Happy Chinese New Year to all my friends!!! So fast another year has past...hai..feeling old already..haha...
Anyway popping in to let my friends know what I have been up to, since a lot of you are wondering what I have been doing lately...
Well I was very busy for the last month or so, busy helping my mom and also job hunting...
Been to a few interviews already, but so far none has turned up to be what I wanted..I don't know if it is my luck or what..I realised I have been drawn to a lot of wrong opportunities lately, as well as a lot of wrong people...It is kind of frustrating actually, and I admit that I wasn't in my best of mood these days. Maybe for the 1st time in my life, I seems to know what/who i really wanted, that is why the rest of the others turns out to be wrong..Honestly I don't know whether this is a good thing or not..because it sure led to a lot of disappointments..
Another thing I wanted to voice out here.. I am very sick of other people pinning their demands on me...I dunno is it because I did not make my feelings known clear enough, or just that they are purely insensitive. I thought I would try not to leave behind any hard feelings, but I guess sometimes one really got to be harsh to eliminate any further misunderstandings. I know this sounds selfish, but just because you needed me, it doesn't mean that I have to be there all the time. I have my own life too...I mean, if everyone does that then what is left of my life is just nothing but realising these endless expectations of others..which to me sounds really pathetic and sad..
Ok I know some of you might not understand what I am saying, but that's because I am not talking about you here (glad?)haha..nonetheless just let me rant lor..
Oh yea wanted to put this down but always forgot. ZT, I just want to let you know that I really appreciate all your help for staying up till wee hours of the night writing me a referee letter. It was very last min but u still manage to done up such a good report for me. Really can't thank you enough..You have given me so much guidance in my career search, and always there for me when I needed you..I hope our friendship will not change even though we are at different places now...anyway keep in touch and all the best for your career:)
Finally, I hope the "doggie" year will be a good and happy year for all my friends!!!!

Don't know why tonight suddenly thought of writing in this blog again....A lot of things happened lately, n i din have much time to do other things...let alone remembering that I have a blog.
For once, this weekend I didn't do much...guess I really needed the solitude and personal space to do some thinking. I wanted to think about where I want to go next...had a long talk with my parents just now...and I can say that I really learn to appreciate them much more now...they have helped me a lot, providing the support I need...I simply can't thank them enough.
Went to a funeral just now, went there to support a friend whose grandma just passed away. I guess somehow I can relate to her feelings, because me too have a grandma who stayed with me since I was born. What happened to my friend actually makes me treasure my grandma even more. Lately I have been contemplating the idea of bringing my grandma back to HK. She is pretty old now, and I am sure she missed the place so much. I didn't even know if her friends are still ard now, but I guess she will probably be less lonely there. However, that would mean that we may have to move back to HK together...I'm actually quite ok with the idea...just didn't know what my parents will think of it.
Growing up is really a stressful experience, no wonder ppl always say that students are always the most carefree and fortunate lot. Now I understand how true this is. Before graduation, all I have to worry abt is to study so as to make it through exams, and then what to do during vacations...but now...I have to worry abt money, worry abt career, worry abt family....
So for those of u out there still studying...plz treasure the time that u have now..for it'll probably be the best time of ur life!!!

ok ppl..i'm back..
haven been blogging for soooo long..reason being that I feel there's nothin much happening in my life now that's worth noting...
Had been job searching for almost a mth plus now..still haven found one...felt a little dishearted actually...have been complaining to some of my frens abt this, and all of them advise me to be more patient..well..I guess I am left with not much of a choice except to do wat they say n be PATIENT!!! I didn't want to just hop into any job that come by..I wanted my 1st job to be somethin that I like, somethin that gives me inspiration and helps me grow...To me, making the rt choice into entering a suitable job is the most impt factor, becoz it'll help to shape my entire career path in the future...So well, fussy i may be..but I do stand by my reasons..
The reason that i'm back to blogging is becoz I wanted to share somethin wonderful with all my frens...
Finally today I got a taste of wat it is to be a broadcaster!!!!haha..even if it is only a day..i treasure this experience so much..
For those of you who dun know me well enough may not know that it has always been my dream to be a broadcaster...I applied to the mediacorp news for so many times that I'm sure they get frustrated with me..but well, at last i got myself an audition today, and that's when I really got to know a bit more abt what it is really like to be a broadcaster...
As i was in the CNA studio doing my recording in front of the cameras and giant tvs..i really feel as if I am a broadcaster...haha...it is a really fun experience..but wasn't happy with my performance there though...i think i spoke too fast, and some of the words I mispronuonced...hai...but nvm...it is still a dream come true for me..even if it is only for a day...
And to all the frens out there who flooded my hp today with all the supporting msg..I juz wanna say thank you to all of u...hee...it doesn't matter if i get the job in the end or not...at least I had a gd experience and it made me realize how much ppl ard me cares for me...
thanks again all my dear frens:)

I can't believe that I actually lost my marketing text in sch yest..exam is round the corner and I've got nothin to refer to..All my notes are made in the book..which means that I'll have to spent close to 40 bucks to buy a new one and read thro it ALL OVER AGAIN!!! It's only abt 2 weeks to exam, and that is an open book exam...Oh man, I can't believe my luck!!!
It's been another busy and stressful week for me..I had so much to do with so little time..this sem was really bad for me. I had no time to catchup with my readings and tutorials becoz everyday I had to attend lesson after lesson..
I haven been so grumpy for a long time..And I'm not exactly feelin the best...
So..argh...hopefully all these will be over soon!!!!

I went for the audition for Channel News Asia..but din got in because I was so nervous with all the tv crews and the "big giant" camera in front of me..I went on mumbling for 1 min without knowing what I was talking abt...n guess who i saw that day??? Benedict Goh was in the queue in front of me..he went for the audition too...I wonder if he got in...anyway he's not that cute afterall, he looked soooo different fr how he looked on camera..to think that I actually thought he was cute when watching Growing Up...
School was really busy nowadays..I had 2 papers, 1 project and 1 presentation due next week...oh man...I sat in front of my pc for more than 12 hrs these 2 days..hopefully all these will end soon..I haven even had time to start revising for exams..and it's juz abt 2 weeks away..how scary..
But really looking forward to goin back to HK after my exams..I already told my dad that I wanted to buy a 1-way ticket..so I can stay as long as I want!!!! And I really missed Bona..muz catch up with her when I get back..too bad Fion is in Aust..if not the 3 of us can hang out..it's goin to be so fun...
Ok so that's abt it..plz dun complain if I MIA again..haha..it juz shows that I'm doin some serious studying..=P

Let me update what i've been up to recently:
- I worked as helpers at the NUS open hse last sat..It was super crowded but fun..n to my surprise I saw my cousin there, n talked to him for awhile..
- Mon I went for an interview at Phillips capital..it wasn't much of a formal interview..juz go there n take an aptitude test and play a "cash flow" game...i personally enjoyed the game..haha...din know interview can be so fun...but they say after our exams will call us back for a second interview, and this time will be a formal one..so maybe can't go back to HK immed after my exams...Actually I din intend to work there unless they have a position ava in the PR dept, but I won't put my hopes high, coz I think they r mainly hiring investment planner or somethin along that line...
- I've been helping the red cross in their fund raising activity by selling ice cream in sch!!!!haha...I volunteered coz I wan to have more things to put in to my resume..n it turns out to be quite fun too...The person in charge actually asked me to help out tml n fri at sci also...although I really wan to go but can't la...it's too tiring for me...I've got so much to do with so little time...so can only hope that they'll raise enough funds for their vietnam trip..friends if u guys walk pass the booth plz kindly buy k???hehe...
- woo the list like non-exhausable..anyway lastly i also applied for internships at Grand Hyatt hotel, and the Information Communication Federation...currently still waiting for their reply..hopefully can get in..but that will mean more interviews to go!!!!
Ok..so that's abt it..I can't believe I did so much in juz one week...haha...I feel like I've already graduated..haven touch my readings AT ALL....no time to study these days..hai...think i better set my focus right..
Anyway next week I still have one more interview to go..n I'm still debating if I should try out the audition at Channel News Asia...Will update again..:-)
