i probably don't know myself as well as i thought. but if i don't, who does?
what happens when u want changes, but can't afford to bear the consequences? u stay the same. not because you choose it, but because you can't choose otherwise.
do not love someone you can live with, love someone you can't live without...

im so tired from all the cny visiting. went to uncle chai's godma's place on chu yi, and just got news yday that she's unconscious and hospitalized. fragility of life huh. can only hope for the best for her, that everything will turn out just fine. afterall she's alr 101 years of age, it's gonna be tough on her if she needs to be put under medication and all.
dad and mom have left for China, and now the limzhikai is the PR at my place. im glad he gets along well with my family (and Lex!) so there wasn't any issue w him staying over to accompany me. how things have changed from 5 years ago, when he got kicked out of my house. come to think of it, how did we even last for 5 years? some things dont change 5 years on. i still cant stand the sight of that particular ex of his, and the best part was to see her outside zouk on chu yi. fabulous start to a new year. its been so long all that drama should be over, but nope. when i see her my blood boils. whatever it is, it was just darn suay.
after working for a year and a half i am finally at the point of "looking forward to the next vacation/public holiday". never quite felt it when others told me such things, when i was still a uni student, rushing assignments and projects. now im in a constant rush for deadlines, campaigns, pitches, meetings. every single day is a challenge. challenge to wake up, challenge to rush to work, challenge to deal with unpleasant people, challenge to find cabs to meetings, challenge to stay awake during meetings... then the challenge to drag my ass back home. and the final challenge to fall asleep.
sort of influenced by many to go for one of these 'fortune telling' sessions. soon.. maybe then i will know if im on the right track. cos sometimes i doubt my own choices in life. oh well, who doesn't?

HELLO WORLD! i know i haven't blogged in eons. and it seems as if i died or smth. but i've just been way too busy to log in, type some crap, and then disappear into my pile of work again. well, life's been pretty much the same.. but there is a special reason for blogging today, and that's cos i want to mark down 3 july as a special day. =)
zk met my family for the first time, proper. dad and mom are ok with him, in fact mommy just asked me if we were saving up for our future, planning for a flat etc. natural qn i guess, since she knows we've been tgt for 4 years. plus, both dad and mom know i intend to settle down and have a family by the age of 26 or so. im extremely happy with the way things are now. no longer do i have to hide the fact that im dating him, neither do i need to come up with excuses or lies when we stay out late tgt. after 4 long years, things turned out well. finally.
another good reason to update this blog is to mark my double promotion. in less than a year in advertizing, i managed to make my way up to AM (Account Manager) position. oh, for those who don't know the advertizing 'ladder', it is from AE (Acct Exec) to SAE (Snr Acct Exec) to AM to SAM, then to AD (Acct Director) and SAD (Snr Acct Director). that's for the account servicing side, which im in. this double promotion definitely didnt come easy, but im just very glad that my hard work paid off, and this pleasant surprise came timely. my original plan was to move on after a year, another ad agency perhaps, just to gain more exposure and experience. but since this came along the way, i'd stay on for a longer period of time, learn more things before moving on and (hopefully) jumping to a higher position in the next agency. proud to say that nobody has had a double promotion in less than a year in my current place. somehow, i must've been doing some things right. =)
now it's all about work, zk, and family. hardly have time for friends nowadays. just the occasional meetups, dinners etc. everyone's just been way too busy. but once in a while i do drop random messages to the 'long-lost-pals', just to see how they're doing. so far so good, everyone seems to be doing well. but some arent too happy with the place they're working in. which then makes me think that im so lucky to fulfil my dream of working as a Suit in an ad agency. not to mention, nice colleagues, nice boss, great working culture. of cos we whine and bitch about work, but nothing is perfect. i do believe that i am blessed, and someone up there is really taking care of me.
main point of this post: LZK MET MY FAMILY =)))

my boss got into an accident as he rode up to kota tinggi. it was a terrible accident, and many have shed their tears... now he's paralyzed. all we can do is pray for a miracle. so yes, i've had a change of boss, and i've gotta familiarize myself with a whole new working style - the way the new boss works. not like i have a choice...
there's this strange tao2 hua1 yun4 that ying and i have been experiencing over the past month or so. its really weird. i cant understand why or how it happened... but it is disturbing of sorts. anyone would know that im not 100% sure about lzk. this just further reinforces my uncertainty about him. i wish that its just a passing phase. im not quite ready to make a whole new set of choices right now.
really sick at the moment, and i had to think to myself 'WHEN CAN I TAKE MC!?' hahahaha. cos im with a new team, and they hardly know what i do from day to day (yes im almost like a standalone), its hard to pass on my jobs to someone else. the only day i can take MC is Wed. i just hope that i survive till Wed. My nose is running like a tap, my voice is gone, and now i have a bad tummy to add on to the list. Just.... great.

i alr miss lzk. he's only left sg for 3hrs. but he'll be gone for 2 weeks.
finally things are slowing down at work, perhaps just for now. its a mad rush every single day. pretty scary that time passes so quickly. i like my environment, i like the pace. but now i gotta think, what about my future....
