this song is so beautiful. i've no idea what im doing up at 530 am. i just cant sleep. too many thoughts clog my mind at night. when im all to myself i tend to think too much. i reckon i wont get much sleep tonight. the sun's gonna rise. i need a jog, a breath of fresh air. time seems to be leaving me behind.
Forever
I'll be loving you forever
Deep inside my heart you'll leave me never
Even if you took my heart and tore it apart
I would love you still forever
You are the sun, you are my light
And you're the last thing on my mind
Before I go to sleep at night
You're always 'round when I'm in need
When trouble's on my mind
You put my soul at ease
There is no one in this world
Who can love me like you do
So many reasons that I
Want to spend forever with you
Chorus:
I'll be loving you forever
Deep inside my heart you'll leave me never
Even if you took my heart and tore it apart
I would love you still forever
We've had our fun, and we've made mistakes
But who'd have guessed along that road
We'd learn to give and take
It's so much more than I could have dreamed
You make loving you
So easy for me
There is no one in this world
Who can love me like you do
That is the reason that I
Want to share forever with you
Chorus:
I'll be loving you forever
Deep inside my heart you'll leave me never
Even if you took my heart and tore it apart
I would love you still forever
(And girl I pray you leave me never)
Bridge:
'Cus this is a world
Where lovers often go astray
But if we love each other
We won't go, won't go that way
So put your doubts aside
Do what it takes to make it right
'Cos I'll love you forever
No one can tear us apart
Chorus:
I'll be loving you forever
Deep inside my heart you'll leave me never
Even if you took my heart and tore it apart
I would love you still forever
I just want you to know that
I can't eat, I can't sleep
I can't breathe, whenever I'm without you
When we walk, I stand tall
When we talk, I only talk about you girl
(Repeat Chorus to fade)

i love this test. i think the results are true to a large large extent. =)
********************************
madeline, when you reveal your true colors in love, you're a
Caring Partner
Above all, you're looking for a steadfast, loyal partner who you can trust to stand by you in good times and bad. You typically value the special bond that love can create. As a result, you're more likely to seek out someone who cherishes that deep connection too. Once you've devoted yourself to someone, you're the kind of person who can feel that nothing is too personal to share with your partner. Perhaps you feel that this kind of closeness is necessary for two people to truly relate. When your mate shares your desire to connect, the relationship you create can be both amazing and intense. However, in the past, you may have found that such intensity can be frightening for certain individuals. Don't let this truth stop you from finding the kind of relationship you really want. Keep in mind that there are others out there who will share your desires. The challenge will be not to get too attached to people who don't have this closeness as a relationship priority.
Friendship can be another primary relationship need for caring partners like you. In fact, you may feel strongly that the best relationships are those that are built on a solid foundation of friendship. If this belief holds true for you, you likely prefer a "friends first" approach to dating, rather than jumping in with both feet. If something is going to last, you're apt to feel that there's no need to move too quickly. However, this doesn't imply that you aren't interested in the sexual side of romance. On the contrary, once your relationship matures, you can take as much pleasure satisfying this side of your nature as almost anyone out there.
When it comes to your personal space and grooming, you may be viewed as being more particular than many others are. Aesthetics can be important to you, so you likely make an effort to keep yourself and the things around you in tip-top shape. Striving to keep things attractive and clean can be an admirable trait. However, realize that if you select a sweetheart who is a little on the messy side, your fastidiousness may become a bone of contention.
Still, little issues like cleaning habits aren't likely to put a damper on any relationship of yours. That's because when you are part of a couple, you generally make the effort to be flexible and understanding of personal differences. You also tolerate criticism better than most do. For you, friends' and lovers' constructive criticisms are typically viewed as acts of compassion. These traits can be great for your relationship, as long as you don't allow yourself to be pushed beyond your comfort zone. When difficulties arise, just try to maintain your approachability as well as your sense of self and take things in stride. After all, relationships — even the best ones — will have their moments of dissonance.
Your outlook on dating
Whether you're new to the dating scene or a self-proclaimed expert, your perspective about dating will go a long way toward determining your ultimate success in finding the partner who's right for you. Just remember that no matter what your view of dating is today, you always have the power to change it if it isn't bringing you what you desire. Here's what your colors revealed about your present outlook:
When a romance ends, you can be pretty hard on yourself — blaming yourself for problems and even seeing the relationship as a personal failure. Rather than just dusting yourself off and getting back in the saddle as many people do, you typically carry your sadness after a beak-up much longer. While it's important to allow yourself to grieve after a relationship ends, getting stuck in those feelings can inhibit your future happiness. Instead of telling yourself that you'll never find another love like your ex, or that there's no one out there you can trust, take some time to build up your faith and positivity again. Ironically, the best way to attract a compatible mate may be to find strength and happiness in being single.
As you venture out to find your life partner, use your well-developed imagination to come up with creative ways to meet new people. Your tendency to indulge in fantasy, romance, and the magic of chance, makes it so that you probably have no problem envisioning a million ways you could find love. Now, all you need to do is put those dreams into action. Try going to new places, getting involved in new activities, and seeking out inventive ways to meet singles. You might even want to try online dating. As much as you may wish for it, your dream date is not going to drop into your lap one day. Instead, you'll need to focus on your goal and create new and exciting possibilities.
How you handle conflict
Once you find yourself as part of a couple, the way you and your new partner handle disagreements will become crucial to your relationship's long-term success. Realistically, you can't expect to avoid relationship problems entirely, so it's best understand whether or not the way you and your partner argue is compatible. This is something you'll usually be able to determine within the first three months of a relationship, and sometimes even sooner.
In your case, you tend to feel that it's important for both parties to feel heard in an argument. So if your partner yells at you, you're likely to try to calm things down so the two of you can have a more rational discussion. Sometimes, though, you may lose your temper and respond with a sarcastic or biting comment. For the most part, though, you try to decrease tension to have a good talk about each person's perspectives. This is one way you look to better yourself in relationships: by giving and receiving honest feedback. However, if your partner confronts you when you've done something wrong, you may try to change the subject rather than face the consequences. If that doesn't work, you'll make other attempts to displace the tension. It can be difficult for you to have open, honest conversations about your own faults. However, to have the kind of close relationship you want, those are just the kinds of talks it will be important to have. Growing in relationships sometimes requires us to humble ourselves from time to time. The rewards can be well worth it. So for your relationships to be the most satisfying that they can be, you would do best to find another person who's willing to have caring, open discussions even when things get tough.
How you end your relationships
The way a person ends their relationships is often a sign of both the maturity one gains through experience and the compassion one has for their romantic partners. Your colors showed that you can be a real pro when it comes to ending romances gracefully. At the close of a relationship, you're much more likely to make the effort to discuss your feelings with your ex, rather than leave them with questions about what went wrong. You're also one who'll typically offer support during this sad time by listening and letting your ex share their feelings with you. By ending romances this way, you ordinarily have the benefit of remain friends later if you choose to.
Now that you know what your color choices revealed about you in love, it's time to find out more about color itself.
*[a lil princess thought at]*|02:26|
madeline, you're a
Responsible Friend
You've earned this title because as someone with a loyal, trustworthy, and giving nature, you're the kind of person almost anyone would be proud to call a friend. The high value you appear to place on your personal integrity is indeed an admirable trait. Types like you seem to try to live by the ol' Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Because of this inclination, you insist on taking responsibility for your actions, even in difficult circumstances. So if you're over at a friend's house and accidentally knock over an expensive antique vase, you're not the kind of person to try to blame it on the cat. In fact, not only are you likely to own up to the mistake, you might even scour local antique stores until you find the perfect replacement.
You also appear to take conscious steps to honor your commitments to others. As a result, if you tell a colleague you'll help at a charity event early on a Sunday morning, chances are you'll be there — no matter what you did the night before. And although you probably wouldn't call yourself a crusader for social causes or the environment, chances are you do your part. As someone who is loyal to their friends and helpful when called upon, you can be proud of the positive effect you can have on the people you care about and the community at large.
Who You're Compatible With
Besides people of your own type, the two types that are the best matches for you are the Ethical Benefactor and Gentle Protector.
Ethical Benefactor:
Ethical Benefactors have earned this title because they appear to have exceptionally high ethical standards when compared with many around them. It also seems that they typically manage to adhere to these ideals and expect that others do the same. Consequently, if one of them came upon a winning lottery ticket lying in the street, they'd be one of those rare types who'd probably search high and low for its rightful owner. Ethical Benefactors likely know that many other people would simply take the money and run, but that wouldn't feel right to them. Whether they're admitting when they've done wrong, holding themselves back from snooping into others' private things, or not accepting what doesn't belong to them, they strive to remain honest, upstanding people.
These standards can lead them to bring out the best in themselves and others. However, their high ideals may also mean that the people around them let them down from time to time. When others conduct themselves in ways they find dishonest, forgiveness may not come easily to Ethical Benefactors. They should try to remember, though, that mistakes are part of life. There are times when everyone could use a second chance. This type of person should consider putting their giving, caring nature to use by offering the wrongdoer their support in the same way that they'd aid a vulnerable person in need; then everyone involved can benefit from their high ideals.
Gentle Protector:
Gentle Protectors have earned this title because as people who recognize that they can make a difference in the world, they tend to be more mindful of their actions than most others are. They would probably also agree that they make concerted efforts to be helpful and giving to those around them. Because Gentle Protectors like to feel that everyone is taken care of, they're one of those rare types who'll go out of their way to protect the vulnerable from harm. Whether a little old lady needs help crossing the street or a neighbor's cat is stuck in a tree, you're likely to find a Gentle Protector right there to lend a hand. Members of this group also seem clear about their responsibility to society at large. As a result, if they find someone doing wrong, they may go out on a limb and notify the authorities so that dire consequences can be prevented.
Many Gentle Protectors appear to be more personally concerned about situations that violate innocents' rights than most others are. As a result, they may find themselves involved in local charitable activities or keeping a close eye on humanitarian efforts around the world. Chances are, they can't bear to see others suffering or being taken advantage of. This kind of empathy, coupled with their ordinarily giving nature, can make Gentle Protectors real crusaders for the underdog. Interestingly enough, it seems their care for other living things goes beyond their fellow humans. In fact, it's likely that these people count themselves as friends and protectors of the earth around them, as well. For this group, going the extra mile to recycle, conserve energy, or use earth-friendly products may simply seem like the sensible thing to do. Their can-do attitude and caring are things that others can admire.

Like We Never Loved At All - Faith Hill n Tim McGraw
You never looked so good
as you did last night,
underneath the city lights,
there walking with your friend,
laughing at the moon.
I swear you looked right through me.
But I'm still living with your goodbye,
and you're just going on with your life.
How can you just walk on by
without one tear in your eye?
Don't you have the slightest feelings left for me?
Maybe that's just your way
of dealing with the pain,
forgetting everything
between our rise and fall
like we never loved at all.
You, I hear you're doing fine.
Seems like you're doing well
as far as I can tell.
Time is leaving us behind,
(time - leaving us behind)
another week has passed
and still I haven't laughed yet.
So tell me, what your secret is
(I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know)
to letting go, letting go like you did,
like you did.
How can you just walk on by
without one tear in your eye?
Don't you have the slightest feelings left for me?
Maybe that's just your way
of dealing with the pain,
forgetting everything
between our rise and fall
like we never loved at all.
Did you forget the magic?
Did you forget the passion?
Oh, and did you ever miss me,
and long to kiss me?
Oh baby, baby.
Maybe that's just your way
of dealing with the pain,
forgetting everything
between our rise and fall
like we never loved at all.

i havent updated my blog for the longest time ever i suppose. my gawd. i've got SO MUCH to say i dun think i will express myself properly. cos normally the brain goes faster than the fingers yarh? anw, firstly, happie belated bdae to garfield n na!! i feel damn sorry i din manage to drop them an sms on the day itself cos i was working. n partially my short term memory's to blame too. i just cant rmr things. they're two besties of mine n yet i cant rmr!!! URGH. i'll treat them to belated celebration meals. ='( okie. must move on b4 i forget. i kena food poisoning on Tuesday 17th Jan. i ate prawn mee at 925 n i got gross prawns which caused me major food poisoning the next day. i was literally in bed till 3pm. kept running to the toilet to puke n all, n i felt totally jelly manx! how suay i was, cos roy ate the same thing n he din kena! i had to cancel out on ying's shopping trip, n i met john for a quick lunch b4 going to work. oooh i found nice prawn dumpling noodles in yishun!!! =D wilson alex n i were having a hell lot of fun at work. though i was like a little sickling n alex kept watching out for me like a big bro, we played the stupidly retarded game which restricts u from saying "i, you, him, her, they, is, the". retarded n boring as it sounds, its damn fun to play. hahahahah. alex was supposed to be a 'smart aleck (alex)' but apparently not! wilson was supposed to be the smartie cos he came up with the game, but right after we started playing he said a line going "ehh i tell u arh...." n alex n me just dropped to the floor laughing. my tummy was aching earlier due to food poisoning, n after that due to the laughters we shared. hahaha. ohh yes chef chris was super sweet! he knew i had food poisoning, he found this gastric pill called 'Actal' for me, it works wonders! the next morning i was fine already!!
ydae i worked split shift w our new assitant manager who just got transferred over from holland v. lets call him...... T. he's so bloody irritating! i havent worked w any manager n felt like throwing things at him!!! there were like 6 to 7 tables n i was literally doing most of the service myself? take orders, serve drinks, seat new customers... the routine just goes on. n obviously my short legs n short hands cant do everything that quickly! n where is Mr T? I HAVE NO FREAKING IDEA. n when i found him, he was behind the bar meddling w fruits. FOR WHAT!? wth man. n i needed him to key in the orders quickly cos i dun do cashier job. ohh not to mention, ydae was the day i felt so disgusted offering lousy service to customers. he hasnt set the table cutlery b4hand, so there were no soup spoons on the table. i saw that the soups were prepared, so i took a tray, took 3 soup spoons, n wanted to help him set b4 he served. but the smart Mr T just plonked the freakin soup in front of the customer without the soup spoon there. b4 he placed it down i already gave him the signal to hold it there first, but he just smiled n kinda gave the 'nevermind lah' look n he just plonked it down. WTF! hello u're a manager okay. i felt my face burning when i placed the soup spoon after the soup n the customers gave me a queer look. my face was red cos i was EMBARRASSED TO HAVE SUCH A LOUSY MANAGER n i was ANGRY N PISSED. ohh yes, another incident happened b4 lunch time. he was trying to shove all the buffet stuffs used for the event into the store cos they were taking up space outside. i asked him if it was possible to shift it to one side so it didnt block the way so much, den wait till jason comes to pack it into the store cos jason knows where to place it. he gave that corny smile again n said 'nvm lah, i just shift it n chuck it somewhere first, jason will rearrange later'. isnt that double job? jason gotta move everything out again!! -_-" n in the midst of him making the store seem like a maze, he broke this glass plate that belongs to catering. i was standing there staring at him so obviously i saw that he broke the plate. n guess what was his reaction? gimme that CORNY SMILE again. wtf. it makes me feel like bashing him up sometimes. n he even said "shhh, dun tell anybody. quietly bring it to the dustbin behind n throw it away." wth!?!? u broke smth n u're scared to admit it!?!? wth man!!!!! irritatingly pissing pest. URGH.
okay enough bout him. i dun like to contaminate my blog w too many horrendous ppl. hahaha. im still happy working in AD n aria! cos MOST or rather 95% of them are nice ppl!! ;) n so many of them take care of your well being when u're sick n all, it really feels more like a family than a corporate. okay, when the cost cutting measures come in, it feels more corporate like. im working w roy n brianna later n they're not up yet. -_-" working w chris too! yayys!!!
ydae hejia came to find me w my 'lunch' n 'dinner' he prepared!! i was so excited bout it cos he was so sweet to have made lunch n dinner for me. how often do i get guys preparing food for me huh? its so so rare lor!! n he made two really cute onigiris for me!!! =D it was pouring arnd 4 so he couldnt come to esplanade to meet me, so we met at night arnd 11 after i finished work. he brought the two cutey onigiris to esplanade to let me eat! hahaha. it was super yummy!! hahah, not to mention that he used the $2.50 per bowl rice. he's just so cute. its his virgin attempt so he wanted me to try it. how schweeeeeet. =) i feel so blessed manx!

today i flunked advanced theory, went to cafe cartel w chris darling, cut my hair w ying n told her stories, met mommy in town for dinner n shopping. i got new bracelets! =D not the girly type. more of the bohemian styled ones. i really love them. n i ate w mommie in nanbantei n we paid like $44 for really tiny portions of food which came super slow! ='( i was hungry after that so we had cheese sausage from level 1. even the cheese sausage filled me up more than the lil bit of jap food!! sobs. mommy wasted money!

got a thrashing from dad a few days back. now i gotta leave work at 11pm SHARP n get home by 12 or i'd get more shit from him. hahaha. i thot i'd be angry n all but all those kinda dissipated in less than an hr. john's call, roy n ah boy's smses all helped to ease my anger lah. n i could also understand how my dad felt. having his daughter coming home at 2 or 3am everyday isnt exactly safe. daddy mommie will always treat me as a kid no matter how old i am. it gets stifling at times, but i guess that's what i gotta face as an only child. im their precious daughter, n its good n bad at the same time. =) anw roy was really sweet to agree to let me off by 11pm every nite. i was really thankful manx. if not i'd have to quit n leave. which i really really dun want to. the ppl there are nice, the managers are good, what more do i want? though john's gone, n im seldom working in al dente, the company there is really great. i miss the time when roll calls caused traffic jams in the storeroom. when the night was so busy 2 or 3 runners were needed. the time where a huge group of us just packed food from makansutra to share in al dente vip table. it felt so much like a family of its own. n i just loved that feeling. i miss all the darlings.
went surf n turf suntec to work afternoon shift ydae. they were slammed at arnd 1. but funan S&T was slammed big time since 12. hahaha. there's 50% off surf n turfs, which is really worth it!! the food they serve is pretty good k!!! pls go try! =D who wanna go eat w me again? im always game for it. just call n jio me out. the ppl working at S&T suntec were really nice to me lah. cos i think i screwed up a lil since i wasnt clear of table numbering. also had to keep asking the ppl there for the location of things n all that. it isnt good working first day on a day that's so busy! at least it wasnt THAT BAD. i count myself lucky!
i've officially started salsa classes on saturday! its fun n all, but im kinda lazy to elaborate bout the ppl in the class. i shall do that together w next week's lesson yarh? anw meeting ying after so long was super exhilarating. cos she knows me like nobody does. i cant believe she could easily tell that i was still super stuck in my previous r/s. my good frens really read me damn easily. they just see thru what im thinking n all. amazing!
just chatted w brianna on msn. im so surprised we actually click! as in, i din expect to talk to her bout those issues. n we share the same feelings n same views. hahah. i've found someone to talk to at work. she says she sees the old her in me. for me, i just hope i find him back. i realised nobody can take that seat but he himself. i need more chats n longer chats w brianna. haha. =) i'll upload 1st Jan pics soon~!! stay tuned!

we got slammed at arnd 8pm todae!! omg. din really expect that many customers cos it was a rainy nite. anw lynn lau dined at al dente ydae w a guy!! hahaha. too bad i was working at aria. or else i might have served her! n todae peng fei dined there w cheryl. for hwachongnians reading my blog, cheryl is the one from hc OAC!! what a combination huh? peng fei n cheryl manx.. heheh. i sound like a bitch now. blahhhs. back to today, nothing much happened i guess. but there was a nice romantic bdae surprise for this lady. her bf had 2 of his frens to help him, one blowing the trumpet to the tune of 'happy bdae' n one holding a bouquet of roses. while he went up w de cake. how schweeeeet. i bet vdae's gonna be 100 times sweeter. brianna said there might be guys proposing n all. omg omg omg. cant believe i'd be witnessing the proposals of ppl i dunno! =D but its damn cool. i like romantic settings. even if im not the girl sitting there receiving the bouquet i'd be so touched. =) im looking forward to see how my vdae 06 is spent....

nothing much happened at work ydae except for the big quarrel between gen n leonard. i was freaked. literally. cos i din know what to do! but i kinda talked to leonard.. telling him she needs some time to get used to him being supervisor n all. n it really isnt v smart having a couple working tgt. need tonnes of communication to make that work. i was just being the lil girl listening to both of them n occasionally patting gen on the back to cool her down. whatever the problem, it will be settled after operation hrs. =) but things were fine afterwards! yayys!!
today's my LONG AWAITED OFF DAY. but i went back to aria in the afternoon to meet ah boy for lunch. n i bought cd case for leonard. had lunch at nooch, went to pack food for chef chris, den headed to town to meet mommy. my flu was making me tired n all, so i wasnt exactly in the mood to shop or anything. in the end i only had my body shop rose body lotion in my bag. it was going at half price i wanted to buy 10!!!! but i bet it'd turn mouldy by the time i used the 4th bottle. so i just bought 1. =/ im gonna smell nice! (not that i usually dont) yippie!~
did i mention that all my smses from sy were deleted on 31st dec 2005? ah boy did me the favour. but i realised certain memories arent that easily erased. no matter how good an option stands right in front of me, i know i wont pursue another r/s. or at least, not yet. till when? i dunno. i think i've plunged into self pity n all that again. blahhhs. crap.

31st dec 2005
this yr's countdown was spent at WORK. that's a first. its the first time i spent it at esplanade watching fireworks as well. but work itself was helluva hectic. throngs of ppl came up n asked for tables, only to be rejected cos there was simply no seating space. blahhs. i had to put up that apologetic 'im so sorry' look so many times i think im a pro at it now. n i turned away a few groups of young ppl as well. so after an extremely busy nite it was COUNTDOWN!!!! i wanted so much to chiong all the way back to al dente n watch fireworks, but it wasnt allowed. so i caught fireworks w de aria gang n ah boy. =) still it was amazing. i bet the view from al dente was 100 times better, cos eric oh actually recorded it down into his fone! n it was SPLENDID i tell ya. n it was only recorded thru a camera phone!! can u imagine using a video cam or anything betta? awwww...
okay anw after the fireworks everybody just hugged n wished each other happie new yr n what's not. the crowd slowly cleared out, most of the family family ppl went home. leaving youngsters n all to loiter in the late night esplanade. lemme see, 3 guys n 4 girls told me i look like carrie chong *i suspect john sent them*, 7 guys i dunno came back to aria after countdown to say hi n wished me happie new yr *they were ppl i turned down earlier cos i couldnt get them tables.. they went to other pubs n came back just to say hi*, only one guy made a big hoohah that nite over the small table he had, lots of good looking ppl in esplanade. =) wellwell that shd be all? but we worked till freakin 4am cos we had to do setting for event the next day. i went back to al dente n realised that john, roy, fabien, ashik were all there!! =D at least i had yishun ppl to go back w me!! heheh. my p/t bf din disappoint me! i sat there in al dente watching roy n fabien flaunt their bar stunts. u know those bartenders that throw their bottles all over the place n somehow manage to catch 'em back? yea that sorta stunts. i was shocked when i realised both roy n fabien could do it so well. (their standards dropped once they got a lil tipsy) hahaha. in the end we went home at like... 6 am? i reached home at 6.30 n slept at 7.30am.
1st Jan 2006
worked in al dente that night. nothing much. din really get slammed or anything. comfortable pace w comfortable ppl. yepps. but everyone was looking forward to john's ktv session! hahah. cos it was my p/t bf's last day in al dente. sobs. he's still ranked my fave manager. my first day was spent being his runner. n he slowly intro-ed the food to me. it helped so much! that day was the day i registered all the food n their appearance. making work in al dente so so so much easier. he's good lah. ohh n he doesnt smoke. HAHA. how many ppl in al dente dun smoke? u can easily count tt w ya fingers. okay anw we had a ktv session after work!! ashik, rudy, brianna, eric oh, roy, jason, jane, ah boy, chef kelvin, me.. i cant recall if there're any others. anw we met the holland v al dente ppl there. hahaha. there was this chef that knew me but i dunno him. his name shd be rex or smth. yupps. anw i realised john sings damn well. n i mean the WOAH sorta voice. no wonder ppl are asking when he's cutting his album. hahaha. loads of beer (for the guys), tonnes of songs n dance, crappy games to make ppl eat fruits n drink beer. from 1 to 6am, they actually downed 13 jugs or so. ah boy was K.O by 5am, john was a lil tipsy. i got double shocks in the ktv itself. but it shant be disclosed. took me a lil time to even react lah, but i guess everything's gonna stay the way it is.
we left party world at 6am n we started scouting for breakfast! went to swensons n realised they only served those american breakfast sorta thing, toast n waffles n all. but roy wanted smth more filling, so we decided to head to meritus mandarin chatterbox. chatterbox serves HORRIBLE food at incredulous prices. john n i shared omelette n waffle, roy had wanton mee, chef kelvin had chicken rice, ah boy had chicken rice, brianna n eric shared i-dunno-what. but in any case everything was cold n unappetizing man. the rosti was like stiff n all. i thot it'd be crunchy k! imagine my face when i bit into it n it got stuck in my retainers. hmph! n considering the fact that there were 2 chefs n 2 f&b outlet managers, obviously we couldnt take it. but the company was amusing lah. everyone was like tipsy n going nuts, so we made a fool of ourselves in chatterbox. i was laughing so hard i got stitches man!! horrid food aside, it was still a heck of a night to remember. =) who the hell eats chatterbox at 6.45am anw?
cabbed home n reached home at 8am. totally SHAGGED. slept till 12pm n headed out for lunch w parents. i realised its been so long since i ate with them. somehow a pang of guilt hit me cos i've been spending way too lil time w them. i only manage to talk to mommy b4 i sleep. n those are probably the only conversations we share now. sigh. gotta put in more effort n time on my darling parents.
2nd jan 2006
worked in aria. nothing much, just handling outside again. im always the pretty face standing outside aria's door. so pls smile to me when u walk pass k! i feel like an idiot when i smile n the person gives me the 'who the hell are u smiling to?' look. blahhhs! edeots man. obviously im smiling to you n not to the air arnd u!! hahaha. there was this caucasian guy that asked me for the time when he himself was wearing a watch. lousy pick up line huh? but after that leonard told me that guy sat down just cos he was interested in me. but i just laughed it off. who cares if it boosts aria sales rite? he spent $10 to sit there for 5 mins ogling at me. so be it! hahaha. i dun stand to lose anything.
3rd jan 2006
aria again. lester came! n he gave me a muffin! so sweeeeeet of him!! =D he went al dente only to realise im now working in aria. n tmr he's going to go bald. awww. ohh btw, Aria n Al Dente are under Creative Eateries. so i DID NOT QUIT. im still working at al dente sometimes. dun ask me why im working at both al dente n aria. cos i have no idea! its tough learning things from both sides, but as long as i get to learn, i get to serve n meet new ppl, i dun mind. =)
b4 i went to work i was at kbox w 04s6b ppl~ but not the whole class turned up. only about 10 of us? but still its been so long since i met up w them. i was having this terrible sore throat when i woke up, but amazingly it cleared up after singing. hahaha. n i met john for dinner at raffles city shopping centre b4 i headed to work. he sent me there n it was kinda weird seeing him in casual wear in al dente. cos my image of him in al dente is alwaes the 'long sleeved shirt n black pants' attire. wellwell, he's no longer my manager! but still we're a p/t couple!! hahaha. still can meet him for meals b4 work n all that. eric oh's been transferred to holland v together w jane n mervyn. so many ppl are leaving. even ah boy says he might leave. sigh. ydae nite had a long chat w ah boy in 925. an hour plus i guess? he's a really nice chatting partner manx. can totally be my jie mei. after last nite's chat w ah boy n mommie, i figured some ppl only have the mentality of 14 when they're already 20. all i can say's that age's just a number. ultimately the maturity n all depends on the individual. i dun think im matured, but sometimes i just think others are childish.
