昨日西风凋碧树,独自高楼,望尽天涯路。 衣带渐宽终不悔,为伊消得人憔悴。 众里寻他千百度,蓦然回首,那人却在灯火阑珊处。 -王国维《人间词语》

Wednesday went by with a WOOSH!

 

I was soaked up in work today trying to complete the task within the day and I did it! Felt a little incredulous and slight mental exhaustion cause I was on 100% concentration the whole day. If only I can apply the same to studies. HA!

 

So with a hint of satisfaction, off I went (with my colleagues) to hit the gym at our new office!

Our new office is located at The Central, Clarke Quay MRT station. We will be shifting soon, probably end of January.

 

The best part? The facilities are awesome.

Gym: Comes with a mini television on half the stations.

Steaming Room.

Open-air Jaccuzzi & baby pool.

Open Garden concept with beds, sofas. Think Cafe del Mar @ Sentosa.

1-lap Swimming Pool with the width of about 3 lanes.

 

Not to forget about the office..

Shower facilities in the toilet.

Induction cooker.

Microwave, oven.

and did I mention the panoramic view of Boat Quay (especially at night)?

 

So we gym-ed, lingered in the steaming room, showered & went for Subway.

It always feel good after exercising.

A long day, but definitely a refreshing & fun one.

Hehe. Saw the F1 Widget from ESPNstar.com and 'grabbed' it here immediately!

 

Totally loving my new blog. It is becoming more like my mini homepage. Hee.

 

For those who are interested in getting the widget, click "Grab" at the bottom right corner of the widget and choose accordingly. For the embed html code, click 'embed'.

Now, we just need to wait for ESPNstar to update the details to 2010!

 

54 more days to go!

Album: 我瘋你

Track: 雖然我願意

曲 : 伍家輝

詞 : 伍家輝&小寒&蕭賀碩

 

 

請讓我 靠近你輕輕對你說
別讓我 每個夜為你受折磨
是多麼 不容易才默默放手

為了我 就當作這次為了我
別讓我 因為你被回憶折磨
而空氣凝結了我們的臉孔

我別無 選擇
就算我們之間有什麼問題
依然想念著你
雖然被放棄 雖然我願意

就算我們之間有什麼難題
黑夜 我還想著你
心碎人孤寂 雖然我願意

再讓我 靠近你輕輕對你說
當我說 我要你從此好好過
是真的 否則我怎麼肯放手

為了我 就當作這次為了我
賜給我 你現在幸福的笑容
別讓恨凍結了我們的臉孔

請你做 選擇
就算我們之間有什麼問題
依然想念著你
雖然被放棄 雖然我願意

就算我們之間有什麼難題
黑夜 我還想著你
心碎人孤寂 雖然我願意

心碎人孤寂 雖然我願意
就算我們之間有什麼問題
依然想念著你

雖然被放棄 雖然我願意
就算我們之間有什麼難題
黑夜 我還想著你
心碎人孤寂 雖然我願意
心還想著你~

很多人应该是从《881》中的OST《一人一半》认识了伍家輝。而我是从《雖然我願意》和《远距离爱情》爱上了伍家輝的歌。他的歌居多是辛酸,浪漫情歌。在属于两个人的爱情世界里,往往独自一人徘徊着已失去的爱情里。简简单单的歌词与旋律,却唱出了许多人的心声。


《雖然我願意》陪伴我有一年的时间, 也帮了我许多。

记得当我第一次听到这首歌时,正是我的低潮,所以眼泪自然而然就落下了。当时的心情,除了辛酸,还是辛酸。这首歌完完整整地写出了我的心声。

很奇怪的是,在辛酸的另一端却带着一丝丝的温暖。每次听完后都会感到安慰。到后来我才明白,这温暖来自于伍家輝的歌声与歌曲的旋律。


也非常喜欢伍家輝的《肚子饿了》


请多支持伍家輝哦~

The F1 atmosphere is slowly burning up with a mere 57 days away from the first 2010 grand prix in Bahrain.

The first official appearance of Fernando Alonso as a Ferrari driver in the Wrooms' event made it even better for me.

 

26 cars.

Major drivers re-shuffle.

No pit-stop, only tyre-stops.

4 World Driver Champions on the same grid:

Alonso being Schumacher's old rival.

Hamilton being Alonso's old rival.

Button being Hamilton's 2010 team-mate.

 

How will the story unfold?

8th WDC for MS?

3rd WDC for FA?

2nd WDC for LH or JB?

Or will there be a 5th WDC?

 

I personally am hoping that FA will get his 3rd WDC.

But whatever the case is,it doesn't get any better than this.

Smeh~ I forgot to take photos of Chilly in my office today. He accompanied me for the whole day at work and I gave him a load tonnes of pat on the head! Hee~ If only there is a mini glasses that fits his head, I think he will look adorkable.

 

Anyways, am so glad I am back in office for this week! I have been stuck at client's place for so long that I missed the people in my office! Well, mainly cause there is super low human traffic at client's place. I am forever stuck in a room, either all by myself, or with Jasmine. Am so glad that I don't have to lunch alone this week. Hee~

 

Work stops for this week and for the next 4 days, (I hope) I will be a good student!

 

I think I really prefer working to studying. Haa..

有些話妳選擇不對他說 妳說某種脆弱 我才感同身受
我永遠都願意當個聽眾 安慰妳的痛 保護著妳從始至終 就算妳的愛
屬於他了 就算妳的手 他還牽著 就算妳累了 我會在這

一人留 兩人疚 三人遊 悄悄的 遠遠的 或許捨不得 默默的 靜靜的 或許很值得
我還在某處守候著 說不定這也是一種 幸福的資格
至少我們中還有人能快樂 這樣就已足夠了
有些話我選擇保持沉默 別把實話說破 隱藏我的寂寞
妳的情緒依然把我牽動 躲在妳心中 角落的心事我能懂
就算妳的愛 屬於他了 就算妳的手 他還牽著 就算妳累了 我會在這

一人留 兩人疚 三人遊 悄悄的 遠遠的 或許捨不得 默默的 靜靜的 或許很值得
我還在某處守候著 說不定這也是一種 幸福的資格
至少我們中還有人能快樂 這樣就已足夠了
不知道 不知道 不知道 為什麼 為什麼 我的愛
我的愛還留不住妳的離開 卻都總在 等待著妳回來

一人留 兩人疚 三人遊 悄悄的 遠遠的 或許捨不得 默默的 靜靜的 或許很值得
我還在某處守候著 說不定這也是一種 得不到的 卻美好的
至少我們中還有人能快樂 這樣就已足夠了
至少我們中還有人能快樂 這樣就已經夠了

Fernando Alonso is to make his first appearance in Ferrari colours on Monday afternoon, when he arrives at Ferrari's traditional winter ski event.

The 'Wroom' week at Madonna di Campiglio in Italy is an annual media event hosted jointly by Ferrari and Ducati via their shared sponsor Marlboro. It runs until Saturday 16 January, and will see Alonso presented to the press along with his 2010 Formula 1 team-mate Felipe Massa and Ducati's factory MotoGP duo Casey Stoner and Nicky Hayden.

Alonso has already made his first appearance for Ferrari when he visited its World Finals meeting at Valencia last autumn, but as his Renault contract did not officially expire until the end of the calendar year, he was unable to wear Ferrari branding on that occasion. He also spent time at Ferrari's Maranello base before Christmas and began preparations for his first season with the team.

Ferrari's 2010 challenger - designated the 281 - will make its track debut at the first post-testing ban sessions at Valencia on 1 February as expected.

"Love is not a Theory, because it cannot be define.

Everyone has their own definition of love which is unique and applicable to one's self only.

Love is not Science, because there is no law that governs it.

We are the reactants, but there is no guarantees or methods to make any reactions work.

Love is not Mathematics, because there is no definite answer & solution.

There is no rights or wrongs, and there is never a correct solution.

Love is not a Language, because it doesn't speak for itself.

You have to feel it."

Onto something that I find it amusing..

I was chatting with a friend whom made me thought of the "me" 1 year ago. Well, more because what he is going through now is sort of the exact replica of what I went through 1 year ago. As he was telling me his story, my processor was 'running multiple programs at the same time' - listening to him from an objective point of view while empathizing his feelings and thoughts, and at the same time, digging through my own memories. It was amusing because I see the "SY from 1 year ago" in my friend.

 

It was only just that I had this intriguing thought - I am glad that I went throughout that heartache 1 year back.

Why?

So that I am able to empathize and listen to those who is going through the same.

Whenever breakups happen, friends play an important part in picking up the pieces. However for most of the time, they play a role of an 'objective outsider'. They are able to understand & sympathize, but not empathze. They will tell you the rights and wrongs, but forgot that there is no rights and wrongs when it comes to love. They will share their objective & logical thoughts with you, but not realising that love is an equation made up of only (and many) variables.

I must admit, we do stupid things. Whether we are in the 暗恋 stage, pursuing stage, in a relationship stage or the breakup stage, we do tonnes of silly things. Things which seems so sweet in the eyes of a pair of lovebirds, but ridiculous to the rest of the world.

Similarly, for someone who goes through a breakup, one is bound to do stupid things, and friends will immediately jump in reprimandin the individual. I am not saying this is wrong, but neither would I say that this is right. Afterall, who can firmly say that, a 'correct' decision today will lead to a positive outcome tomorrow, considering the fact that no one can predict the future?

 

I went through the process, and I know how sucky it feels when you have a bunch of friends nailing on you for the stupid things you do. One is already feeling emo-fied, yet when your friends throw you huge logical thinkings which you already know, you have to deal with them. It can be really annoying, especially when you are expected to accept those logics. People do understand logics and have their own personal emotions to deal with. But when it comes to the constant battle between logic vs emotions, it is always a tough fight.

 

Because I went through what I did, it have been much easier for me to empathize with friends who are going through the same. It was a learning process for me, and through this, I am glad that I am able to help a few friends on the same issue. The SY from 3 years ago would have talked/adviced people differently because I could not see it from this point of view.

 

爱情万岁,失恋无罪。

在新的一年里,祝所有有情人终成眷属。

I cannot even begin to describe how bad 2009 was for me. I though 2008 was horrible enough, but, 2009 was the worst.

Even today, on the very last day of 2009, I have to deal with problems and issues. Right here, right now as I am blogging, I am also trying my very best not to let the tears escape. While at the same time, I have to think of a solution for my latest problem.

 

How should I begin..?

 

2009 has been a year filled with too much frustrations and disappointments, waaay too much. Problems come one after another before I can even take a breather.

Although I have long forgotten most parts, there are certain issues that will remain. Because they are problems which I cannot solve within a day or two. I am not just stuck in a vicious cycle, I am sinking in a seemingly bottomless pit. I have always known that I am stuck in this vicious cycle, and I know that I have to get out of it. Something which I am certain that I will be able to acheive someday.

But in 2009, I was pulled into this seemingly bottomless pit situation. And at this point of time, darkness still encompasses my life. I see no light in front of my path, not even a dim, and I have no idea how I am to climb out of this pit.

I tried my best to aid the situation, but it had a minimal impact. Why? Because while I was slowly refilling this hole bit by bit, people were digging bigger holes elsewhere. Thus, I had to cancel whatever plans that I had set for myself. Friends asked me, "I thought you were planning for this and that? What happened?". I could only reply with a "Ha. Plan cancelled".

 

This was the 'best part' that happened in office today.

Wing: I thought you wanted to go Taiwan?

Mui Huang: I thought you planned to go Hong Kong?

SY: (forced laughter) All cancelled. *Points at weide* So was our USA (work-and-play) plans as well.

 

At that point I felt a huge pang. Only then I realised that I had cancelled all my plans in the past 2 years and placed myself right at the bottom of the piority list.

 

Disappointments, frustrations, helplessness.

 

Honestly, not only did Mummy not help the situation, being her tyical self, she made it worse for me. I cannot even begin to explain how much emotional trauma I get from her for the past 23 years of my life. She have not been the kind of mother I have imagined one that I would have, in fact, she is almost on the other extreme end. But this is a topic that I shall not and will never ever touch anymore. Simply because she is my mother, and I can only accept her for who she is. Even though she literally drives me crazy in many occassion, I have learnt not to complain and resent about her. After 23 years of fruitful attempts, I am already at the stage where I know that there is simply nothing I can do about this issue already.

 

Just today, I asked a friend to help me with a small problem of mine. It wasn't really much of a problem, perhaps frustration or constraint would be a better word for it. So I was pretty glad that I managed to get this minor issue off my mind. Sadly, I was met with another major problem which I eventually decided that the help I received for the first issue, will be used to deal with the latter instead. It was an obvious choice on what I had to do, on what I had to choose between the 2. But it was just this feeling of frustration that put me down for the day.

 

Finally on the 365th day of this year, I am almost done walking through this year of my life. No matter how tough 2009 had been, I have walked it through and survived. We are on the closing stage of 2009 chapter and I cannot wait for it to end. I will be heading out to Sook Theng's house (after I am done with this) to join the rest for countdown. And then, it will be a fresh new start..

Goodbye 2009..

 

Onwards 2010..

I don't know why, but I have this strong & positive feeling telling me that 2010 is going to be a great year for me. I am filled with hope and am very much anticipating the arrival of it. Even though I have yet to see any light, I am sure I will be able to in the near future. Moreover, along with the many hypes that will happen in 2010, I will be kept entertained throughout even if I do (hope not!) continue to sink deeper. I already foresee many changes in my attitude and how I will be dealing with issues. First half of 2010 will practically be a disappearance act for me as I try my best to concentrate on studies while juggling with my work. Then for the second half of 2010, I will try my best in every mean and way to better my situation. Even if I have to foresake certain stuff.

 

It certainly feels better after I dumped everything out. I am not resenting. I have already accepted things as they were since I was young. But it really hadn't been easy to keep it all to myself for so long, especially as I add on more weights onto my shoulder. I cannot remember the last time I tried to share my true inner feelings with any individual. That was more than one year ago, and also probably one of the few times I did in my entire life.

 

I will continue walking, and carve a path of my own.

我的世界,我的生活。一步一脚印,放眼天下看世界。

 

 

This is a post not of complaints, not of resentment, not of judgement, not of sadness.

This is a post of conviction, of anticipation, of determination, of perserverance.

So for the first time in I don't know how long, I had the best sleeping routine.

Slept at 11:30am, woke up at 7:30am.

ahaha.

My target for today: Be a good girl and mug the whole day.


UPDATE:

Wouldn't say that I've mugged but I studied. Need to fire up my engine real quick.

I don't know how I managed to survive the whole of yesterday.

Madness.

 

In the end, it was yet another sleepless friday night, even after promising 4 people that I will attempt to sleep before my Saturday morning lecture.

Of course, it was mission unaccomplished.

 

This time round, I was dozing through the first half of the lecture. Surprisingly though, I was wide awake during the second half of it, and I survived lecture.

Mission #2 accomplished.

 

My stomach was feeling unwell throughout lecture and I knew it was the Tom Yum Yee Mian I ate in the morning. The Ice blended peppermint mocha must have played a part too. But ultimately, I think I deserved it. Considering the diarrhea on friday.. hmm.. Fine, I totally deserved that.

 

So I went for badminton in a tired & sick state. Thankfully, Eunice brought her pills for my stomach. And yet another surprise, I was playing not bad. The 4 of us (Me, Eunice, KY, Anli) played for 2 hours straight and I even had a singles training session with Anli. Felt pretty good after badminton.

That was mission #3 of the day, total satisfying.

 

(Oh! Got a baby tigger from Eunice and I was playing with it the whole day. Now I've got 6 toys on my bed. Getting a little squeezy. Hee.. Fankiew Eunice! )

 

After lunch, Anli and I (along with Edmund & Wing) went to bosses house for company Christmas party. Most of them were there already, going crazy on rock band. So we sang, rocked, exchanged gifts, ate and played a little more. I was slightly annoyed during dinner because I was starring at the cake and food which I knew that I could not eat. In the end, I gave in and ate a bit of everything. Well. I didn't touch the cake because I thought that it would be the ultimate killer if I did. Weide was sitting beside me drinking glass after glass of red wine. And I just sat beside him, sniffing the smell of it, pouting secretly. It was annoying to see food which you cannot devour.. opps, I meant 'eat'.

Then, we split into two groups - MJ & movie session. It was obvious which group I was in and Anli lost to me and Mui Huang. We played with the travel pack MJ and it was quite cute, except that we cannot be too rough with it. So I think I should just stick to the normal size MJ. Hehe..

Then I left with Weide after MJ to catch the last train while the rest went on with round 2 of movie marathon.

Last mission of the day, completed!

 

Attempted to play a bit of facebook after reaching home, and the next thing I know, it was already Sunday noon. Apparently I fell alseep and left everything on. Whooops.

 

Total madness.

 

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Met Cindy in the afternoon to get my stickers, stamps & ink pad. Walked around AMK hub and drank milk tea from Koi cafe. (I was filled with jealousy when the office people told me they had a delivery previously. Ew. I wasn't working.) So I had to try one when Cindy wanted to drink, even though I was already feeling full.

And it was yummeh! I liked Cindy's Milk tea + Chin chow. It was simply..

 

Yay. I'm going to play with my 2010 organiser in awhile.

"Why aren't you sleeping?"

"Go sleep already!"


I find it amusing that I have been receiving a lot of such remarks lately.

Just tonight alone I have 4 friends telling me the same thing.

I'm such a brat for not listening to my friends.

(lol) Sorry guys.

Now I'm wondering whether to sleep.

The thought of wanting to sleep is purely out of guilt.

Usually if I am still awake by this time, I will simply forgo the Z's.

Let's see what happens later..

Sony Ericsson Aino

Sony Ericsson Aino

Finally laid my hands on this baby! (Although I had to queue for 1.5hrs + 0.5hrs of waiting in order to get this phone ) The white model was out of stock but the black looks good too. Got it @ $438 (before trade in of $250). Oh, we bought 2 - one for me, one for mummy. Mummy was whining here and there but daddy and I knows that she secretly likes it. Hee.

Lurve the deskstand charger and bluetooth headset!

Aino Deskstand charger

Just when the hype is on BB & iphone, I decided to switch from Samsung back to my favorite Sony Ericsson. For a very simple reason. Aino has everything that I need, and more. My handphone has to be a multi-functional all-in-one - phone, mp3 player, radio player, camera, organiser, Plus I lurve the SE system, clean and simple.

Speaking of which, I finally traded off my Samsung Omnia (16GB) - Coffee version for $250! (By coffee version, I meant the drink. lol.) It was such a steal, Considering I bought it at only $438. Definitely my best buy of 2008. Which reminds me, Omnia was actually a birthday present from myself to.. me! And I got it on 15.08.2008. Something worth remembering about. If it wasn't for the coffee spill, I doubt I would have changed it so soon.

But for now.. Aino rawks! ^_^

 My friends know how huge a bleach fannatic I am and this fact still amazes me everyone once in awhile.

I was watching 鋼の錬金術師(Hagane no renkinjutsushi 2009) and this new character call 'Sloth' appeared, shouting "mendokuse, mendokuse".

 My immediate respose was, "Ho.. Zaraki Kenpachi ne."

What follows next was of course a wikipedia check and WALA! - I did it again. It was  indeed Fumihiko Tachiki, Kenpachiの声優 (Seiyuu aka Voice actor). I think this is the 5th or 6th bleach character which I have identified just from within 鋼の錬金術師 itself.

Having watched the Bleach anime series 10 times sure made my brain(ears) a little.. weird I suppose.

韩庚, Han Geng, HanKyung.

My thoughts on the "Han Geng's request for termination of contract with SM", while the case is still on..

 

因为我们都身不在其中,在事情没搞清楚之余,我们没资格评论。

(Because we are not the direct people involved, we have neither rights to criticize nor comment on the issue before it settles down.)

所以,直到整件事都落地尘埃时,我会保持沉默。

(So until the issue has been clarified and settled, I will remain silent.)

现在的他(们)需要的是支持,而不是无谓的猜测与批评。

(For what he (they) need now is our support, and not speculations & criticism which is of no help to the situation.)

身为韩庚的粉丝,我们只能相信与尊重他,跟着韩庚走..

As Han Geng fans, we can only believe & respect him, and follow Han Geng wherever he goes.

EDIT:

I just watched the 091224 WBC Welfare TV 09 Sharing Concert SJ performance and there were only 9 members who performed. Sorry, sorry & It's You just didn't felt as good as before. Hopefully everything will turn for the better in favour of HanKyung & SJ.
