The Cat and the Letter


Okay now lets talk about some nitty gritties.

THE CAT
I have befriended a New Friend!!! Finally someone i can talk to about anything in the whole wide world without having to fear that she will be a trumpet and let out all that i have told her. She's a cat who lives in Holland Drive and I have given her the name of "Lucky". I know that is like soooo Britney Spears but hey! She does get lucky when she meets me cos im feeding her cat food each time i see her! Plus the fact she is Soooo adorable, she should be a lucky cat! Everytime i see her my heart just melts. Dunno whether i should do the ultimate no-no which is to bring her back home. I do feel a very strong affinity with her though.

Here's the description of her:
-A brown, black and white furred cat
-Very alive and big black eyes
-Average weight, neither skinny nor fat

Here's how we met:
I was feeling very down after The Shoe Incident and was going to the Ocbc bank to do some transfer of money when i saw this cat sitting by herself in the back alley.
So being a nut (as ive always been), i started to talk to her about the Shoe Incident.
To my utter surprise, she listened and never turned away or walked off!! I dunno whether she's really listening or just stoning away but what she did really touched my heart at that moment.
Then when i have finished talking to her, i told her to "take care and i have to be on my way", she started following me. That just freaked me out.
So i went into the 7-11 nearby to grab some catfood for her.
when i came out she was behind a tree, fiddling with a branch. I said "hey! Come here." and she sprung up and became very excited and started meowing away.

I opened up the can food and she started to eat away happily. Thats when i decided to call her LUCKY.

THE LETTER

Just got back from a bad akl flight, took some time to recuperate from the Shoe Incident and thought that i will never go back akl again (if they give me the flight then ill give it away!!). To my horror, when the control called to tell me im going back to akl again (im on standby), i nearly fainted! One can never declare something too early isnt it? I give up struggling... Will let fate leads me where i should be...

Then on this groggy thu morning, i did the usual, checked in, then checked my mailbox as i still had some time before the briefing.
Now i have this funny habit ie i will flap open my mailbox window and peep inside to see if there's anything worth opening the mailbox. It when i saw a piece of white paper that doesnt seem like a cof offer. Feeling very curious, i opened the mailbox and retrieved the letter. Its a subtle love letter! Hahaha! From a person i least expected.

He was my complex leader on the flight to cdg. I was really very surprised because he seemed so indifferent to me throughout the flight. We did not have any interaction at all in cdg as he didnt join us for the makan session and i did not meet him at all in cdg. Hmmm...Have i improved my job image? haha. Recently i have been experiencing some much ups and downs in my job. Sometimes there will be flights which i totally dig and there are flights which are horrible (the Witch and the Shoe flight).
One of the nicest compliments i have got from a fellow female colleague was "you are really very attractive" at the end of a Per flight. Tell you, at that moment, i really did feel like flying flying flying!
But there are moments that i feel like throwing in the towel and call it quits. Now the moment has arrived. The opportunity to do something that i really have passion in is in my hands.
Please visit me at my new work place! Ill be wearing a totally different set of uniform! :))



I've got it!

Finally! I have got the job offer that has been bothering me lots since March!
Dunno whether i should be happy or not. Cos if i take up this job, ill risk throwing away everything. But i really should have no fear right? Im so young, whats there to be afraid of? So i think i shall challenge myself and take up this offer. Ill work very very hard because its something that i have wanted so much for so long.

Im a gullible girl in this big big world





Im a gulible girl. I really am. Could there be a more gulible girl than me? Why am i feeding information to people about myself? Sigh. This is so wrong. Then people starts to use these information against me. I have to go through these over and over again. I always gets excited about things and starts telling people way too much.

Im really disappointed by what Adeline * has did to me. I treated her like a friend, some one whom i learnt piano from, some one whom i confide during free time, to talk about everything under the sun because there is no common friend among us and we are from totally different industries.
Then one fine day, the betrayal came. She told everything ive told her to her bf. Now the bf knows so much about me, he used all these info on me. He tries to hard-sell me insurance (expecting to close the deal the very 1st time we meet!!). He knows alot about me and has prepared a comprehensive policy for me. I felt so uneasy. He also appeared in shirt and tie! OMG. We are like so relaxed. Cant he Match The Mood?

Big Big Sigh.. Why? Why u do this to me, Adeline? Do u know what u are doing is jeopardising our student-teacher-friend relationship? I cant bring myself to tell u anything in the future.
The very 1st time i meet ur bf, he already tried to sell me not one but a few insurance. Do u think he should put in more effort? Maybe he really shouldnt dive in straight. We can be friends first, meet a few times casually before even going into this taboo topic. Maybe i wont feel so taken aback. You have totally disappointed me u know? And seriously, he really doesnt need to come in shirt and tie. Its so off with the surrounding.

After this saga, i know i cant even trust people around me!!!!
Sad isnt it?

Bad Week for me :_<


Sigh..... Actually when i started this blog, i told myself that this blog will talk about nothing except good things. I guess life couldnt be that smooth sailing right? Even for people who seems faultless, like Lin Chiling. So im very sad to say this week has been a very bad week for me.

Everything doesnt seem smooth. Went for The Interview. Didnt seem to impress the manager much. Sigh. Why didnt i exaggerate? i really should. Sometimes honesty may not be the best policy. I hope ill get it..i hope the manager likes me..Its the last round of interview.. I have to get the job.

Then when i was still nursing the wounds of a supposedly disappointing interview, the Shoe incident had to happen. Am i really that unlucky? Im so sick of it sometimes. Whenever something happened, all people do is to write reports to cover their own asses. Reports and reports and more reports!!!
Why???? Ah!! Its so frustrating. I really have to get out of this place. Its definitely an occupational mismatch!

Maybelline Intense XXL mascara



Here's a great product I would like to introduce to everyone. Its called the Maybelline Intense XXL. It is a 2 sided mascara, one which is the white base and the other one is the colored side. It really does wonders to my eyes, making them come alive! Morever its really inexpensive. I think i bought it for $21.90 or less than that.

Previously I have tried Estee Lauder, Clinique, Shiseido, Lancome and even the Deja vu Fiberwig mascara (the one they are selling in Sasa). Lancome is good but its a little expensive and the Deja Vu really lengthens the lashes but after a while, say about a month, the product kinda lost its effectiveness. So i think maybelline is the best bet.Look at my eyes!

Hello World!


Hi. Hello. How do you do?
Ill never imagine that ill be doing this, starting my own blog. This is quite unlike of me, especially when im such a private person.
Actually im really wondering who will be reading this when there are like millions of blogs in the world. So this shall be my own little world. Where i can pen down my thoughts and share them with whoever is bothered to read my small little blog...

I just read the papers about this ex-stewardess who is now begging for money with her toddler at the Jurong MRT. My heart just went out for her. Really. But now with the news exposure, im sure everyone will start donating $ to her.

She flew for 7 years and had a life many girls at her time envy. However due to health reasons, she quit the job and somehow or other, she didn't work anymore. Then she met this guy who is doing odd job (!!!??!) and they fell in love instantly and got married shortly.
Hmmm. What happened to the guy i don't know. Or maybe i missed out that part of the news. But why so many stewardesses like garang guni (constance chee) or odd-job workers when they obviously knew that highly possibly these guys cant promise them a decent future?? Whats happening here? Its just so weird.

To friends who are out there drinking or smoking heavily, please take care of your health. You may have 10000000000 but health is like the "1" in front of this number. Without it everything is just 0. We may have many lofty ambitions in life but without health there's really nothing much that we can achieve. With that, i shall follow the old and golden advice of sleeping early tonight.

Nights!
