you know, sometimes you only realise how much you have missed out in someone else's life because you haven't seen them in ages.

met up with shafinah and dear lord, i haven't had so much to talk about with her.

janice. its time to catch up with old friends.

work has been "niap", shan't talk too much about it because it can be a pain and yet enduring at some times, and i've been relatively exhausted and midly sick. but i guess life can't be better. hubby has been sick too.

something to do is always better than nothing. and its something that i can learn so much from. like Re always says "think positively".

i heard 2 kids on the bus today. they seemed to be playing a "see who can close your eyes for the longest game"

and in the end they quarrelled.
you cheated. you opened your eyes first. i saw you open your eyes.

janice. i wonder how you can see with your eyes closed.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HUBBS!! SURPRISE!!
thanks to ben and kw for lending me a helping hand to get my present to him without him even suspecting! bought him an armani exchange shirt and thanks to marcus for shopping and trying it for me. :) the birthday boy is happy.

Met farz yesterday! and it reminded me how much i miss her, deep down. i really miss her, i miss her strong presence, no matter when whatever pulls me down, i always think of her. because she is just the most extraordinary person i know. really. it just amazes me, and i always feel so little beside her. she made me learn to see things in a different way. and her working style is so similar to mine. oh how i wish i can work with her. that would be literal work heaven.

janice. oh GOD! i have so many things to do with only 2 hands and 1 brain.

i feel quite upset no though work has been going on well. people that i've come to know and like here are all leaving/ left.

oh well. people come and go.

it seems in my workplace. i can never get used to anything. once i've gotten a hang of it, my boss will give me a new task or something more advanced. and its a chicken and egg thing.

janice. i will miss them

I was talking to one of the girls from a girls sec today, and she was telling me that her best friend was leaving to Brisbane for good today and she is so upset. and how when her family goes to Adelaide for hols she will fly over to visit her.

well. that really somehow made me think of the so many departures and arrivals of people in my life.

when we were young and restless, when money nothing meant more to us than asking our parents for it, when distance meant nothing that we could not overcome. It made me feel that she was so naive. but some where deep inside me, i've been her too. I've been there. But when you really get to knowing the hard facts that you have to pay for a few hundreds of air tickets, when your parents object, when there is actually so much nitty gritty stuff involved. You distant yourself. and you come to realise.

Hey, i can actually live without this person.

But i guess when you grow older, you tend to look at things so much differently, you open your mind out so much more. i'm glad i have. or else i'll be so upset now, because life is quite a pain without you.

quite is an understatement.

i like the smile on my parent's face when we give them their allowance.

Janice. it feels awesome to earn my own money.

went to the hippest place to fly kites. marina barrage. and surprise surprise, Singapore actually looks quite nice.

it was a awesomely hot day, which caused the photos to turn out very nice. but we very all super sticky after that. brought wewe along, that happy dog, thanks to Marcus who allowed her to ride his car.

but as always, the guys ended up doing the most work, from setting up the kites, attempting to fix them, buying new ones, flying them, attempting to catch the wind by running (yes RUNNING!! grace, Marcus and i were talking and suddenly an idiot was running towards us, and for a moment, we assumed it was some random idiot then it turns out it was Tingxuan with Janelle running and laughing behind him. GLAM!)

poor wewe. marcus is such a bully!

fixing the kites


tx being very sad. why can't my owl fly like the other kites? fly leh.
the happy dog= attention seeker= marcus lover.
love this shot= me chilling (slippers) while the guys are hard at work
















loved watching the sunset with my lovelies.
janice. i love my camera. who says i'm buying a new one?

a degree is just like a piece of art. to some that see its value; its a prized collection. to some that don't its just like another really expensive paper.

its all just a matter of perspective

janice. i need hand cream, eye cream and a cream for my brain.

i think i'm going to die from work.

"promotion with no pay rise" soon. how gross.

janice. i'm going home to enjoy myself. :) TGIAW (thank God its After Work)

Flour dust suspended in air is explosive. grain explosion.

janice. cool stuff. work harder.

ps: when people you haven't heard for in years start calling you. they either want something from you or they really miss you. i believe in the former.. and i seldom trust them.

i think i'm having a brain drain.

lets clean up. tidy up. and move on.

janice.

longchamp is here!

janice. random pictures

changing my blog address to

www.janicismismo.blogspot.com by the end of next week.

janice. kirke gave me that name.

just watched FAME! with Marcus last night. holy! it was the most awesome movie.

1) the cast are really multi talented. they all can either sing, dance or play an instrument and act. not to mention they all look pretty on screen
2) i love the production team's work. the music and changing from scenes and overlapping of music is whoo.
3) Asher Book's voice is OMG! if a guy actually sat down and played on the piano and sang with his heavenly voice to me. I'LL MARRY HIM!!
4) the female cast are also gorgeous, so the casting team really took lots of time to find their perfect cast.



well work has been good to me, though my voice is fairly gone while teaching at a primary school, with the P3s going insane. But at the end, they all said sorry to me for making so much noise. and the girls actually came up to HUG me. aww. and said if next year they have a course they only want to have me. how sweet is that? and they said i was pretty and perfect with Re laughed like nobody's business. fool!

janice. kids always have their way to make your heart melt.

L.O.V.E is explained as any of a number of emotions and experiences related to a sense of strong affection and attachment.

I had dinner with Re last night after work, and he was telling me about how God and Love can work in weird ways. Ok, my whole office is infiltrated with Christians besides Adi who is Malay. so anyway, the main reason why i dislike people who are strong believers is because they result EVERYTHING to be a work of God. which i greatly disagree. to me, things that CANNOT be explained are a result of God's work. which yet again is a subjective matter that i can't voice out at all or else i'll be sitting down with a pep talk for hours.

but why i was so fascinated with this story was because of the people involved.

well, there were these 2 people, who prayed to God for a partner. yet though they worked together, they never had any "feelings" for each other. so the guy, would write love letters to his future partner without anyone in mind. so one fine day, some how they realised they were meant for each other (work of God? you decide). And they started dating and he gave those letters to her and they realised that they were really meant for each other because the letters were relevant to her. So they began their courtship which finally ended at the altar. Not amazing? well, they shared their FIRST kiss at the altar. (which they BOTH agreed on)

Janice, the insane works of pure untainted love.

PS: they were an American couple.

might be changing my blog address soon.

not keeping this blog address at all.

updates soon.

janice. niap niap. wed's work = over and done!

went shopping yesterday, couldn't find anything yet. need some inspiration by the weekend. how gross its monday again. sort of felt that the week just ended and here it is AGAIN.

bought 2 tops for work yesterday, 1 from Forever 21 and the other from New Look in ion. ok, firstly the clothes are so similar to Topshop and Valleygirl. second ALL the sales staff are either from China or Philippines. okay, for a shop in orchard, please hire people that can speak english, they were seriously pissing me off, and yet they still judged me because i'm not some super awesome rich tai tai. ah, piss off man.

the boy got drunk on wine and fell ASLEEP during our phone conversation and forgot all about it the next morning. should have lied that he promised me tons of money. oh well. can't seem to be able to lie to him. drats he knows me too well.

okay. back to work. using a program called scribus to design our company folder. someone send me to design school please!

janice. i'm hungry and i just ate an apple. welcome to super random mondays.

shopping tmr though i'm on a tight budget! after i go run some errands and visit hock's grandma. can't believe his mummy bought me mooncakes cause i told her i bought them some. wao lao. i'm going to become super fatty gross shit after eating all that sugar and what not. i shall bring it to office or school on tuesday to share the "love"

sometimes i really have no idea how to behave, i have to have this persona in front of students, in front of my boss, in front of everyone else. sometimes i think i still behave like a kid. how gross. was helping CK with the physics paper. i think i have returned everything to my 'beloved' physics teacher in spf.
