Havent collected my piano grade 8 results for 2.5 years. Took the exam 2.5 years ago right before i flew off to Adelaide for further studies. Havin been back from Adelaide about 10 months, or on off the past 1.5 years, i was afraid and unwilling to know the results. I knew i didnt fare well after the exam as usual, but i really tut no need to see already, i will surely fail.

After several nagging by my parents, finally i deployed D.D to take on my behalf. BUT, they asked me to counter while i was outside waiting nervously. Sian, so pai sae to let them know that i was actually standing outside the school. After asking when i took it and a few flipping of past results, finally i saw my name and a cert. I was pleasantly surprised that i passed. Couldn't believe it but i was smiling in my heart. Finally, after many years of practising piano for both school and leisure, i have made it. Am glad i have passed though i don't think i will use it for my career purposes. Must really thank my parents in my heart for their money and support thru the years for this expensive ECA. Kudos!

Went shopping for D.D.'s christmas tree on sun. Finally bought one with fibre optics. Bought some ornaments and after a quick dinner, went back to D.D.'s place to start the building. D.D. was so enthu loh. Very sweet to just take a step back and enjoy seeing a different side of him. Our theme was silver and here is the night view.



A gift for each other, though i find it a tad ex.


Alrite, time to relax and slp for another day of work tomorrow.

Oh man, my arms dun belong to me anymore, am aching man. Although i only did the knee cable- ski (dun noe the actual term), i need to go for a massage man.

My virgin trip to Batam, didnt noe that the ferry journey was tat long, about 1 hour plus. So slpy, the Tom and Jerry cartoon played on the tv didnt help as the reception is bad. Anyway, the cable-ski venue was not bad, the water is said to be fresh water, think they deliberately build it, its like a water sports venue. Though would prefer to have a sunny day, but the light drizzling seem to make one feel peaceful. The local instuctors taught us the position to start, go low and let the rope and cable pull you. When it was my turn, was surprised that the pull force was very great and unpredictable. When i had to position to the right, my hand had to pull left. Could feel the resistance, if i didnt lock my arms, would probably fly and turn over. Haha.. I completed one round, it took roughly 2 mins. So tired, i had to rest. After that could still feel my arms shaking. Haha. Very on-the-top feeling. The next few rounds were a struggle, i knew that i didnt have arm strength, so i had to really grit my teeth and ride through a right bended round, (5 times for each round). Was super tired and slpy and lazy, so only D.D went to try the wakeboarding with the cables. From my observation, it is really difficult, alot of people even experts, would only go as far as 4 meters from the starting point. Alot tried again and again. D.D. did stand for about 5 seconds. Haha.. Overall i think the experience was great, probably a larger group of friends would be fun. Will let the pictures do the story-telling.

Firstly, life jackets: (D.D looks so charming)


I look tired sia after my first round:


D.D. on the go:


D.D. waiting for his virgin wakeboarding: (he is sitting down on the floating platform)


Note: D.D. didnt help to take pics of me on the action. Sianz..

Work has been exhausting these few weeks. Knowing your work is really important, its shows whether you are doind what is expected of u. Why cant people read properly before asking? Feel very irritated, very troubled, very stressed becoz of all this last min thing. You said 1, now you say 2. Its unfair.

Hiaz... My only comfort is D.D. and home. I pray that people will grow up and take responsibility for their work. WAN D.D. . Muacks..

Have been MIA lately. Lazy to blog and have been bz at work.

Anyway, have a few updates.

Firstly, i have relocated to a new office, One Raffles Quay, on 24th Sep. The building is very new and the view of esplanade and the city is great. Can watch fireworks from there. Although its a new environment and one should feel excited, i miss Suntec. I had direct transport, familar food places and shopping. Now, at Raffles Place, all i can do is to think where i can go for my lunch, wat to do, where to take away food. I dread it. It seems that my role is changing, more of supporting my boss, he said i will be stepping up. But who is to give me time to gain the experience needed, the knowledge that stems from experience. I am still learning, pls dun push me too far. Sometimes, i really cant stand him, i just have to learn to release the negative energy and thoughts. Life is about learning....Back to my new office.

Here is my new desk (right in front of the pantry):


The Ocean View from 41st Floor:


Secondly, i celebrated my 22nd birthday, 26th Sep. Had 3 dinner, one with my poly frenz, 1 with my family and D.D. and finally one with D.D. Honestly, i feel old already. Priorities and thinking has changed as i age. I appreciate the "surprise" dinner that Qiu mei organised for me at New York New York. Thanks for all the presents by Qiu mei, Brenda, Lai man, Kit yee, Ting feng, Boon kok, Yeow Tuck and Jia yang who is aussie.

A Preview of the presents i have received so far:


D.D. gladly adopted another child to which expanded our family to 5. Introducing Dumb dumb, dumbo junior and dumbo. Love them to pieces. They make me feel like a child inside. Haha... Thank you and really love the bag you gave me, Hope your bank is still surviving.

My pressies from D.D.:



Well-paired couple pic:
4 years and nearly 6 months together and counting...





Take care frenz, live life to the fullest.
