It’s been one week..

how time flies!
i have completed a week's training at work!
one more week and then we will be thrown out where work is already waiting for us!
well...
it's been 2 weeks since i left home.
and....i have been liking singapore ALOT!
so much to see and so much to do!
don't even know where to start!
it's just so nice and clean here.
and it's SAFE to take a cab home ALONE at night.
and people here are much friendlier too, service staff that is.
i just took a cab home just now from vivocity, where i went to watch Julie, Julia.
Nice show. touching, gonna go get the book, tomorrow i think + Time traveller's wife too!
anyway,...
the fare from vivo to my place was just 4.80, but i told him to make it 5.
lazy to dig for coins, and he was so nice about it.
wishing me a good weekend, a sincere thank you...
i am glad i made someone happy.
i did this once back in kl, i just received a grunt in reply. =.=
Also, i went to get my employment pass today,
the lady at the counter was SO pleasant!
instead of me asking her how was her day, she asked me instead!=D
and i realised i say thank you here more!
hmmmm…
anyway, enough rambling..
pictures!
My office building..
 
sometimes i feel like as though i am in Nothingham, where Quasimodo was. It just looks so gothic…
Someone mentioned Gotham city….worse..



Clarke Quay..

 
The Sky Garden at Vivo CIty!
it’s gonna be my fave spot, you can dine, romantic strolls!


Starcruise’s Star Libra!

and this is what i have been doing ever since i arrived!
And with ALLLLL the walking, my butt isn’t exactly growing smaller even tho i have stopped stuffing my face!
WHY?!

taking the plunge..

taken from here..

when i turned 25, i was upset at the fact that i am getting older, hitting the halfway mark to reaching the big THREE-O...
but now, as i am 5 months short of the next climb up the ladder to the big THREE-O, i realize that age is only just a number..
and a year older is indeed a year wiser from all the heartaches, trials and tribulations, happiness, and what nots...cos what doesn't break you only makes you stronger.
and i can attest to that, having semi-recovered from an incident that almost broke me.

i feel that now at 25 and half, my life has been kick started in a direction that i have always wanted it to be.
The wait may have been long and unclear, but it was worth the wait. Better now than later.
and while the journey ahead may be hazy now, but i am ready for the journey.
i can't say that i am completely ready, but i am ready to always challenge myself and get out of my comfort zone.
Breaking out of it can be daunting to a lot of ppl, heck it's scary for me too, but if you don't take the plunge, you will never know.

and that's what i am doing now exactly, taking the plunge.

Starting tomorrow, it's a whole new journey for me as i start my life in Singapore, alone for the first time in my life.
To those that i managed to meet up with, thank you for taking the time to come see me..
Thanks for the lunches, fun, drinks. goodies, and dinner!
to those that i did not manage to meet, i am sorry, but do keep in touch!

Right back what is wrong , We move along..

first of all, i know you read the post i intended you to read.
i am glad you did, cos you don't know the hurt and pain you caused me.
you may be hurting too, but you chose to dig that hole in the first place.
but now, genuinely, i am happy for you.
happy for you that you have found your happiness at last.
i am sorry if those words have hurt you, even though you have distanced yourself.
but i meant those words and i won't take it back.
however, it's time to move along now, pick up the pieces and refit the pieces of the puzzle.
and i hope one day, you would understand how i felt in those dark desolate days while you were happy.
i will try to understand you if you try to understand me.
pls understand that i did not mean to hate you intentionally, you made me.
but pls understand also that the hatred will be gone eventually and i wish you all the best and nothing more, hoping we don't ever cross paths again.
but if we do, i hope it's for all the right reasons and not the wrong ones, again.

even the skies cried..

as i drove outta Cyberjaya for the last time today,
looking back, the sky was dark…
i didn’t cry leaving, but the skies sure did…
maybe they miss my cheerfulness in Cyberjaya..
hahaha…

 

p/s: i think it’s time to revive Project 365 who seems to have taken a looooonngggggggg holiday. =)

i have learned...

I've Learned
by Omer B. Washington

---

I've learned that you cannot make someone love you.
All you can do is be someone who can be loved.
The rest is up to them.
I've learned that no matter how much I care,
some people just don't care back.
I've learned that it takes years to build up trust
and only seconds to destroy it.
I've learned that it's not what you have in your life
but who you have in your life that counts.
I've learned that you can get by on charm for about fifteen minutes.
After that, you'd better know something.

I've learned that you shouldn't compare yourself
to the best others can do,
but to the best you can do.
I've learned that it's not what happens to people,
It's what they do about it.
I've learned that no matter how thin you slide it,
there are always two sides.
I've learned that you should always have loved ones with loving words.
It may be the last time you'll see them.
I've learned that you can keep going
long after you think you can't.

I've learned that heroes are the people who do what has to be done
When it needs to be done,
regardless of the consequences.
I've learned that there are people who love you dearly,
but just don't know how to show it.
I've learned that sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry,
but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.
I've learned that true friendship continues to grow even over the longest distance.
Same goes for true love.
I've learned that just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to
doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have. 

I've learned that no matter how good a friend is,
they're going to hurt you every once in a while
and you must forgive them for that.
I've learned that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.
I've learned that no matter how bad your heart is broken,
the world doesn't stop for your grief.
I've learned that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are,
but we are responsible for who we become.
I've learned that just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other.
And just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do. 

I've learned that sometimes you have to put the individual
ahead of their actions.
I've learned that two people can look at the exact same thing
and see something totally different.
I've learned that no matter the consequences,
those who are honest with themselves go farther in life.
I've learned that your life can be changed in a matter of hours
by people who don't even know you.
I've learned that even when you think you have no more to give,
when a friend cries out to you,
you will find the strength to help.

I've learned that writing,
as well as talking,
can ease emotional pains.
I've learned that the people you care most about in life
are taken from you too soon.
I've learned that it's hard to determine where to draw the line between being nice
and not hurting people's feelings and standing up for what you believe.
I've learned to love
and be loved.
I've learned...
