i thought yesterday was my unluckly day because my high heel split on my way for lunch

i drop the namecard that my sis passed to me, including the no.

it really spoil my mood

but then somegreat stuff happen, perhaps not really very good

First, when Benson knew that I didn't have my lunch( i lost my mood to eat), he came down to the reception there pass me food

Crystal Jade dim sum eh, the bao

Secondly, the transformer caught fire

so there was a cut off for electricity, and everyone in the building went out to check out

thinking it was another emergency exercise

so also make use of this opportunity to know more people

and i realise MOST PEOPLE THINK I M IN MY TWENT-IES !!!!

am i that old, or perhaps, MATURE ???

When hang out with mature people like working adult, it really help me to behave in a more mature manner. =) and i like that.

it will take about 4 hours to repair the transformer so everyone can go back earlier around 4pm

and the best is that I STILL GET MY FULL PAY, as said by susan, by supervisor

but they have not sign the timesheet for me so i will collect my pay late

damn happy lohx, didn't work but got pay

another self-confession time . . . . . .

after that i actually join the ' big boss' for Happy Hour

so me and Benson got into his boss car then he drive us there

actually i don't want to go de, but they keep insisting so i just give in

this boss, which is also the director of the company share with me alot of his experience and i just know that Flextronic has their own university and second largst electronic-thinggy manufacturing in the world with over 30 000 employers . . .

this is damn cool ~

join a few director for a drink, white wine but i don't know what is it name

my face turn red as usual, and felt a lit tipsy because i finish the entire glass

will recommand people to go, it is near the big splash there

they keep teasing me, because i want be a teacher in the furture

so they were like Miss Lim . . . Miss Lim . . . but overall they are very nice people

this is the first time i socialise in ' adult' manner, which i like it very much

furthermore is with director of the company in Kallang branch =)

after that went watch movie, Quartine( did i spell it correctly) with Benson

it was nice but too many shocking scenes and alit bit bloddy for me

well, WILL RECOMMAND ZIXU to watch because she will like the gross part( people biting off the flesh of another)

I was very scared lohx so keep grabbing his hand, hope he don't find me irritating

walk around in Orchard then have my supper at ljs at ps, this is my favourite

chessy fries & chips combo +EXTRA cheese ( influence from Sherilyn)

then walk to cityhall area then i take train home

don't know why feel very giddy so slept very early till today

so, I DIDN'T COMPLETE MY 20 ROUNDS OK !!!

Day 03 (Sunday, 16 Nov 2008)
Our activity for this day was rather special. We went to this drawing competition organized by the Interactors from Chowringhee High School. This competition took place in the Southern part of Kolkata, in an isolated village. I was pretty excited for the village trip; this would be the first time going to a ‘real’ village with people still living in it. I do not get to see any village nowadays, other than the ‘Malay village’. I really admired our bus driver’s driving skills. I have no idea how he managed to get the whole coach through the narrow streets. The roads were way too narrow for a big coach like ours. Impressive!
As usual, we were late. But that was not the point. There were a lot of children and parents when we arrived at the village. Without any further delay, we started our work for the day. Honestly, I did not do much to help; I was interested in shooting photos then distributing drawing papers. In fact, I was taking photos most of the time. The children were separated into different categories according to their age, where they were given different topic to draw about. Fortunately I did not participate in this drawing competition, or I would be losing face like crazy. I mean these people could draw pretty well. With the limited drawing materials, they could simply do up a beautiful drawing. I was amazed by their talents! As we wait for all the participants to finish up their drawings, the principal of Chowringhee High School volunteered to bring us for a village tour. I was so excited about it!
I guessed I would never able to survive in places like that. The living conditions were worse than I imagined. No way am I staying at that kind of place. At the same time, I am grateful with what God has blessed me with, a nice home to live in. How fortunate I am as compared to them? It was totally an eyes opening experience for me, to see how it was like living in a village without any Internet or whatever communication devices. What a good get-away from a city life! After the tour, we then went back to the very same field, where we sat for the prize giving ceremony.
We were supposed to go for lunch after that; however, I have no idea why we were heading to another place instead. The coach went deeper into the village, where we reached this farm-like place. We walked all the way to a house which was like 1 km away deep into a farm. It was scorching bright, and I cannot believe we were walking! We attended this stupid meeting by a group of NGO, which I have no idea who they were. They did some stupid stunts which make no sense at all, and then we left. Anyway, we totally waste our time there. Meaningless to the maximum!
After lunch, A.D brought us for a city tour. A.D told me that we would be visiting the different temples in India, since Kolkata is a cultural filled city. Seriously, I no longer remember which temple I went exactly. No matter which temples we visited, no photographing is allowed. So, I have nothing to recall on. But I do remember visiting this Kaligat Kali Temple. We were totally ‘pancaked’ by the people there. It was way too crowded, filled with too many devotees. But the other temples we visited were a lot better, not as crowded.
I am so happy when Kelvin told us Wendy, Pohee and I was moving to the Penthouse at level 7. We were so thrilled about it, this mean that each one of use could have one double size bed to ourselves. Wow! It was awesome! Our previous room was way too small to accommodate another bed, so they suggest us to move up to a bigger room instead. Other than use, both Aloysius and Fiona group were also moving up there. I guess the most exciting part would be the moving process. We simply grabbed any bag and dumped all our stuff inside, especially our toiletries. We have too much stuff to move, so we got to trouble Joanne to help us.

I cannot believe I am suffering now! No meat, no milk and no cold drinks for me. Oh my! My days are going to be miserable! After taking the prescribed medicines by the doctor, my running nose has become better; however, there is still no improvement for my stomach. My stomach is still feeling ‘weird’, with lots of rumbling and grumbling inside. The doctor said that it should be the food I have eaten in India which makes me so miserable now. I guess after all, even the restaurants are using the same source of water. This should be the reason I am suffering so much now. I should not have eaten too much while I was in India, this totally double up my suffering. Currently, I am leading a vegetarian diet. I cannot believe a pure carnivore need to eat vegetables instead. I mean you cannot possibly ask a tiger not to eat meant right? Hey tiger, go eat grass instead. I mean this is so weird.

Perhaps this is the best time to change my favorite past time. Perhaps from feasting to hibernating? Since I cannot eat, maybe I should spend my time sleeping instead? This could help me save money. Maybe, this is the only option left for me.

God spoke to me today in 2 Corinthians 7

He finally answer my prayer !!!

will need some time to process them . . . . . .

anyone I find the following very meaningful

was given out by Pui Wah during previous cg holy comm

" I knelt down to pray but not for long, I had too much to do. I had to hurry and get to work. For homework would soon be done. So I knelt and said a hurried prayer, and jumped off my knees. My Christian duty was now done, my soul could rest at ease. All day long I had no time, to spread a word of cheer. no time to give to souls in need, but at last the time, the time to die.

I went before the Lord, I came, I stood with downcast eyes.

For in His hands Gold held a book, the book of Life.

God looked into His book and said " your name I cannot find."

" I was once going to write it down, but never found the time. "

I want to include God in my daily life,

I will make time out everyday to meet Him.
