okay, i screwed up my first interview. sometimes i feel I'm not cut out for science/ research anymore. and i just the very nice professor has a point too, should i really go into something that I'm not sure i want to do for the rest of my life. which is good. its a reality check.

so hopefully, the marketing side would call me soon. sometimes i feel I'm so dispensable.

oh well, it was a good learning experience though.

met janelle and gracey and ray? damn extra. but anyway through all the stories, it was a good catchup session. i miss talking to them. janelle is the mentally strongest person i know. i doubt i can be like her. when time ticks on you, its damn scary.

i'm a cam whore no more.

janice. sometimes i think I'm too helpful, but it beats doing nothing.

its weird sending out resumes, but its exciting in the sense that i'm going to be in a totally new environment again. soon i hope. Singapore is as always so suffocating for me, i guess there are some aspects that I did not miss at all.

Just a gentle refresher of what i've been up to:sent ben off to brisbane. ah, my handsome boy. haha. weird that i have too many close guy friends for the comfort of onlookers. i guess people that understand me know what i'm like. but i miss ben dearly though, its rather weird not having him with all his navy nonsense and diving so he can't meet up. but i know that boy is the least of worries. and of course farzana, she never fails to impress me with her will and her plans, its awesome to have them in my life. my band buddies. and it was nice seeing ben's extended family once again.

also met up with my springfield peps:
marcus and ameily, azzah that twit is always missing. so depressed without her, she was supposed to share the good news with us. MISS AZZAH S. if you read this- REPLY MY SMSES! or else Mr Fa will find you. it was so awesome chatting up with ame since she was leaving for brisbane again (see how many times i say brisbane and UQ?- like 3 of my closest friends are there. how lovely).

After that met marcus again at ting xuan's birthday chalet. No pictures though because i was like the maid, which was actually better than catching up with people i don't want to talk to. and i had to keep grace company. after that marcus dropped gracey home then we went for impromptu geylang dao huay and a movie. so i reached home at 5am. it was nice talking for like 3 hours non stop. reminding ourselves of the stupid things we did in secondary school.

and of course my besties.
went island hopping for grace's birthday, though it was a damn hot and sticky day. it was so nice just chatting. sometimes i feel that with the right people i can talk for 1 whole day, but with some, its just empty. i'm thankful for them always being with me, it makes all the difference when i know that they are there.

and hock. :)
my smelly boy. all the way in brisbane, actually i'm quite proud of him, settling all these by himself, and being strong. i do hope that we can last all the way. COME ON JAN! its actually quite difficult even after 2 years. i have to tune my mind right, so that i can't miss him too much.
and last but not least, my lovelies back in aussie. i know they are quite upset that i ain't going back for convo, but i promised i'll be back, because they have truly made a difference in my life.

janice. wish me luck and all the willpower in the world.

blogger is not listening to me.

janice. is this a sign? haha.

and here the rough patch begins, the first month of new environments. it seems so familar yet so distant. and i hate this.

seriously trying to keep my cool and being as understanding as i can get. i know that since there is so much on his mind, he tends to get really easily irritable and grumpy. but i know it will work out.

and the convo (my dad is such a typical Singaporean man) and finding work is really making me explode. its so difficult when i know i can't complain to him since his mood is bad. hopefully things will get better when he settles into his house.

i need to find back my meaning in life, rather than rot at home doing non stop array of random things because people assume that i have nothing to do, and thus i have no sickening time to send out my resumes.

Singapore is just gross. heat is gross. so i cut off my hair. people on public transport gross.

janice. its just so stifling. once you've experienced the breeze you'll want more. too bad for me.

maybe i'm getting too old for blogging, it doesn't seem to click with me anymore. or maybe its just the hassle of uploading, editing, niap niap niap.

ah whatever.

so much has happened since i left the good old perth. been lamenting to the whole world how much i wanna go back, but Singapore is still home. though every single day i complain about the heat and the persistent humidity. i was complaining to hock why isn't there global cooling instead of warming.

its been so much fun and tears since i came back. from the perth "hoilday" with hock, to spending time at home, going out, cooking together, ubin trips, flea with min that ended with a downpour, birthdays with my besties, hock leaving for brisbane (ben on friday too) and way too much more.

*photos on fb. :)

i miss the perth people way too much. but i miss the one in brissy more. 17 sept i'll be back in Perth.

its time to find a job. moolas.
