same same but different

a new year, a new start…. will be coming in exactly less than 12 hours.

so how was your 2009? good? great? or fantastic? mine sucks though. I can’t really recall anything but work work work and travel (also for work work work as well)… sucks big time huh… yeah I know! and what a ‘fine’ way to end my 2009 at the very renowned ‘fine’ city…

this morning while riding mrt to work, I was thinking if only I’m back in KL now. I would probably end up having starbucks session with the regulars or home-party at Kelvino’s. how I badly wish I’m back in town. I know…. I can do the same here in Singapore too but it’s just different even with the convenience of 24hours starbucks. frankly speaking, there’s quite a vast similarity between KL and Singapore and it doesn’t take long for me to adjust or adapt but it’s just different.

looking back at my last post for 2008, concluding 2008 was a busy year and now I’m officially to proclaim that 2009 is even worse for me. okok, I shall try to look at the positive side… busy is better than nothing to do rite… whatever... whether it’s 2008 or 2009 or 2010 or 20xx, it’s just another year with 12 months rite? it might be the same routine but it definitely has different anticipation. expectation for better, for more, for ‘value-added’… yes, I age along the years and so do my expectations too. I guess it’s a linear equation huh...

year counting up = age catching up = expectation keeping up

alrite, crap off and wish you guys a tremendous 2010 ahead ya…. my blog is 2 years old now! happy new year all!

hello Kitty!

this post is especially dedicated to one of my dear colleague in Singapore and her name is really Kitty. and that’s how we greet her every time….hello Kitty!

she has been in my working life since the last 2 years but we didn’t have the chance to work closely before. now that I’m posted to work in Singapore, the bond is slowly building up (in fact, it’s just over a month hehe...).

she’s been nicknamed ‘siao za bo’ (means crazy woman in hokkien) in office for her funny & foolish attitude. she’s always the one who cracks stupid jokes and laughs loudly which brings joy to the whole office (especially during this critically stressful period of time... *sigh...*)

lately we’ve been hanging out quite regularly, no matter if it’s in the office over late nite or during the lunch hour or weekend brunching or even mad warehouse sales shopping. it’s really fun to be around with her as she’s really very easy-going and hilarious. and guess what... we are both pisces too… no wonder we click in no time.

now, we are both famous in the office for cracking up sarcastic jokes and no one can defeats us when we both team up (you go, girls… haha…). sometimes we talk about the same thing at the same time and sometimes we just give eye signal and we will know what we are talking about. there was once we went shopping and scouting guys during lunch, we were practically commenting every single guy that pass by and crossing out ugly man... hahaha...

for sure that her presence makes my attachment in Singapore less torturous and fun filled. thanks for your company...

I’ll be home for Christmas...

you can count on me….

yes… after all the hassles of arrangement and coordinations, we finally had decided to go for a retreat during the xmas weekend break. you can read more at my updated post of ‘my travelogue…. (part II)’.

I really am so looking forward to this. first, is bcoz of the resort that we will be stay (it’s just pure therapeutic) and secondly, I can’t wait to get out of this ‘fine city’ that I’m currently located. and finally of coz, what’s more fun than hanging out with good ol’ friends for the jolly season.

see you guys soon… ciao for now…
