Singapore: The ComplaiNation

It's the holiday season and more people are staying home clearing their leave.

Working in a consulting firm still got to handle complaints from the public. My PR skills is not top notch but the Libra side of me is very accommodating to cool their displeasures.

In Summary: S'poreans complaining lights too bright, roof too ugly and noisy works.They should close their eyes, cover ears and shut their mouth up.

The world may seem to come to an end.... So GET A LIFE.

Take a break and exciting plans for 2013

Work as usual is busy and gotten more tensions as 2012 is coming to an end.

This early planned getaway didn't turn out as planned so i board the plane alone and excited.

As i explore streets alone and walking round, i crave for more adventures.
2013 will be Mount Kinabalu trip and perhaps do Adam's peak(half the height of KK).

Hope all is well when i get back to work and more of God's strength to fight on.

Love the joy and pain of running

1 more week to Singapore Marathon.  My 4th Marathon and this will decide for me to go for 2013 Seoul Marathon.

2012 marks my record of 16 running events, 1 marathon, 5 half marathons and total of 289km.

Need to clear my stock of new running tops. Anyone wanna get and donate to my running fund?

Running season....

September... n high time October!

good game...

interesting how the situation turns out. precautions made, but time some how lowered the 'firewall".

at least my intuition sound the alarm.

oh well. life still goes on.

Fight strong, Ash. 

记得：自己开心就好

少了一个人的陪伴不要紧。

做个最特别最真实的自己
不伪装 不骄傲
不爽时会破口骂粗话 开心时会开怀大笑
想多疯狂就多疯狂
人家可以不喜欢我

但是我必须好好爱自己
为自己而活
活的精彩

Practicing archi life...

... not a bed of roses... not a total bed of thorns.

but now i'm stepping on thorns especially when i have no guidance in my work place.

喜欢...

喜欢有人疼，但怕有缘没份。也不知自己想要什么。

有些事，真的很突然。烦死，死后也把死烦活。

go sing sing!

方文山写的词，读了心好温暖，幸福。




你有要牵着一起，不说离别的他／她吗？

终于等到了

工作忙到满可怕。
每天就是这样－－》

但是！！！！！！





我人生的其中一关到了！
那晚感觉时间过得好奇妙。
好开心!!!

Run run run!

July onwards will be the start of running season in Singapore. Jurong Lake... Mizuno running series... North face ... Kinda excited bout the lineup this year. 

I'm still fresh from last week's KL Stand chart marathon and can't wait for the next race.
Just wanna get my mind off the unhappy crap and run my mind out. 

Stand chart SG registration opening this week. Am thinking to do 21 or back 42. 

How ar? Maybe 42 again to blank my mind out. :0

Mid summer day dream

Mid of 2012, I did my 1st major overseas run. Thou my timing got nothing to shout about, it's the biggest improvement of 20mins after all these years of running.

Just a weekend in KL felt So fruitful cuz we keep walking n walking n walking. Really thankful that a friend OK to go with me on this trip & he also got his PB. Almost podium wor.
Also thankful that I got no ankle -knee injuries! Can't wait for the Next run!

Work is still up to my neck chasing emails n making sure client side dun go after my head.

Strangely, I'm OK with the work pressure. Am I dreaming?

Fulfilling.

More good years ahead.

Being happy is an option

Heard this line from Chinese radio station... Which is pretty true.
Why keep digging sad things n harp on it. Won't be helping any situation as well.

My cute friend went back down under to finish off her studies... I also wanna fly off.

忙到累也累得爽

一转眼，我快毕业了！

在这短短的时间，我已经掉入工作的大海里。忙也要有点休闲娱乐。

今晚是星期五，有点不一样。 应该是失去一种感觉才会觉得好像好久没特地约女朋友一起出去。

吃着，聊着，笑着，像一群小女生。建筑圈子其实很小。我们的朋友好多都认识其他朋友。理工学院的朋友也认识大学的，总之大家是一起混的。

吃完在家附近的豆浆后，就像灰姑娘赶回家。路途上班经过的地方，记忆碎片慢慢地联合起来。这段记忆不知道该如何应付。

好幼稚。说说就数了吗？真的无话可表达内心的困扰。

我 的 心 不 是 公 車，
不 是 有 空 位 你 就 可 以 坐 下 來..

是失望吗？还是太突然，让我无法接受？一点同情也没有。 我应该是个傻瓜吧。有时我在笑自己是个大笑话。

最近在网络读了这段话：

就算全世界没人懂你，爱你，但你还有你自己，
还有过去难忘的回忆
难过的时候对自己笑一笑，告诉自己

“沒有什么大不了”

没什么啦。

Strictly business

Today, people on site dun look so friendly to me. Is it because I look fierce? 

:(  :S

Mid year only.... >_<

I'm feeling so sick from the emotional roller coaster ride.

Dunno how much more I can take. ╮(╯3╰)╭

Need a hug.  :(

Look front and charge!

Don't know to announce in gusto or whine myself away. Been swinging in and out of this two mood.

Positively, life got to go on. Still breathing, still moving. Over the years, i've learnt how to give thanks for every little thing that i have in my life. Not that i'm easily contended, i know that every small things and people should NOT be taken for granted.

Somehow, the chain of events has made me very tired and very disappointed. Still, i must stand up and live strong. To the people around me who have given me moral support in one way or the other.

Many thanks.

梦醒时分
李宗盛

你說你愛了不該愛的人 你的心中滿是傷痕

你說你犯了不該犯的錯 心中滿是悔恨

你說你嚐盡了生活的苦 找不到可以相信的人

你說你感到萬分沮喪 甚至開始懷疑人生

早知道傷心總是難免的 你又何苦一往情深

因為愛情總是難捨難分 何必在意那一點點溫存

要知道傷心總是難免的 在每一個夢醒時分

有些事情你現在不必問 有些人你永遠不必等

Head to toe, rejuvenate my broken soul

I notice I have a habit of buying footwear. That would be another story.

Retail therapy. This is an unhealthy habit. No choice. Going through another round.. so I got my loving colleague to go with me n watch me spend.

Within 2hours, an estimated damage of $300 done and I reached home a satisfied girl.

She bought me a cup of green tea ice cream before she left. I got so many things in hand,I just sat down & savour the cold dessert & watch people pass by.

keeeelll meeee?

i'm da cute rat!

Skeptic...

I wonder if handling a mountain of work helps,but I shall try.

I'm a skeptic of love-r/s and now this has plunged to a new depth.

It should be alright I guess. Most probably more runs ahead and more blog post to give everyone something lame to read.

Now the fact that minusing (-) someone to share my joy, dear readers will be my audience.
First I start off with something I saw ytd.

The aunty hang her laundry at the roof of multi storey car park!
My reaction to her...
*slow clap *

不管发生什么事， 一定要。。。

勇往直前! Fighto! \m/ 加油 加油！！！ ＋ve +ve +ve !!!!

到头来...

我还是哭。
为什么总是为别人着想，而让自己难受。
是不是因为自私的我，才会觉得伤心？
还是太容易相信，掉入心解？
曾经说过一起走，为什么是一个人？
叫我相信，也相信了。要有信心，也有了。
接下来是什么？
曾经。
-玲，好多问题的女孩- 再也不相信了

眼红...

怎样去开会？

我以为不会有这种感觉。

难道。。。

The good,the bad and the ugly

Always have all 3 occur at the same time. Dunno to celebrate or not.

Checkered Shirt

From: Know The Details

I always have a preference for checkered shirt. Be it formal or casual. *wink*

*Beep beep* Busy month ahead!

My dear rockstar reminded me that I have 2 runs this month. 2 separate runs but goodie bag collection on same weekend! 2 separate ends!
The reminder sort of knock sense into me that my weekends are getting more meaningful. Catching up with friends, run and most importantly praise Him with fellow brothers and sisters.
Am glad that there are people in my life worth spending time and talk to.
Lastly, happy mother's day to all courageous mothers who braved thru so much to bring life to earth n nurture them.
XOXO

生きている限り希望がある；命あっての物種

キミに振る光を 集めてあげたい すべて I for you 

Flip the table cloth and start anew

Project is over,lesser stress.
Cleaned up my room again. I think I've mentioned before that i find it therapeutic to clean n clear my room. Seeing new corners and spaces makes me feel fresh, baggage on my mind cleared.

Thou the past month has been a roller coaster for me (now still is ), I felt productive.

Felt so fresh like a grapefruit.

Flipping pages

3am. Wonder why I woke up at this weird hour. Was so tired few hours back.

Presentation is over.
Nights of overnight working and walking home at 6am is over.

Many things happened all together within a month that i didn't have time to fully recover myself.

Actually this turmoil within me is not over. Fuck this shit.

Turn on....

The Television!!!

Worrying seems like a natural occurring habit.  I wonder is it really a habit or is it in us.

Have to stop being a worry bean.

Good music to soothe your soul

Better Faster Stronger

Yay! i'm back on the shelves for dust collection! Actually poking fun of myself can be quite therapeutic. 

Is myself... and i don't give a damn what others think. Not like i harmed someone right? 

I think it is time to blast some music and run my ass off. If you see me rolling down the path deep, say hi or shout chio bu ok?

Can you handle the heat? 

Fun trip & the fats

went for a last minute trip with 5 other friends. Not close friends but is pretty fun knowing people for the 1st time.


Even after the trip, 2 ppl is jumping on LCHF bandwagon with me.


LCHF: Low carb High Fats diet to me is more like a lifestyle. Eat whatever i want, cut down on sugar cravings. Chocolate and ice cream is still my weakness.


Good read: http://www.dietdoctor.com/lchf


I shall post my meals pictures when i have the time. All logged up in my SD card. :p 

Got challenged

Happy Lunar New Year to all readers! May all prosper and progress!

Since i don't have much visiting, i took the chance to go Dairy Farm-Bukit Timah for a hike.

Taking the trail path is a pretty good challenge and i'm glad my trail shoes r put to good use.

Stumbled onto something cute:

:D

Shakespeare says...

"Never play with the feelings of others because you may win the game but the risk is that you will surely lose the person for a life time. "

2012- time for less eng eng cheng cheng

some kind soul just reminded me of my neglected space that is lingering in the world wide web accumulating virtual dust.

i tell u....i need inspiration to fill this kopitiam with lame ideas to keep ur "breaks" fun...

so..... was youtubing some old music of UK bands and found some interesting news.....


1. The band Beautiful South are evolved from the defunct group The Housemartins.

They bring you nonsensical love song like this. I would sing this song on my long bus journeys from school, fiddling with my pencil case.



2. The song The Ballad of Tom Jones by Space have a familiar female voice.



she's from Catatonia!
