Brand New 2016

Been so fast that 2015 (SG50) past by like a breeze. Can't believe we are now in 2016! And yes, one year older. (shrugs)

Somehow ever since my new duties started in October, everything seems to be going half smoothly. But right now am already getting the hang of it. Doing forex seems to be my thing! Am glad my boyfriend has been by my side during my difficult times for the past few months. I don't blame anyone but now i feel that i learnt even more. And now i am in Lenovo like 9 months?! Time really flies! Really can't wait to gain another 2 years experience in Lenovo. I wonder what's going to change in the next few months....
Finally my colleague whom is having maternity leave (freaking 6mths!) is finally back in february (i hope).
So i believe duties going to change again. (Sigh). I just hope for a better 2016.

Everyday seems to be like a surprise for me. I wonder if my boyfriend is going to propose to me this year. But waiting for him to buy me a new handphone is like....(can forget about it). Now waiting for the flat balloting results is a torture. It says mid-january will release results. But somehow its like keep you hanging mid-air. 2nd time balloting for flat...Somehow abit losing faith in the results due to failure in the first ballot for clementi (which make me cry like hell). Would love to get our love nest soon but i suppose everything have to leave to faith even though am unsure if chanting really helps. But i still continue my faith and chanting in my religion.

Another thing which i am anticipating is New Zealand trip which i haven't book but parents have decided on that destination. Hope 2016 will be good to me. Fingers crossed!

Kate

It's been 3 weeks (!!)

Just so many things happen within the last post thats i blogged.
As for work, shall not elaborate. Just hoping that it will be justified.
Am going to be bridesmaid for the first time for my cousin. Fun yet excited about it.
But vey sad that i will be missing out my bestfriend's wedding photoshoot. :(
Somehow now everybody around me seems to be getting married. I still haven't even got my desired flat.
Now am looking forward to my 2nd trip in November with my bestfriend to Hong Kong. Sounds surreal but it is actually happening. Our first time travelling together.

Will blog soon when i have time.

Loves,
Kate

Missing space.

WOW! It has been 3 freaking years since i have step into this blog. And i can't believed that i actually remember this blog? So many things changes ever since my last post in 2012 which is exactly when i officially graduated from university. And that also marks me entering into work life for the first time.

Throughout these 3 years, there has been alot of ups and downs in my life. Maybe i can start summarizing.

In 2013, i started working in Resorts World at Sentosa company after graduating. Officially my first permanent job with a pretty satisfying salary. Initially i couldn't find finance career so i decided to jump to accounts to give it a try even though it wasn't really my interest. After all i graduated from Banking & Finance. After being in accounts dept for a month, i got the opportunity to transfer to treasury dept. That is when after joining NDP 2013. Everything just came smoothly with good fortunes. It was also the first time that i contributed to Soka. Thus, i worked in treasury dept for over 1 year and 6 months.
However, i believed in karma. Somehow my practises in Buddhism began to slack. Karma came and hit me harsh. However, i picked up my buddhism practises immediately. I joined Byakuren and even became a district leader, hoping to contribute more to Soka. I also got to know my first boyfriend through friend's introduction. I even joined my first ever overseas half marathon, which is held in Shanghai Toray Marathon.Went along with my cousin and we stayed under the shelter of my another cousin's condo. Spectacular 7 days of holidays which are unforgettable.

In 2014, due to relocation in treasury, unfortunately i was one of them to be shifted back to accounts dept. I really hate the new director so badly that i feel like stabbing her at her back. However, i love my colleagues in both treasury and accounts dept. I have no idea why there is so many politics in RWS but i just don't really care. So i just worked and look for a new treasury job at the same time. Times are hard. I had to endure working something that i dislike for few months before i chanced upon a new job. I went to Japan with parents like finally as our last trip together to Taiwan was like 2-3 years ago? Due to good fortunes, we even managed to visit the highest station in Mt Fuji and even got to know another soka members in the tour group. Thus, we went to visit one of the Japan Kaikan through our nice tour leader's direction. That also marks my 8 days of holidays in central tokyo.

In May 2015, i officially left RWS and join Lenovo Singapore. I must say i am pretty satisified with their benefits and salary. After being in Lenovo for almost 4 months right now, i love my colleagues and the environment here. (:  It feels that i have worked in Lenovo for very long however i know i still have a long road to go. I must say i still miss some of my RWS colleagues but definitely not the job there. Until now i still go and visit the night shift security guard on and off to have a chat with her together with my boyfriend. This year i even went to Europe with my parents before i left RWS. It is also my dream to be able to finally get to such a far and beautiful island. Of course it also burnt quite a big hole in my pocket too. But i also bought my dream prada bag and wallet with a cheaper price than in s'pore. 2 weeks in Europe is really worth flying to.
2015 also marks the Golden Jubilee of Singapore birthday. It is also the year that mum joined NDP! Very happy that she is able to contribute to soka as well to s'pore.

I guess that marks the end of my summarisation. As for what i am anticipating in the next few months, i am looking forward to my boyfriend's 31st birthday which also happens to be our first staycation together. And also our 2nd Anniversary. How time flies!! I suppose the rest of the days would be as per normal. Hopefully the rest of the months will be smooth.

What is love?


Its been quick! October is ending soon! This means my birthday is coming! Not looking forward to it. This means ill be a year older! Boo. Realised i've attended 6 weeks of lessons ever since school started. I am left with 15 more weeks before the end of school! Sounds pretty fast but i must say its quite long when you look at the calender. Unfortunately, my appeal wasn't successful and i have tried to accept it unconditionally. Just want to graduate, get the degree cert & get a proper job. But i kind of like school life though. Thinking about working soon really makes me sick. But thinking about earning lots of money and buying the stuffs i want really excites me. Hopefully ill forget about him as well.

My final year has been stress enough though, trying to adapt to it. I am not working right now so i have been quite thrifty. However, i got too many november friends. This means ill be so broke when it comes to buying birthday present. I am excited and looking forward to 2 of my marathons: Great eastern 21km and standard chartered 42km! Its the first time GE organises 21km route & it will be my first time running 42km. Come to think of it, im quite lucky as these past 2 yrs my SC run is sponsored by my cousin. So i do not have to pay a single cent to run. Heh. Now i am training almost everyday that my legs is going to give way soon.

Now i am so obsessed with Jodi Picoult books. hmm. I miss NYC. The above picture that i uploaded is taken at the famous Times Square. I remembered we went strolling past midnight. Their shopping stores closing time was insane, like around 2am? I am only half done filtering the photos. I wonder if anybody is still reading my blog though. But ill definitely upload pictures consecutively.

I have decided to forget about the 2nd guy though. I think it wasn't worth thinking about it. I told my friends i do have dreams about myself getting proposed or married with a guy whom i didn't catch his face. Pretty weird but the proposal was quite romantic. If only...

Sometimes love isn't as simple as you think.

Second guy whom i locked my eyes on.

Third week of school! Kind of depressed, stress and frustrated thinking about it. Time flies too fast and i still haven't get the outcome of my appeal. This really really fucking sucks big time. I hate them, terribly. Paid so much yet i get this kind of service. All i can do is wait and wait. Its like waiting for the sun to drop, which is impossible. School has been good but i am not enjoying it cause it wasn't what i wanted. I have no idea what i am going to do if im really given this path. I shall wait for the outcome and see how it goes. JUST GIVE ME THE BLOODY APPEAL!!! Sorry.

Oh i have always been wanting to see him in school. And i finally got to see him last saturday during his break. Kind of get caught off by it, unprepared. So frantic, blushing and nervous. Well its my first anyway, that explains. But after that, i don't feel like seeing him anymore. I feel like forgetting him but i can't. But i am quite sure my feelings for him kind of subsided. Saw him the second time, but this time he didn't saw me. Cause i ran away from him. Spare me the awkwardness. But like my friend say, i should be brave and just walk past him. I will do it next time i get the chance. I'll let him know what he is losing. Now i know he is in the same class as my friends. Imagine i didn't change course, i will be seeing for another 6mths. Frankly speaking, i love my old course, not because of him. I don't even intend to change if it wasn't due to one of my modules.

Talking about him, i am in the same class as his friends. This sucks. During the first lesson, his friends saw me and just gave me this (O.O) big eyes stare. I was like what the heck?! I simply just ignore and sat. But i must say it is really pure coincidence. And so they begin to sit behind or 2 rows behind me on every lesson. I am quite sure they might mention about me to him though. Maybe?

I moved on to another guy. The guy whom i met in ntuc. He is working there on every sunday but i have no idea if he is working as part time or full time. He definitely looks like a student, thats for sure. But imagine if he is working there forever, i would definitely forget about him. I always go grocery shopping with my parents on sunday morning. So we kind of recognise each other by then. Last sunday i decided to be brave and steal a glance at him. I have no idea how the hell he know where i am standing. He just tilt his head up and look at me. So he caught me looking at him, i was so nervous that i decided to look away. However, we turn and look into each other's eyes the second time. This time, our eyes was locked for a few secs. Eye contact i must say. After that i looked away due to shyness. Mum asked me to ask the counter if the ham is chicken or pork. I heard his friend says "shes coming." I was too shy so i didnt ask him for help. Ended up my mum embarrassed me infront of them by saying out loud "why are you so shy? you like him? He's handsome?" I can't help it but to shy away from embarrassment. Seriously i hated my mum for that, at that moment. I am so sure he did heard that and i saw him tilting his head down, arranging the meats. In the end my dad went up to ask him. Nice speaking english he had. And mum never gave up. She asked me to buy chicken ham from them. Luckily he was serving other customers. So i grabbed the chance to ask his friend instead. He went to the loo and after im done, he was back. Kind of long scenario but yet funny. I must say i definitely leave a deep impression on him, so did he. I wonder whats his name, what is he doing and most importantly, is he single?

Everybody ask me how does he look like. Whenever i say he do wear black frame specs too. All their expression is the same. Shocking. Well, i can't help but admit i do like black frame specs boys, but it depends cause not all. But i must say the first time i saw him, i did look closely if he was that first guy. Abit of resemblance but sharper features. Face condition is the same. No curly hairs but flat. My liking of guys are kind of weird huh? Coming to the end of the week and im going to see him again. I wonder what will he do. Shy away from me or smile at me? I am not going to approach any guys from now on. Once bitten, twice shy. Or should i say twice hurt? And yes i did. I hope he won't be the third guy whos gonna hurt me. I am so sick of these. Growing to lose faith on guys. But of course, i don't want to stay single for my entire life. Just waiting for the right one.
