WELL, I'M BACK!!!
i know i know, it's been close to 6 months since i last posted anything, much to the point that i even have my message board (on blogspot) whining back at me abt being mouldy (thanks to a particular goodness-knows-who, no less. lol.)
lemme see, checking the last post i have....that would be when i just started my second job at BNS (Bank of Nova Scotia) and just received news that i got into ADM (art, design & media) at NTU. wow. seems ages ago really. haha. think i ought to explain my absence a bit? ok here goes.
the may-july period was so packed with activites like council stayover at sentosa, 24th investiture, etc....so that was reason no. 1: "TOO MANY STUFF TO BLOG ABT, TOO LITTLE TIME!" hahahah. the "too little time" part also mainly cos my job at BNS pretty much required me to work from 9am till almost 8+pm every weekday, sometimes even needing to work on saturdays and public hols. so you can imagine how much time i had left for my own stuff.
the july-august period was just plain laziness as my excuse lah huh. hahah yes i admit it. ok lah, there was ADM orientation and preparation for uni etc, but cos it was just abt the only time that i have a break after quitting my BNS job and before i start uni, so i was rather lazing around, sleeping >12 hours a day and playing games during whatever's left of the day. hahahah.
then came MADNESS!!
hahaha, no lah. uni started in early august (NTU starts the earliest of the 3 unis) and so from there on out up till now, it's been a crazy 17 weeks of art classes and assignments. not to mention that just as i thought the working hours at BNS was crazy, the working hours at ADM are hysterical cos i pretty much SURVIVE at least half of those 17 weeks on less than 7 hours of sleep everyday. (more on school life in the subsequent posts :)) no prizes for guessing how much time i had left for blogging. heh.
apologies to anyone who relies on this blog for my updates because those who i am close to are usually updated via msn. and looking back at my posts the last one year or so, i realise that quite a number of posts are just an avenue for me to let out my emotions (generally negative), hence with all frustration, stress that i've had the last 6 months, i just didn't want to repeat the process all over again, making my blog such a sad collection of memories. :)
since i'm free now (last of my exams was on the 19th), and before another trainload of holiday stuff come my way, i think i shall post a few posts here soon. hahah. no guarantees really. and pardon me if my posts are rather disorganised or sound different from what i used to write. blogging again aft such a long time feels rather....weird. hahaha. :p
that reminds me. i ought to update my profile page, and the other pages as well. oh, AND put this post up on my lj as well! lol. :p

Everything.
You're a falling star
You're the getaway car
You're the line in the sand
When I go to far
You're the swimming pool
On an august day
And you're the perfect thing to say
And you play it coy but it's kinda cute
Oh when you smile at me you know exactly what you do
Baby don't pretend that you don't know it's true
Cause you can see it when I look at you
And in this crazy life
And through these crazy times
It's you
It's you
You make me sing
You're every line
You're every word
You're everything
You're a carousel
You're a wishing well
And you light me up
When you ring my bell
You're a mystery
You're from outer space
You're every minute of my every day
And I can't believe that I'm your man
And I get to kiss you baby just because I can
Whatever comes our way
We'll see it through
And you know that's what our love can do
And in this crazy life
And through these crazy times
It's you
It's you
You make me sing
You're every line
You're every word
You're everything
And so la la la la
So la la la la
And in this crazy life
And through these crazy times
It's you
It's you
You make me sing
You're every line
You're every word
You're everything
You're every song
And I sing along
Cause you're my everything

read: LABOUR day.
oh gosh, for the 1st time in my entire life, i actually WORKED on a public holiday. okay, well, i do recall going back to school on labour day 2005 to prepare for council investiture but that's different from the corporate world. somemore my bank job is usually a 5-day work week, no shift-kind-of-job, PLUS i'm only a temp staff so i wasn't expecting to be called back on a public holiday. but oh wells, banks being banks, it's understandably more hectic at month-end so guess i can only justify my 'labour' with better pay. hee. =P
actually, i should say that my public-holiday "holiday" really started only in the evening when i joined hwei san & the councillors at minds cafe@boat quay for a night of fun games. =) played "saboteur" and "take-6", which was just about it cos we didn't have much time since the following day was a work-day. sigh. see, the world's evolved to revolve around work now. lectures, tutorials, exams, & trainings seem oh-so-far-away now.
hmm. somehow council gatherings now are usually the same few pple...unsurprisingly so, but hopefully there comes a day when most (i.e. >75%!!) of the 22nd councillors can meet up again. =)

sigh. i really really REALLY miss playing on the field. anyone willing to take me in? hahah. even if there's a "yes" somewhere, the feeling's just different from what i've been thru with VJSG 05/06. well, the juniors (& grand-juniors. lol.) have kicked off (pun unintended.) their new season today with their first match at Farrer Park, against SRJC. congrats to them for the good win achieved today! hope they may carry forward with the champions' luck from last year. =)
even the place of the match today brings back, well, 'fond' memories. hahaha. the Farrer Park field was one of the 2 fields used during our first season in 2005 (i'm quite sure the pioneer seniors can recall this terribly well. lol.). and as far as i can remember, it was a very sandy place (read: lumps of sand across the field!!) with sparse grass, which would get waterlogged during rainy weather. hahah. terrible place to play. i certainly hope the conditions there have gotten better, or at the very least, have not gotten worse. that very field was also where i had scored my 2nd goal, in the last game of the season. =)
in other news, i found out in the newspaper on sunday that my idol, Flora Chan (Hong Kong actress), is pregnant!! like omg. sure comes as a pleasant surprise, but just as i'm looking forward to her new scheduled-to-be-filmed drama series with TVB (which is a rare collaboration now that she's not with TVB), news of her pregnancy comes with further news that she won't be able to continue with the filming hence. ah wells. at least there's sth to be happy abt. =)
a little bit abt my work...since san is so uptight abt me. hahaha. anyway, i conclude that i can't survive long-term in a bank office. lol. i've screwed up so many things alr and sometimes it can be quite bugging when colleagues generally assume my knowledge. hmmm. but i guess the pple here are still quite patient with me lah. thank goodness i'm only a temp staff. lol. =P otherwise, i can still cope with the workload. a bit overwhelming at times yet i'll get it done eventually so yea, can lah. jus get damn tired at the end of the day. hahah.
i realise i'm currently studying (driving theory), teaching (chinese) & working (at BNS) all at the same time. O.o like some wonderwoman like that. hahaha. well, tmr's just another workday.

hear ye, hear ye!
well, if you have been faithfully following my blogs either at blogspot or at livejournal, firstly thank you for dropping by. secondly, you might have noticed that there's been a sudden influx of posts at blogspot, while my lj frens might have noticed a couple of shuffles in their 'friends' page. no, there's nothing wrong with your computers. it's jus that i've been really busy the last couple of weeks so haven't had the time to sit down and type all my thoughts out (esp when so much has been going on so there's so much to say). yup, i've finally gotten down to putting up (pun unintended. lol.) all my posts. so for pple who have been bugging me to update my blog (*ehem* to a particular seow hwei san), have fun reading! on a side note, lj folks might wanna jus click the link to my lj so that it's easier to read everything. haha. =)
anyway, i know i've been rather down for the last few days also, which i think is pretty obvious in my backposts. but like what i said, they are backposts, and i'm currently feeling better alr, so if you're concerned, don't worry and thanks. =)
========================================
now on to my regular post. hee. went for musicfest yesterday with some of the 22nds. as with the school (council) tradition, musicfest was a blast and it was so much fun grooving to the show. there was a new category for MTVs this year, so it made the event more interesting and fun. but of cos, that meant that the event ended much later also. haha. =P well, at least it justifies the increased price of $12! hahaha. thank goodness i'm a council senior, if not ah, damn hard to get tickets one leh! many thanks to tiq for the hug and flowers! certainly brightened up my day. =)
upcoming council event: the 24th Students' Council Investiture!! so exciting! *whee*
