losing hope.

i am seriously lost. i don't know what went wrong. i don't know if i had done something wrong to upset you. if you really intend to infuriate me right from the start, congratulations. you did it. i conceded defeat. it's like i have been hit several times hard to the extent that i have grown numb to it. still, it bothers and hurts as much.

i really want to continue doing the things that i have mentioned. doing more than that. pleasing you. but i am losing hope. even the most normal friend would answer a 'yes' or 'no' to such a simple question. i still don't want to give up. i still choose to believe in a happy ending. i am still holding on, but i wonder how long can i hold on to it.

i hope that it can all work out in the end.

-you are the solution to my only problem

prawning!

finally. i get to try prawning.......it's been quite some time since i wanted to try it. haha i mean i did some fishing when i was just a kid,maybe i was still to young to understand the fun of fishing,but anyway went prawning with zul,nic on fri night,guo wei and his friends came to join us for awhile too...the whole experience was really great. you get to squeeze worms and cut chicken heart as baits,holding live prawns and of course feel the shiokness of catching a prawn.haha

prawning is not easy...it may seem easy at first,but besides some techniques,you got to be really patient. you got to know oh!when has the prawn bitten your bait or maybe like is it really biting it or is the prawn just playing with your bait? after some pulling and testing, then you got to slowly pull your rod up and then just jerk it up and ta-dah if you are swift enough,the prawn will be hooked and yay! it's prawn for dinner or supper haha!

prawning can actually tells how patient you are......i need to be patient towards a certain someone, i am going to train my patience through prawning and fishing....i need to be more patient haha. and yes! fishing! i am going to pick up fishing with zul and his friend after ocp. hahah i am turning uncle man,mahjong,prawning and fishing, what's next haha




-i really miss you=(

GTL!!!(GREAT TUTOR LAURENT)

another new job this week! it's like i am getting all sorts of jobs now, haha 3 different jobs in 2 weeks, tourguide, tele-surveyor and now TUTOR!(moreover all starts with a 'T') getting a tuition job is like so random and surprising, i was just talking to justin and then his sister was like asking me some bio questions. after teaching her, i just asked jokingly, hah so would you like tuition and then "TADAH!" i became her tutor starting from thurs=)

being a tutor is seriously way different from other jobs. i mean when you work part time in like restaurants, you only care about how long you work or maybe what's your pay like after working so much. i doubt part timers will really have this drive to deliver the best service or attitude, you just work for the money. but when you are working as a tutor, there's a responsibility of imparting the best to your student. i guess you are more motivated to teach not just academically but in all other aspects. i think having a student that you are responsible of really gives me the drive to ensure that she really learns. i find it a very meaningful job, being able to create an impact on someone's life. afterall, how she fares in her exams will determine what kind of path she will take in the future, therefore, you actually play quite a major role in someone's life when you are teaching.

i am just so motivated now. i have been reading my past bio and chem stuffs, haha i aim to be GTL( great tutorlaurent) hahah!!

-why don't you do your best?=)






-i will continue to be patient,trust me=)

meaningful week!

firstly, a reply to my previous post,i was JUST JOKING about gigolo,please relax guys!

anyway this has been a meaningful week for me. on tues, i went to back to working 2 of my previous jobs, tourguiding for Japanese students and tele-surveyor. i must say i have really lost touch on Japanese, it's been 6months since i really use them, somemore my group this time is so sianz, can't really communicate well with them. but still it's one of my best job and i love it. i enjoyed interacting with people from other countries, learning more about them, bringing them to various places like arab street and chinatown, sharing different cultures and customs. i also realized that i need to continue my Japanese real soon before i lose them all haha and after that tourguiding, i went back to acorn as a tele-surveyor, it's not that bad this time round since i calling people who wants to do survey, so minus off the nags and scoldings, it's still enjoyable except that it's so boring repeating the same questionnaire haha. but i seriously need money!!!

on thurs,chow's birthday celebrated along with tong and justin. our present was one of the best combination he has ever gotten in his life i guess, anyway grow up chow! you are 20 now! it's still okay for me to be childish until december hahaha.

went breaking-fast with my malay friends on fri, it's cool to see how their culture is so unique and special. i was told to fast with them anyway, it's really a great experience. the thing about fasting is not that you had to do with no food, it's about having to do with no water. i started at like 10am plus and all the way up to 1906 haha, since i was out the night before i went home to sleep in the morning,and my breath stinks as i wake up in the afternoon. i was so tempted to have a sip, but still i survived!=) broke-fast at some malay restaurant at upper chai chee, it's like those restaurant in m'sia where you can eat halal 'zhi char' at a reasonable price. it's really a wonderful experience.

one more interesting thing about this week is MAHJONG WEEK! i have been playing on thurs night, fri night and afternoon. i call this the MAHJONG CAMP! hahaha i am re-discovering the game, i have not been playing it for quite some time until recently, somehow my passion and love for mahjong has just come back,i began to see the magic and wonder in it. it's like a perfection of the oriental arts. i wonder how it is first started, every rules and playing styles just fit in perfectly. why are there 4 tiles for each card, so that when one 'pongs' the remaining one is useless, and sometimes 2 person can have the same 2 tiles and then waiting endlessly for the other one to throw it out. mahjong has in fact amazed not only asians, but caucasians from europe and even america, evolving into different styles yet the fundamental playing style is still the same. as you play on, the more you will learn. how the person discard will show what kind of tiles is he playing. i am loving it more and more, i just can't get enough of mahjong! i want to keep on playing mahjong! i LOVE mahjong!

seriously please ask me out for more mahjong! i am on a magical journey on rediscovering maj-a perfection of the oriental arts=)

-your smile keeps me warm

school hols!

strangely the holidays this sem doesn't feel like hols at all..... i don't even have the holiday mood to party or play or to even go around looking for jobs. i just know i have to go back to school and continue my major project which doesn't seems to end. but anyway at least there's something for me to look forward this time round, if it's not for OCP(overseas community project) i would have to spend my hols meaninglessly.

another thing why my hols sux, i have no money. i am utterly broke, i doubt i can even save enough for backpack Japan next year?HOW? teach me how to rob a bank,please! haha i seriously need a job that won't affect my studies and personal stuffs, come to think of it, i already got a job but i am just too sick and tired of that place,it's just so sianz and i have to check my watch constantly praying time to pass by faster. sometimes it's so busy that you can even wet your underwear,while sometimes it's so bored you can even play the 'beat that mosquito' game. i thought of working in a museum though, it would be cool, besides you can learn so much things in the museum, histories of various cultures and stuffs, but i doubt there's a part time job post over there, haiz, maybe i should just try my luck as a gigolo. LOL! just joking=)
