Well just see how it goes. ha.... Bed Time! Ciao ~

When it's coming to year end, I tend to reflect back on the past year what interesting events have happened.

I dare say this year in particular isn't such a smooth-sailing one. With regards to relationship, I reckon this year is the "make it or fuck it" year. Personally this year has been a fuck it year for me and also for some of my close friends.

But one dear friend of mine, Cengie, it has been the best year for her! Congrats Cen.... you are going to be a mother soon!!! Delkin and I have already self-declared to be the Godmother of your baby! Can't wait till June/July 2007 :)

I am happy that certain matters have come to an end. I must add that I do feel a sense of relief. Since the brand new year 2007 is approaching in a couple of months' time, in order to feel more positive, I keep telling myself that it will all be good and definitely looking forward to a brand new start!

I am not sure why is this so but although everything else is going really well for me be it career or studies, I still feel that I am uncertain of what I want or where I am heading. I feel like a robot, everyday I wake up, go work, come home, study, laze around, hang out with friends. Suddenly I have got no goal in my life. It becomes stagnent.

So to make my life more interesting, I have decided to take up Spanish lessons with Lee-lis. I have also planned something for myself. I know it seems like a mission almost impossible to accomplish. I am going to join the gym and get a personal trainer. I am going to be a healthy girl..... And in order to be healthy, besides joining the gym, I am going to quit smoking. Yes... It is certainly a really really tough decision to let go of my "lover" of many many many years. I will with no doubt miss the good times accompanied by my mild seven.



Weather: Weird

Music: Blower's Daughter - Damien Rice

Mood: damn -jc-

What occurred today was rather amusing. I received 3 emails in the morning all of them with the title of: Monday blues.

Lee-lis and I were barely surviving the start of a work week and this was the email I received from her this morning.

I start to yawn and look at the time

So I turn to my workmate and start to whine



Sitting at my desk counting down the hours

Looking at my screen, numbers turn into flowers



Fighting to keep my eyes open, and all I think is my bed

My mind is blank, I think my brain is dead







Chorus:



Ohhhh Mondays are always so dodgy

Like the worst day EVA



Ohhh Mondays are always so dodgy

Who the hell invented this day?



Ohhh Mondays are always so dodgy

Wish I could just go home



End of chorus (until we can think of something els)



Just daydreaming bout hot men

Or hanging at the beach getting a tan



What a wonderful life that would beeeeeeeee



Sessions at Riverview Hotel, sipping cocktails at the llarma bar…

Simply feeling like a star!



Oh how I wish this was realityeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee



Back to chorus*



Now im just clicking my pen…

Trying to be busy till work ends



What a typical work day, no surprise it’s a Monday



We were having a ball "composing" this song. Now the only thing is what tune is it going to be?


Then off to team meeting at 2pm. Everybody were feeling drained and restless at the meeting. Lee-lis then sent me another email, feeling arty farty I suppose, she described how she felt for the second half of the day.

Ahh damn another team meeting

Such a drag, such a bore

Quick wake me up

Before I start to snore




At last, it's 5pm and I left work immediately. Not really feeling hyped up about work these days, exam is in 2weeks' time and that's not funny. I am seriously way behind time and I need to pull up my socks.



Weather: can you believe that today is 29degrees! Summer now?

Music: watching 24 season 4.

Mood: restless and tired

On Friday 7.10.06, group of colleagues and I planned to go to the annual Perth Royal Show. After working 1month at Paradigm, I have started to bond quite abit with them.



This is Lee-Lis, the girl who sits next to me. We always chat away with latest updates in life or complain away how tired we are at work and trying to be as productive as we can.




Overview of the office.



After work hours, colleagues hanging out in the kitchen area.



It's Sophia's (the corner right)last day. So we had an after work drink farewell "party" for her.



Then the rest of us headed to the carnival! woooHoooooo!!!!

Some pics are with my colleague so shall update those later.













The only reason I went to the carnival was because of the ribs! Can't get enough of it! The food sold at the carnival are sinfully to-die-for.



Managed to take a snap of the store while in the queue.




Mindy and I waiting for the others to finish their ride. Behind us is this dish like thing that spins round and round.

Then we walked around, they took more rides and played more games.

Lee-lis and I then decided to go on the ferris-wheel. I have never been up on one and we were imaging the part played in OC, when Ryan went on the ferris-wheel with Marissa. And there Lee-Lis and I are daydreaming of that day to come.....

After all the rides and games, we all decided to head off for some FOOOOOOODDDDDDD... and watch the fireworks show.




Look what we've won:) (though mine is just a small bear given to me by a colleague who won it from some game).














After Royal Show, we headed back to city and drove to Llama Bar at Subiaco for drinks. I dare say that place looks very very promising! hahahahahaa.... but still I am rather affected in a negative way by JC's actions. Damn him.



Having drinks at Llama Bar.


Friday was one of the longest day of the week. After sending Lee-Lis home, finally managed to get some sleep at 2am! That was how long my day has been.

So today, I went to get my new laptop! I am so pleased with my new toy! And I caught up with Jo for coffee at Subi.


Currently I am really try to avoid this particular pub at King's St. I went out with Deb on Thurs for drinks after work and decided to venture into that pub again afraid of seeing jc. Half of me hope that he is there but of cos, he isn't. He did help me realise some things that I didn't know I was able to achieve. People who cross path with us in life, appear for a reason. I had a great and "over the moon" time with jc last week and I just wish that things can be like it was before.



Weather: Spring time.


Music: Lullaby - The Cure

Mood: Reminiscing the first day of Royal Show

I'm caught in a trap of my own.

Time was overtaking me and I guess I was confused.

Alone again, I am on my own again.

Everything has stumbled from right to wrong.

Fighting to keep afloat, I am on a sinking boat.
