Don't care. Let me slack some more for the last few days before I start work on Monday. Good luck to me. =) |
