See the circled part. Aiya, the picture is a bit blur. Sorry about the disgusting view of my toe... that picture was taken right after I came home from Raymond Lam's adventure and I haven't got the chance to clean the wound and my feet yet...

Ok, let's talk about the things I've gotten these days. Zoe passed me my benetint that I asked her to get for me when she was in US...



The Benetint and pocketpal that Da Jie got for me when she was in US... haha very nice to have friends to get me stuff from overseas. Good to have a stewardess as my Da Jie too! Da Jie even said that she's going to Taiwan again and she's going to find good face masks for me!




Need to kinda stock up my moisturiser and so went back to Clarins with Zoe. Wanted to get the free gift set because all the stuff inside is suitable for me but I missed it! And the new set is not suitable for me at all! The SA ended up giving me the free gift set for the upcoming one. And Zoe gave me the Benetint which I asked her to buy waaayyyy back when she was in USA for work and travel so in total that day I blew close to 200 bucks! Lucky I got Isetan vouchers so it's not as much! Phew!

The pouch given in the sample. Kinda cute I think... Now for the things inside...

There is this new thing called Clear Lotion Peeling whereby it can help to renew cells. Act like a toner, but got whitening effect. I haven't used it, but it SOUNDS good..

A new mask that I have gotten to remove impurities and prevent blemishes...

And I have gotten the sample from the Power to Try programme but I haven't got the chance to use it. Haven't been out for many days and so it seems like a little wasteful to open them..


And thanks Zoe for accompany me to buy my stuff! Friends forever!




By the way, I really missed Kylie's concert but she came very quietly to Sg but some lucky fans were there to see her! So lucky! Picture link here

Sigh, it is like what Cheyenne said is true. English stars' fans seems to be more rational than Chinese stars' fans =(

Miss my Da Jie cause she's been flying and on standbys on many days these weeks so couldn't meet her... I know she's dying too. Haha. Will meet soon! =)

Will talk about other stuff soon on the list. I always have this opening paragraph that I wanted to say whenever I was on the bus on the way home but I always never managed to put that down into words. Sigh...

Cheerios!

I got a lot of photos and things to blog about!

1. Propersity Restaurant?

Labels: Raymond Lam

After weeks of many sleep deprived nights, rushing deadlines and the endless anxiety of preparing for presentations, I finally collapsed with flu.

It's always like that. I always only get sick when I relaxed myself slightly after the peak busy period. Shucks, I have a lot to blog about leh but now I got no mood and energy to blog about it... Shall do it soon..

Da jie, think I can't meet u this week leh. I don't want to pass u the virus! Sorry! Shall arrange again after my exams ok?

Cheerios.

I am officially left with:

1. 1 week of school
2. 1 finance quiz
3. 1 reading week for...
4. 1 utterly stupidly ridiculous useless exam paper
5. 2 marketing presentations

That's it. When all these are over, I am done. It's a little sad, but I guess it's time to move on...

Anyway, the finance quiz is killing me again lah. I don't know why I have a harder time with this module than the investment analysis module. I mean, the IA module is famous for being one of the hardest modules around... and financial markets are one of those can-manage module. But so far I struggled most for this module lah... it's weird! Plus, now I am dealing with deriatives... I mean, I am slightly better at deriatives than bonds ( it's weird also), but all the terms are making me confused again.

Short, long, short, long, short, long... then call, put, call, put, call, put.... then combine to become short call long put, short put long call... wah liao. I can feel my brain twisting itself to figure things out at times lah. Think I am going to mutter like a crazy bitch during the quiz to sort my thoughts... I am going to sound like I was reciting riddles...

Finding a job now is hard. I wish Lehman Brothers would just hang on for like another 6 months, or after I found a job then went bankrupt... It's very hard also on me, because I think all my life in school, I have never been rejected by any schools yet for all I have applied (albeit because I know where my calibre is, but those are good schools in any sense). Now, it's rejections after rejections... or no replies after no replies... it takes a while to get used to. Sigh... it's a sad sad world.

I have a temporary backup plan if I really cannot find a job, but I hope I dun have to use it. Or at least, I hope to delay it. Anyway, the plan is not finalised yet, so nothing is cast into stone yet...

Anyway, that time after my talk with XY about my previous post, he told me that it was a petty thing I was hung up on. HUH!!?? Albeit he doesn't know the full story (I did not tell him that), I realised that it was kind of petty, but the anger comes from many petty matters adding up. But still, I don't want to be petty at all, so I am going to try to let it all go, so that I can be a better person.

Oh yah, I am badly in need for a footcream, because I am having very dry feet right now with cracked heels! Sigh...

Ok, post getting random. Think I shall get back to bed..

Cheerios.

It's just irritating and sad with the people I was surrounded with at times.

I know, I am not exactly the perfect person in the world as well. But it's just that I can't help feeling unhappy with things that happens around me. And I can't help but to bitch about it since I can't exactly tell the people how I feel. Can anyone understand that?

After I bitched about it here, I will then start feeling guilty and upset about what I had bitched, what I had said that can't be taken back, how I feel without considering others' feelings.

So yeah, u are asking, why then I started bitching about it in the first place?

BECAUSE I CAN'T HELP IT.

It makes me feel a teeny tiny bit of happiness and relief before the guilty and unhappiness sets in... and I like that feeling. It's better than feeling frustrated and cooped up with all the feelings inside all day long.

Here goes.

Ok, it's just upsetting to see how defensive people can get.

I mean, if u are right all the time, fine. But u are not. No one is! There are times whereby u are so wrong and u can't even stand people telling u that u are wrong. So what do u expect me to do? I go around the big damn bush trying to spare ur feelings to HINT that u MAY be slightly wrong, but ended up kena shoot by u again. It's really 好心没好报...

Have u guys seen defensive people? Like REALLY DEFENSIVE? It is like they want to protect their precious little heart from getting hurt and so they bite others and hurt them. It's awful! U hear them always confronting people left right and centre just because they feel that they are being hurt left right and centre...

And poor me are those that kena get hurt, because I rather spare the person's feelings than to retort back =(

It's no wonder that these people cannot keep friends.

And there are those who think they are know-it-all. Don't know who they are? It's those people who gives advice to people who doesn't need them. Come on! I have my own principles to follow, own ways to do my stuff. As long as I am happy, I am fine with it!

Then there are those stuborn people. Who REFUSES TO ADMIT THAT THEY MAY BE WRONG AFTER ALL. Who insist that they are right. Who refuses to step outside their wonderful world to see how the others feel at that point in time.

U combine meeting these people in a day.... u get the idea of how frustrated I am today.

And way too often, I met people who likes to shrink responsibility, especially in a team. Those people who thinks that "I have done enough" so the rest is up to u. I mean come on, if the others are unable to do it, HELP LAH. U won't die right?

I admired myself for keeping my mouth shut with all these people today. I mean, at any one point I can definitely explode and scream at that one person but I kept my cool.

I am like that. Don't ever EVER pissed me off. It's easy to piss me off, but to piss me off to that level whereby I need a huge amount of self control to shut myself up, u are in deep trouble.

What is exactly happening to the world and people these days? Why is it that there are people who always try to make the world a worse place to live in rather than happy? What is it with people who can't try to make others happy? What is it with people that they always want to make people and the people around him miserable????

I question myself this right now, and I have no answers. I simply don't understand....

As a complementary post to the previous one, there are people who are really ugly. And it's sad that they don't know about it...

Ok, I am in a foul mood right now. Don't even try to reason with me why my views are wrong ok. Leave that conversation to some other time or else I am sure going to bite ur head off with my rude comments. I am coming close to scold the f*** word on everything that I can use that word on.

And I missed da jie... I missed talking to her...

P.S. On a side note, I always believe that a fight is always at fault with the people involved in the fight. That is why I try not to get into a fight. Because it will make me from a person who is right to someone who may be at fault...

P.S. I just realised that my post these days are getting really emo... I don't know it's stress or just me growing up. But if it is the latter, I don't want to grow up!

Post Note

Talked to XY, snapped me out of it, and he said that defensive people has a huge ego, because they can't be told that they are wrong. So, the more defensive people are, the bigger their ego. I never thought of that theory before, so I LOVE THAT THEORY!!

It's just so sad, so sad that this has happened.

In case u guys didn't know, Jennifer Hudson's mother, brother and nephew were shot dead near their home a couple of days ago in Chicago. It's shockingly sad that something like this happened. Can u imagine her burying them all at the same time? It's painful... I really pity her, no matter how strong she is.

And in case u guys don't know, Jennifer Hudson was one of the finalist for American Idol before she went on to win Best Supporting Actress Oscar for Dreamgirls.

This case makes me realised that how people are so ugly at times to hurt people in more ways than one. People can hurts others in a small way through their words/ insults, or through biggie ways like shooting and killing someone. Is it a human nature, an inate thing for human's to hurt people? Maybe underneath it all, we all are barbaric. Without civilisation, we all are just going to be like wild animals, hurting each other in order to survive.

It's sad for me to view the world like that. I mean, I am usually not a negative person, I try to look on the bright sights and stuff, but I guess at times ugliness in people just can't hide itself underneath all the good things. This kind of things that are currently happening always wake me up to remind me that not all are good. I have to get back to reality and not caught up in this little happy world that I have created for myself.

Sighz, the world is in chaos now. Financial world and economy is going downhill-y crazy and food production world is going panicky crazy. And now with this, our civilisation world is going crazy! What's wrong man!

Sigh. Anyway, US presidential election is happening nov 4. I can't wait for that to happen. We all are in need for fresh ideas and fresh face to save the failing world we are in right now... Hope the Americans are not going to be so screwed up in their minds that they vote for the wrong person....

=(

P.S. Happy birthday to Linda and Mei Xing! And Happy halloween, if u are still happy after reading my post.
