    it was a good call for sissy to take me to annsiang during her lunch break, just when i was feeling superbly uninspired! seriously, i havent mentioned being uninspired so many times in such short span! its funny how visual i am. my mood brightens up when i see pretty things. anything. now my pores are oozing with creativity and the deadline's this weekend. hmmm how now?

    this weekend's the opening for BOB at FEP, with TLS! abbreviations much? haha

    why does it feel like its friday today?

    this is the picture hes hell proud of.
    and while i was there snapping pictures like a cliche proud mother, he um-chio! hahah!

    its sunday night again; every week this day i cant help feeling a tinge of emptiness even though we're still trotting on same soil. knowing he can't be with me 24/7 aches me a little. i'll be throwing tantrums at, nothing! but theres always friday nights to super look forward too.

    you'll be safe honey. your downfall = my happiness.
    his leg op will grant him at least a month's MC! -fingers crossed x 10000

    Schools been a little crazy lately. Finished a 4000 words group assignment on emotional intelligence. Did a paired work of 2000 words essay on defensive reasoning barriers organizational learning. i had to squeeze all this uninspiring modules this semester so i can enjoy my last two sems loving school still.

    anyways, thought this was really apt.

    meng's doctor googled on his leg ops procedures during his consultation.
    -
    there's always a trade-off in the good/bad things that happens. so wait it out a little. the big guy said im a golden monkey freed from my chains and i will be able to roam in and out of my cave freely.

    i think chinese-english direct translation sounds really funny.

    the last couple of days were just, uninspiring.
    i literally have to force myself to work.
    i have to meet 3 project/assignments deadlines just this week. i've already been through more than half of this semester yet i dont feel like anything's registered in my head.
    and again, i did damage to the car. grrrr

    need. that. little. bit. of. zest.

    very unhealthy that ive been travelling a lot lately, and live my everydays pining more vacations. Kota Kinabalu coming in 2 weeks! :)

    life lessons
    Monday, October 19, 2009, 11:48 AM

    no idea how one can learn so much over a short weekend. life lessons, to be precise. swollen eyes from 2 nights of crying aloud is so not funny. now my mood is just so, dull.

    can i be a better person/daughter/lover/friend all in one without being cornered? suddenly it hit me that all that has happened were simply consequences of my own actions. i need anger management and stop losing all my senses when blood rushes to my head.

    i got back from a morning flight on saturday. this was one of the more fruitful trips ive had and no want to open credit card bills. major black hole in the pockets.

    ive cleared the extra bedroom at the back of my house to store all my goods and a home photography studio. cos going to the studio for shoots are really not cheap. and what best to have it at my own home without having to load my stocks from places to places. oh and it rock that i dont have to lug 60+ pairs of shoes around to pair them with different outfits. now thats something that i really look forward to. my loot will also be in far east plaza by nov too.

    time to be consistent now kayly.

    now that ive incorporated Big Image Group as a full fledged company, i need to work extremely hard, but smart. truth be told, im kinda of a lost sheep now. my consolation? im not that bad reading maps. i'll find my way out.

    dearest team
    Thursday, October 1, 2009, 12:07 AM

    the day is finally here. although the smell of freedom is so.. liberating, i still cannot believe i actually left in tears. i dont say i love my job, but i have grown so fond of my colleagues, my boss and my customers. just the people. leaving my routine of my past 18months feels as though im losing a part of me :(

    but, its all for a good cause. if not for my departure (albeit a two long months drag), i really wouldnt have known the footprints i have left on these people. and the gestures from everyone and those from other divisions, is a huge contributor for the little wet trails. sobss

    i dont quite know how im feeling now.
    i'd need to return for a couple of a days in the coming weeks - dread to go back to the tedious tasks or excited to see the familiar faces, really dont know.

    i know ive been lucky. for the experiences and the remuneration a mere dip grad could have.
    just, absolutely very thankful. sigh. fond/bad memories. i really cant handle goodbyes well :(
    now need to live with a perk-less life. think F1 rocks with LG; that was fun haha

    moving forward, am also tres excited for actualizing my blueprints in time to come
    wish me luck people.

    and i wish the rest of them all the happiness and success they deserve.
    LG Mobile i wish we can achieve our goal of a double digit market share. we've done it before and im sure you can do it again :)

    with a lot of love, kayly.

    the stars has written that Sept09 is going to be a make or break month.
    and because Oct marks a very new beginning to my career, i thought sept wouldnt be so bad.
    with 4 holidays lined up for the last quarter of 09, i have missed today's flight and had an airport frenzy of amazing race. quite laughable though.

    but looking on the brightside, a day's delay means i can pack more nice outfits and research on my itinerary more. hehe. till im back yalls :D

    blogspot has been champed over by the twitterbug, really.

    been trying to jailbreak the ipodtouch for the 98237263th time because ignorance kills. successfully broke away from bars but gei kiang, rejailbreak. (haha this reminds me of our credit card monopoly at tanjong rhu)

    anyways, 3 more weeks notice to go. everyday ive been told to reconsider.
    and now my credit card bills are also asking me to reconsider its not funny.

    10days in perth come sept.
    and another trip to the mainland for the trade show in oct!

    cant wait (less the empty pockets)

    a week more till the boy comes home :)
    my walk in wardrobe should be done by then. woohoo~!

    imma little shocked that i last blogged and twitted 26 days ago! omg to drifting away from the www.

    anyways, just to hang on to 18 days without the boy, a month till i become DOO and a little little while more to achieving short-term goals. haha. oh, melsie is leaving us on national day's eve :(

    sometimes it still feels a little surreal that the person lying next to me, breathing in my face is, him. it still surprises me of the little (and odd) antics he has and the attention he gets whenever, wherever. a tinge of sting when random (female) drive-passers waves to him in the neighbouring cars. hmmms. my very short fuse saw me bordering along hate vs love. but at the end of the rainbow lies a huuge shiny treasure chest.

    i never saw the end of a rainbow.

    so the BFF is back and gone again. this will be the longest i'd do without knowing when i can see her again.

    melsies 21st pics is still unloaded in my memory card.

    the boy has been painting my new house whilst i battle at work. shifting starts next week and i have no him to help. the parents tells me i should stop being so dependent on him.

    the car is giving problems again.

    we've finally completed a 25 pages report in 93846739 hours.

    i ate something at every hour's interval.

    -
    this is a pent-up let out of going a month without twittering/blogging. haha! back to bed.
    a lot of love.

    i know i shouldnt be complaining but, I AM SO FRIGGIN WORN OUT!
    i wanted to list out the things that ive been doing or currently oustanding on my to-dos but i dont know where to start really.

    the first thing upon my adulthood was, to get a credit card.
    and now that i have two, my friends think its going to be the death of me.
    i BEG to differ. i have (smirks!) passed on the shopaholic streak in me to PTT and boy am i proud to announce that ive ONLY bought a pair of shoe this weekend! :D
    while she on the other hand, have been going to way to many sales than she should.

    i saw 2 ex colleagues that day and i am filled with envy that their life is no longer as supressed. i am happy for them. and this will serve as a gentle reminder for myself, too.

    my fuse has been extremely short lately. the one who suffers the most from this shortfall is of course the boy. sometimes i think i do not deserve someone who can receive all this shit from me and still i come home to find surprises like booby traps, at the expense of him getting in trouble with his captains. i am extremely grateful. for him, i can become the better person. from him, ive learnt that love is really selfless. <3

    i cant wait for september to come.

    whats written
    Wednesday, June 17, 2009, 12:03 AM


    i was told, that at times when i feel like losing my grip, i need to chant the make-myself-feel-better mantra. so much so that i think its a trap to the deluded.

    and so i took an afternoon lunchhours to ask whats written in for me. okay they said i have to ask a close-ended question so it was a yes-no answer. guess what the big guys answered..
    "why do you fret seeking for what will soon become yours". and this, i saw light at the end of tunnel.

    i am still holding on, for the monetary gains. my heart is out there, my mind is else where. but i never stopped trying to gather twigs for my nest. this IS going to be mine :)

    anyways, a couple of weeks ago i mass sent a text to all my MK0503 loved ones that PEST analysis SWOT analysis and all that load is too familiar to me, but it feels weird not having them around. i miss them much :(
    lucky for me, i am in love with my course (as un-hardworking as i am compared to my peers) and the boy who is my biceps pumping pillar :)

    i wish that age is just a number. i wish that age doesnt hinder the things i know i am capable of.

    days of teh botol
    Monday, June 8, 2009, 11:06 PM

    i am back, with the ultimate weight gain (think indo mie, bakso, bak mie, murtabak, a&w, krispy kreme, ayam penyet, nasi padang yada yada). how not to?

    today, i have 5 persons telling me that ive got the chubs.
    doesnt help when sams bet with me is none of any enticing factor.

    pictures up at facebook wokays.
    i have subconsciously lost myself to busy schedules and lost my blogging mojo to the webs of the internet. i shall jog the time i spend making collages. i traded my contacts for my specs and my hair to winda's scissors. the deciding factor that made me realized i lost my vainity is when i was too lazy to photoshop my arms/thighs/zits away for all my collages/photos.

    again i say it, again. i love these people. schmuck!
