Christmas was D.U.L.L this year.......... i couldn't really enjoy my christmas cos of stupid work....... i was invited to 2 Christmas parties and 1 countdown party which i had to forego.......i was supposed to meet up with 2 gangs of ppl, which i also forego... i disappointed alot of ppl...but i pray they'll still invite me to Christmas party again nxt year..... heh....

Farewell 2008: The year's coming to an end......... i wonder if i've fulfilled any of the resolutions i've made for this year.... i think i've fulfilled some... like passing my piano exams and graduating this year........i just read thru my "wistful thoughts" column tucked nicely at the bottom of my blog..... long forgotten by me.... haha...

1. Graduate in 2008/ Get 2nd upper above! Prays hard... ---> DONE


2. Strike Toto/4D ---> ONCE, 250 bucks... hahah but i want more!


3. Go Thailand, Taiwan by 2008 ---> DONE half, went Thailand only..


4. Mitsubishi Colt Plus Turbo Car ---> WAIT ANOTHER 5 YEARS.


5. Glass Panes for Balcony ---> waiting for my mum to strike TOTO. haha


6. Gucci/Dior Bling Sunglasses ---> dont want it anymore... hahaha


7. iPhone ---> still contemplating between iphone or samsung omnia


8. More Shoes, Work Tops, Casual Shorts, Accessories, Watches ---> this will be permanently here. cos it's never ending... hahaha...


9. Earn more than 4k a mth in 2 yrs ---> really must wait quite long. tmd. considering the economy now.. pui.


10. Fancl Powder Cleanser, Origins/Biotherm toner, Fancl Blusher ---> bought long ago, other brands though...


11. All Dreams Come True ---> this will be permanently here too

i realised i've fulfilled some lah..... like going Thailand, graduating this year (but i din get 2nd upper though, sad).....i shall make another list soon... yah i know my list very superficial and materialistic, but im too lazy to think of deep profound ones hahah.... im a very practical person... down to earth, and very simple minded... anything can make me happy easily....but i guess i need to brush up on my wittiness... it's failing these days... i've done alot of stupid things recently and im regretting.....

well....... flashback on 2008.... now, wat did i do... i seriously cant really remember.... i only remembered the day i received good news about my results, that i passed everything and managed to graduate..... i went around the office telling the world and asking them to congratulate me... tat was quite retarded... hahaha... i remembered mugging not very hard for my exams..... haha..... i've got a lucky star.... i dont really study hard, but i still pass.... the star's been with me since young... but it failed during my A levels though.... hahaha... but if i didn't fail, i would have gotten a rather poor results which wont see me to taking business in the university.... and eventually, i wouldn't have met my uni bunch of gd frens, and i also wouldn't have joined my office and met the gd pals in my company too....

so, all in all, i din really have any regrets... cos i graduated... i joined my company.... i had lots of fun during my last year of uni.... i had lots of fun with my company pals.... it was hell lot of fun.... but there were times when i felt empty, lonely and unwanted by all.... there were times i felt really down....but it doesn't really matter to me anymore... i should look forward and not backwards.... it's all past.... somebody once told me about the past, present and future.... i can't really remember wat it was, but it goes something like: the past is past, and you can't really do anything abt it anymore... cherish the present and look forward into the future.... okok, doesn't sound very fantastic but it made quite an impact on me..... i'm still trying to look forward instead of backwards....

i dont know whats wrong with me these days... i let my emotions get hold of me and i show it all on my face... i didn't used to do that.... it's irritating.... my EQ dropped 10 fold these days.... i read it on the papers somewhere that you shouldn't bring your emotions to work... you got to leave it behind at home.... yes, i shall do that.... but i think, the reason i bring my emotions to the office... is cos i feel that those ppl in the office are close enough for me to open up and show them my emotions.... my gang at the office, are really that close... i feel... that i can open up to them easily.... just that i show it at the wrong location, i shouldn't do that in the office..... another major thing that happened in my year 2008, was i got to know the office gang.... they made me see what FUN was.... they showered me with the kind of care and concern that i really appreciate....

sometimes i feel too lucky to be true.... everywhere i go.... there'll be this particular bunch of ppl who will make an impact in my life... who will truly show concern for me, who will really care and appreciate me for my stupidity at times...at every particular stage of my life, i'll meet different bunches of ppl.... and it'll always be a super fun group of ppl.... and ppl who are really true to me.....

primary sch: pam and the rest of crystal gang whom i still hang out till now....they are the only ppl other than my family to still call me "kai lin"

secondary sch: yanwen and 04,06 gang... whom i seldom hang out, but always have unlimited topics to talk about, especially my dear yanwen....everytime i meet her for our dinners, the food will seem so totally unimportant....

jjc gang: lynnette and THE GANG... COT gang... they are also another bunch of my crazy-true ppl who always still drop me msgs, ask me how are things and ask me out...whom i had hell lots of fun even though i've disappointed them countless of times by being MIA....

uni gang: yvonne and the rest of the gang... yvonne who is ever so fairy godmotherly to me, whom i always have unlimited topics to talk about, whom really always help me out selflessly...

my office gang: angeline and the boys... angeline who's ever so fairy godmotherly too, and always offering to lend me 1001 things out of her wardrobe, who is always there for me to whine to.... the office boys who are always there to hold our doors, help us carry our laptop bags and help us buy lunch to pamper the only girls in the group....

looking forward: im trying very hard to save up for my future hse (if there's any) and future car (if any) hahaa.... but to no avail.... and im running out of clothes to wear....... so in the near future, AKA TOMORROW, im going to shop till i drop cos we're having HALF DAY OFF! woohoo... im sure everyone else are having half days off lah..hahaha but tml is the day where i dont want to stay over to work, where i can finally go shopping after a long long time.... well, i actually went shopping on christmas eve, but it was with an agenda of buying christmas gifts for my frens but i ended up not buying anything cos of the unbest timing, i had to rush off rather quickly...... so i didn't really shop for myself... but tomorrow, the priority will be ON ME. if the bf refuses to follow me to shop, i shall go shop myself. i dont care.

ok... tat was a rather long post......... so...i'll wish everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR in advance cos i shall be dead tired after my shopping spree tomorrow to blog...... START MAKING YOUR RESOLUTIONS NOWW!!!! it works when u put it down on pen and paper, or like me, on my blog (ok lah, mine's not exactly resolutions but more of a personal wish list hahaa)... somehow... u'll get at least a few things done on the list... cos u'll do it subconsciously... SO DO IT NOW.
