What a holiday!
For some reasons the december holiday always seems awfully short. Probably its because it is shorter, that is why it is so pack with events and more events! This is especially so with christmas and new year holidays, making it such a relax and enjoyable period... Then again, 'relax' seems to be the wrong word to use for the holiday turn out to be more tired than anticipated that the fatigue finally took its toll during the last couple of days.
First the holiday start off with Yan's Christmas Lunch Date! It was such a romatic lunch and how I wish I can have such meals every single day! haha! Nevermind, if I need to go donate my blood prior the meal. During the exam period, I have been looking forward to having an enjoyable relax meal!
Then we have our every first kite flying experience during the Christmas EVE! Lets have a longer string next time!
Soon after which is the "new year eve eat every where tour"! where for a long time, we count down to the new year at my very own home!
Afterwhich is the fun but draggy, yet interesting science centre CSI tour!
Next is the cake decorating experience straight before the genting experience. The malaysia is where we had our sunway, utama, and casino experiences! I must say, all of the experience are anything but relax. I got a feeling that the next time I go to genting again will be a long long time...
And last but not least is the BINTAN TRIP!! Actually the trip can be slightly better planned as it is afterall mj first time organising such trip for us. Nonetheless, the trip turn out to be exciting! slightly defeating the purpose of a 'laze ard doing nothing resort trip". According to the package, 2d1N trip inclusive of breakfast and dinner, 2 way transport cost abt $150 per pax. I might just come back soon whenever I want to do nothing, if possible.
Being in a holiday mood, people are always in their most relax mood and perhaps behave instinctively. This is when they do and say things without any much thoughts. As long as the external factor is uncomfortable, they will just find ways to remove such tension almost immediately with no second thoughts. I am of no difference. Once again, I fell into the prey of cognitive dissonance.
All these while, I am always very cautious on how I protray myself onto others and I must admit as I am quite concern on how others view me (Everyone is like this I suppose), yet sometimes it isnt as perfect as I hope it would be. Therefore, I find it quite unimaginable when I didnt restrain myself. Must be very chorlor...
OH yah... during my absence from Singapore, the horoscope changed!
And its something like this!

unknown... ...
Oh my.... there is a couple genuinely enjoyed visiting my page, and I have my doubts. Come on, this is an awfully boring blog, and I just could not write anything witty for a long long time. Not as if there was anything witty to begin with. Lets just say there are people who are able to organise their words quickly before writing it out, so quick that the next few sentences have already been structured nicely and grammartically in their mind before expressing them. I am definitely not one of such people. This is especially so when I occur to me that my writing skills have become even worst than before. Perhaps it is owing to technology that we type out the word and it auto correct.
Anyway, I really don't know how to start of this post. Its a strange feeling that I can't really pinpoint what it is. Or perhaps part of me just want to laze around doing nothing, yet part of me want to do something useful. I must say, this is afterall my last holiday as a student and I have my uncertainly on how to spend it. Before I realise it, I have spend more of the time relaxing and to behave in my most unrestrictive manner.
I remembered there was once a long time ago when I went back to my secondary school as an alumni student council to share with the sec 1 what to anticipate during their 4 yrs in the school. I said something like " the four years will be very short as you will meet friends that you can really show your true self. Beyond that, those people you will meet in the future most of the case will get close to you without showing their true self" ...
The funny thing is that I can not even show my true self to even those who are closest to me...

Perfect Fit!
I was just this close into getting a job!
Everything was good as I matched all the requirement they needed and we were discussing happily on how I would approach if I get a this job. It was only when they realised that I wasn't able to work immediately that the face changed and became quite disappointed that my unavailbility was overlooked.
I must say that I was quite confident of this interview even before the interview started and was thinking through how will live be if I got this interview. Nonetheless, during the 10 mins of wait I really cannot visualise how I will be like in such position and find it quite hard to see myself in engineering jobs. This is quite normal as I have not much real life exposual in the engineering field afterall.
This set me thinking straight after the interview.
1)Probably the only reason that alot of companies didnt call for an interview was simply because I cannot start immediately and they actually really want me.
2) Perhaps I should really be looking at other areas. Another job that is more reliable and consistent and more structured.... hmmm...

EAT THIS!!
Oh my! I really really really must blog this!
During this time of transition and changes, father did something that I have never seen him nor have I ever imagine doing...
He cooked dinner!!
And it includes vege, meat, fish and soup!!
I'm not sure if it is a blessing as everything was over when I returned home from dating and all the food items were placed nicely on the table...
Cos IF i seen him cooking, I might not want to consume anything.... But I guess it is more of a pity as NO ONE has ever witness him cooking, other than maggie mee, toasting some bread, boiling water... EVER...
Lets hope I dont start to get diahorrea later...

Fish out of Water
Experiencing a totally new environment can be fun and exciting. Nonetheless, there are times that we must really look before we plunge into a totally new situation. Looking for a career in a totally foreign field is one of such situation. There are people who are very adaptable and are able to adjust very quickly to situation, hence able to react accordingly, I must admit, I am not one of these people.
Unless, I am given ample time to mentally prepare myself and know what to expect, I will be just a fish out of water. 5 mins of such environment is just suffocating. Certainly, this boils down to the point that I am just too inexperience in dealing with things and people especially in that kind of field. Perhaps, I am not suitable in such area in the first place.
Maybe, I should just stick to the area that I am familar with and play with my strenghts.

Happy New Year 2011!
Before anyone realised, 2010 was over and 2011 has just arrived. Nonetheless, it is quite justifiable as for the first time, we ended our exams just before xma. And before we even have the chance to settle down our post exams uneasiness, the new year suddenly arrived!
This year we did not walk around aimlessly in the city, nor did we find ourselves in a squeezy situation, surrounding ourselves with strange odour and definitely not watching a late night movie or even to walk till the sun comes up.
This year it is something different, there is a plan and aim. Spent the entire day eating and trying out new food! something that we dont have the luxuary of during normal days. And probably for the first time in a long long while, someone has celebrated new year with people. Nevermind, if it is just a mini supper of lasagna.
2011 will be a year of changes and transitions. An experience that I last had during 2007 upon entering uni. With a new phase of life I created this blog to record down the things I had experience during this 4 years. But I guess, I am just too lazy to be creating another page to symbolise this transition.
In terms of family, there will be a major shift. Marriage and moving out here and there. Even when we are staying at the same place, it is still quite hard to be seeing one another in the first place. So ultimately, there isnt much difference I would say. Then again, it maybe because all these while we were staying together, we took things forgranted...In terms of career, it will be my transition from education to worklife. So I really hope everything goes well and smoothly!
Happy New Year Everybody!
