i've been suffering from insomnia for the past 3 weeks. I either can't get to sleep even though I lie down on my bed by 12am or will wake up in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep for nuts. i think too much. i worry too much. so many thoughts running through my head as i'm awake, preventing me from resting in peace. the aftermath is horrid. internal organs feel like their all topsy turvy and weirdly wired. sleeping pills may come in handy.
for the record, i haven't slept for FOUR DAYS. i don't even catch a wink during the day and have been on 2 days MC. i wenta work 2dae, cauz i managed to catch some sleep last night.
IA has been great. the environment in Infineum is pretty fab. lotsa young engineers to make you feel that you're still very young (ogays i'm talking as though i'm older than em, their all in their mid 20s). my supervisor plus older engineers are super funny uncles who enjoy gossiping and LOL. regular free lunches and snacks :D one of the young engineer is also damn helpful and nicee cauz we gotta work closely on the same project. i think he'll go crazy with the endless questions from me! my supervisor's superb too. i really hope i will have a great experience here. i feel i'm learning lotsa stuff and am very intrigued by the happenings around the chemical plant and workplace. i hope everything goes well and hope that i'll stop worrying bout work too ((:
my supervisor's good fren just treated us to boon tong kee chicken rice today. zomg, its so good. he got it delivered to jurong island. like how nice is dat :D
i'm gonna go bathe and take my medicine to get me all drowsy. I know God will gimme good rest tonight ((:

SINGAPORE : Two men have died after an industrial accident at Chemicals Specialities on Jurong Island on Saturday.
The incident happened at about 11am.
Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) personnel said the roof of a cylindrical tank had blown off as a result of the accident.
The cylindrical tank contained chemicals used in the manufacturing of brake fluids.
The Manpower Ministry said its preliminary findings reveal that the Malaysian workers were installing piping to various tanks when one of the tanks exploded.
The Ministry has instructed Chemical Specialties to stop all installation works on the plant.
Investigations by the Manpower Ministry and SCDF are ongoing. - CNA/ms

when will it be?when will i actually be less anti-social? i guess most ppl will tink i'm a pretty sociable person. but i know many will have the first impression that i'm a ice queen too. well if someone takes the initiative to know me, then i will reciprocate. if not i won't really make the effort to know you. not that i don't care, but to be honest, i don't dare or let's just say, shy. hmmm maybe. those who know me well enough will know i'm actually quite a closed up person and don't open up to ppl that easily. i'm kinda trying to work on that, cauz its hindering my work for my IA. I need to be more proactive. need to ask for help, ask more questions, be more friendly so that I can get help readily and well... just open up more to ppl. and maybe get that social/PR thing going. i never realised i was like this till now. i really hope my IA goes well. i'm starting to feel the pressure to perform to my max potential. i need sleep. i need to recover from my flu.
needs a stronger heart. needs to be less distracted
pulling my feet as i move along.

dreading the start of IA.2dae's the 2nd day of IA. FYI if ur don't know, my IA location is at JURONG ISLAND. gotta pass through jurong island checkpoint and exxonmobil security checkpoint. zzz )): 2dae i was late for work for holy cow 1 hour. missed the Infineum bus so i cabbed to Jurong Island checkpoint & hopped onto the exxonmobil bus. at least my supervisor is nice. lol, he reached work later than me! haha!
boss is gonna treat us to lunch at Jumbo steamboat @ vivocity 2mr ((: yayy! not to mention, Wednesdays are half days for all of us there :D
sigh,i kinda miss hall 6 now. i've moved outa hall alr, travel baq to visit some hall ppl occasionally... initially i was eggcited bout IA, considering the fact that i won't have any exams & assignments to worry about.. but i'm starting to dread work. it will be so routine, a every day chore, will this be my everyday life in the future? a 45 minute journey from jurong east to jurong island?? oh, but the food is dirt cheap & yummy! that's a PLUS point since i can't live w/o food. HEE. hmmm, i shall rethink and reflect on my future career path.
anyway, i'm pretty upset about the softball match between hall 7. we were definitely better since we let them walk 7 while we scored 6. we would see ourselves in the finals if not for the walks given to em, considering we could hold them all the way till the end. freakkk. the taste of victory was that close. and history had to repeat itself again, just like last year. it was a pretty emotional moment for us year 3s after the match ended. we will not say "next year" again.
i will swim faster for 31st January. i miss everyone.
one of the December meet ups with the "disbanded" hall 6 gang. i rmb those times where we would just randomly crashed tim's or edo's room to chillax..a place where we could feel at ease and hang out. but ur ppl ain't staying in hall anymore. there's only yiling & me now. i'm really reminiscing 'bout the good old times.
tikus, timmy turban, edo.
xiu zee bee, stoofi, yiling, me.
can i really move on from here?
Blessed Christmas and Eggciting 2010!

just wanna thank every who made my
21st b'day so wonderful ((: i really appreciate all who were present and those who came early to help plus all the well wishes!! sorry if i didn't invite any of you, not that i didn't want to, but i decided to keep it small!
and to those who came, sorry if i didn't really plan any programmes b4 dat & sometimes ur just sat there 2 eat. wad i really wanted was to spend time with everyone and catch up with ur. but well, i wasn't exactly able to do so. heh. felt a lil silly initially. though i didn't really plan anything, i was fretting over my b'day. cauz lotsa ppl were gonna be late and i feel dat i'm jinxed, regarding b'days. so far, something bad will happen on my b'day. in 2005, i kinda spoilt my own surprise haha. and for instance in 2006, my camera got stolen & the day time was bleah. 2008's left me with some bad memories. but i really thank God for my family and friends whom have been so nice to me, people whom i treasure so much. i feel so blessed with all you wonderful people in my life, whom i can depend on.
especially to my
bestie ade, who has been there for me all these while. 15 years of friendship is something which can't be put into words. i thank God for placing you in my life, to be there for me, spending those impt dates with me. love u gal ((:
thank you so much everyone for making me very happy on my 21st. i really really appreciate it ((: <3<3<3 xoxo

4) caught bodyguards & assassins on boxing day with ade, shawn & tian ning
5) stoofi's fantabulous 21st

i really enjoyed my christmas this year. I spent christmas eve with yi ling at her aunty's crib. yi ling has 7 aunties and 1 uncle + her momsie. thats a really big family. her family is a really close knitted one and i gotta experience and receive the warmth and love from her aunties. they are so warm and hospitable that they make an "outsider" like me feel part of them. the food was fab too. this is my greatest gift this christmas, not in the form of a prezzie, but love and warmth from a friend and her relatives which cannot be measured by physical/monetary means ((:
so i spent christmas day at church in the morning, lunch at ade's and dinner at sydney's place with the sec 4d guys. i truly enjoyed this christmas and cannot be more thankful for all the love i have received from my friends ((:
countdown was at the usual, harry's bar @ holland v. a lil dimmy this year, mood seemed a lil less joyous & crazy but we still had fun doing crazy things. our group was overly noisy inside harry's, cheering like mad dogs and armed 100 party poopers. and there was a proposal! so sweet, a guy proposed to his gf <3<3<3 *heart melts. we played sparklers on the streets and moved around like mad ppl. people were dancing in the restaurants. some parts of holland v turned into outdoor clubs where tipsy people of different races where dancing tgt. it was a ((: sight. crazy! eh,we were crazy too. ((:
as the clock struck 12, lotsa thoughts went thru' my head. i dunno wad i was feeling feeling, but i felt a lil down & kinda emotional. 2009 swept past me in a whirl and there are lotsa memories that i have to leave behind. its meant to be a happy new year. hmmm. 2009 has been a rather tumultuous ride for me...
anyway, i am very thankful for each and every person who has been there for me, being my pillar of strength till the very end. what would i have done w/o your? HAHA. hello 2010, goodbye 2009.
and I NEED TO LOSE WEIGHT. dis is the 1st time in my life, some1 told me i can go to the gym to lose weight. i am traumatised and overwhelmed.
have you really learnt. have you really got IT. have you really understood.
