Dear friends,
A very good day to all of you as always!
29 July 2010 marks my last day at VGO Corporation Limited (World of Sports).
It has been more than 2 years here and I am grateful for all the kindness shown, friendships forged and journeys created. It has been a pleasure working with all of you and I am sure our paths may cross one day in the future...
Thank you for the wonderful memories and keep in touch!
Yes. You have not misread anything.
Today. is. the. day.
it is indeed hard to say goodbye to these fun & loving colleagues.
the hardship we've all gone thru' together. the jokes and laughters we've shared so far.
despite how much i've been wanting to explore and view the world from a different place...
i think i'll miss vgo peeps very much still. :(
farewell people. our paths may cross one day in future.
here i come. puma.
i'm sure there will be loads of things to adapt and learn. and a true successor should never be afraid to adapt new culture. new lifestyle.

Yes, wonder what are all these pictures all about?It is an inaugural and last Mizuno Race Clinic managed by me.
Am gonna miss the people in the running scene.
They are the ones who taught me what perseverance is all about. Running is not just any other sports. It teaches you the power of perseverance and patience. I know... I may not have mastered the full meaning behind running yet. But... the interest in running will never stop even though I'm moving on to somewhere else.
Soon... very soon...
The brand new place awaits.

Can't wait!!! AHHHH!!! NODAME CANTABILE FINALE is finally out at selected theatres today!!!
Ever since its first movie flashes on our movie theatre 3 months ago... I've been waiting for the final movie since then!
I'm so watching tonight with Hansel and Jiangping!!! WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
to all musicians out there! Nodame Cantabile Movie is a MUST MUST MUST WATCH movie! It comprises of the familiar beethoven, brahms & mozart's music PLUS the entertaining casts in there working towards their musical dreams and goals at PARIS! :)
For those who are unaware of this movie... read up the story plot which i've extracted from wikipedia, to refrain from seeing stars or feel lost while watching the movie! :P
"Nodame" is a piano student at Momogaoka College of Music. An extremely talented pianist who wants to be a preschool teacher, she prefers playing by ear rather than reading the music score. She is messy and disorganized, takes baths several days apart and loves to eat, sometimes stealing her friend's lunchbox when it is filled with delicacies.
Shinichi Chiaki is Momogaoka's top student. Born into a musical family, he is talented in piano and violin and has secret ambitions to become a conductor. An arrogant multi-lingual perfectionist who once lived abroad in the music capitals of the world as a young boy (namely Prague), he is trapped in Japan because of his childhood phobia of airplanes and the ocean.
They meet by accident. Nodame quickly falls in love, but it takes much longer for Chiaki to even begin to appreciate Nodame's unusual qualities. Their relationship causes them both to develop and grow. Along the way, they meet some crazy people (like Masumi, Mine, and Stresemann) and make lasting friendships. Because of Nodame, Chiaki gets the opportunity to lead a student orchestra and begins to have a broader appreciation of people's musical abilities. Because of Chiaki, Nodame faces her fears and enters a piano competition. Opportunities open up as both begin taking risks, stretching themselves far more than they ever thought possible.
After graduation, Nodame succeeds in curing Chiaki from his phobia and they both move to Paris where Nodame continues her piano studies at the Conservatoire de Paris while Chiaki starts a professional career as a conductor. In Europe, they encounter new friends and rivals, as well as keep in touch with their friends from Japan."

HAPPY 3RD ANNIVERSARY TO US! :))
TIMHO was in his cute kelisa, waiting patiently for me under my office building. I was finishing up some work and end up being 15mins late! >.< TIMHO was not at all frowning nor angry for the waiting (usually he does!) and he even surprised me with a bouquet of roses at the back of his car. TEEHEE! so sweet of him!
Thanks goodness he wasn't pissed off at all for the waiting, else we would have 'tabao' and head off our separate home after arguing WHY AM I SO LATE! (The above action is untrue and is based on my own imagination: TIMHO is a changed man now... so none of those angry faces will come from him anymore!! woohoooo!!!)
So the magical evening continued...
we reached vivocity and headed to 'The Mussel Guys' restaurant at level 2.
We've been wanting to try out for a long while but there's just no chance for us to pop by at Vivocity.
So yeapp. Last night was our chance!
So now... let me introduce to you one-by-one the menu of the night :)
Dish 1: Pumpkin Soup (Ratings: 3/5 stars)
Their pumpkin soup is above average "Pasta mania' standard. Thick and it definitely taste like pumpkin!
Dish 2: Steamed mussels with white wine & garlic (Ratings: 4/5 stars)
If you know me well enough, you will realise that I'm one who can't stand stanch of ultra raw seafood. So I don't really like seafood being steamed or boiled! Surprisingly, this steamed mussels taste exceptionally nice with the white wine and strong garlic sauce.
Dish 3: Half-baked mussels with cheese (Ratings: 4.5/5 stars)
one of my favourite dish of the night. lovin' the cheese and mussels! definitely worth trying it!
Dish 4: Baked Salmon with Honey and rice (Ratings: 4/5 stars)
The Salmon is ultra crispy. Even its skin IS crispy. Special recommendation to people who doesnt eat fish skins or any skins- erhmm Dinesh Dayani for instance, might start eating salmon skins if he tries this!
Dish 5: ICE-CREAM with chocolate toppings (Ratings: 3.5/5 stars)
The ice-cream is above average magnolia ice creams. Because it is absolutely FREE (thanks to OCBC credit card!)
It just taste better like haagen dazs'! :))
The day didn't just stopped after dinner. We window-shopped around... pre-hunting for items that we could look out for in our massive shopping spree after my exams this Friday!
And therefore, Anniversary celebration to be continued on Friday 9.07.10!

breathe in... breathe out...
...
breathe in again... breathe out...
...
okay... getting pissed off isn't gonna help me in anything.
really. just do your stuff. i'm sure someone knows exactly how much you have done or contributed all these why. even if no one knows about it... at the very least.. YOU.. yourself knows what you have done so far. Yes. Be confident. Do what is right!
Opportunities will come to me. And I'll make sure I grab it tightly enough to secure what's given to me. Don't worry! Don't Panick! There's always something greater waiting for you somewhere. That's what I've always believed in.
Just at times, when you drool over what others are having and stuff... you just lost your beliefs.
Pull yourself back! Remember what you have always believed in.

busy. stressed. madly. crazy.
work is crazy. school's madly.
and i'm totally stressed out!
o'wells... to someone like me who bothers about almost everything.
it is just oh so taxing! seriously... sometimes i wonder... how does everyone do it?
teach me!!!
i'm trying very hard to not think about what others are thinking or saying.
just do my best... and hope for the best.
i'm always the one who cares too much about comments and stuff... and therefore, i am always the one who spend the most time doing stuff to impress people... and ensure that people don't say anything bad about me. yeapp... and when i'd really tried my best... and people still talks.
TADAAA! that's when the madness in me comes in!
that's me. very me indeed.
timho told me yesterday that i really need to get hold of myself and do what's right.
don't push myself too hard. just do what i think it is right.
yup. i'm just gonna give myself more confidence and tell myself... I'M DOING ALRIGHT. DON'T EVER GIVE A FUCK ABOUT ANYONE.
yupp.. sigh... pathetic isnt it?
i do hope i can remove this stigma out soon. :(
if i continue doing so... it wont affect anyone but myself.. it will only be stressing out myself at the end of the day. yeap... :(((
