[wake up, wake up...]
Finally, after so long, I have done up the updates in my resume. It's really in much order now with the needed details all in it. I know, I know, I am taking way too long to complete it but as you see, it feels as though I have just woken up from some "dream", woken up into reality. The reality of a realistic society with the need of getting a proper job and placing what I have learnt these past 22 years into real life situations.
Argh.
Why am I still holding on to that resentful feeling?
I truely wish that I am like my cousin, who is able to move forward, towards his goal in the entertainment industry. From a current host to his future DJ posts, I am sure he will excel. He told me that he wants to open an entertainment company next time, though words are easier said than done, I have already felt the passion he has for his job and I am sure not long after, he will become very successful.
I really envy someone like that - for having the goal in life and working towards it.
Yet, I don't have that and I feel that I am still groping in the dark without any directions.
To add on to my agony, what I look towards is more on the monetary benefits than the job satisfaction.
*shakeshead*
Sometimes, I really hate myself.
Watched this movie "Eternal Sunshine" recently and it's another great movie, you should go rent the dvd and watch! It's really nice and interesting!
Some interesting quotes from the movie:
Blessed are the forgetful, for they get the better even of their blunders ~ Bartlett's.
How happy is the blameless vessle's lot! / The world forgetting, by the world forgot / Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind! / Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd.

[the hard way...]
When I was young, I hate reading storybooks, even if you shove a book in my face and force me to read, I will not be obliged to do so. I always vividly remembers my primary school classmate who sits next to me in class, always engrossed in a book when we teacher isn't around. He has got a weird bad habit - he loves bitting his nails, so on one hand he reads his books, on the other hand he bits his finger nails till it ends up super short!
I guess all these readings hasn't gone down the drain, as it has proven that such reading will do good to writing skills and good interpretation in the english language.
If only my mum did bribe me in the past with big big lolipops or big fat ang baos for me to read finish one book or if I did well in my english test then perhaps I will be better off now? haha
I guess not ba...
I found out something that works better:
If my neighbour comes over to my place and praise her daughter getting 100 marks in her spelling test while pulling me down by comparing that I fail my test - I guess that would be a better way to get me back to my books.
It's always the hard way of getting to things as I will feel more motivated when being criticise and more 'encouraged' when others pinpoint on my weaknesses.
Although that feeling sucks alot, it seems to be the best option...

[painting a picture of bliss]
I saw a girl in the mirror with distant thoughts, looking blankly into her mirror, she thought to herself how vague the future seems to be. Unsure of what to be done, she could only pray for what she wants. As she grew deeper and deeper in thoughts, she started to paint a picture of bliss with a smile. Her friend said that life is never a bed of roses but yet she was always hopeful that it maybe one.
Like a toddler learning to walk, like a girl who fell and is learning to get up on her feet herself, she remains independent and is willing to embrace herself with any opprotunities that may come by.
Though with her low-morale and low self esteem as a stumbling rock, the road ahead seems to be a much tougher path to tread. But with courage and determination, nothing should bring her down.
Very meaning and encouraging quotes that I learnt from both movies which I have watched recently:
Chef Gusteau's famous motto: Anyone can cook. But I realize that only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere.
If you're focused on what you've left behind, you will not be able to see what lies ahead.
Remy:No. Dad, I don't believe it. You're telling me that the future is - can only be - more of this?
Django: This is the way things are; you can't change nature.
Remy: Change is nature, Dad. The part that we can influence. And it starts when we decide.
Django:Where are you going?
Remy: With luck, forward.
Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?
Congratulations my friends! =)

[Updates - All in one]
Was craving for a drink badly just now and thus I made myself a drink by tossing some icy cold vodka with origina(only soft drink that I have), the drink turned out quite nice but with minimal alcohol taste. I think it lacks a dice of lemon....
I went out with ptl the other day and although the time spent was short, I was really happy. It's always nice to hang out with your friends, have brunch, talk casually, do some random shopping and walk and smile as if all troubles are away. I ended up with a heavier pocket at the end of the day as I bought two working tops, I haven't start working and yet I have been spending on credit. Sigh. Really not a right thing to do but it's always like heart over mind thing(plus with ptl's encouragement haha)...
Was out to fix the batt of my watch and also the camera the other day when I came across really poor customer service at the service centre. This guy got his batt of his watch fixed the other day but yet came back few days later to find that his watch is not working again. The technician realised that actually there are some parts in his watch that needs to be changed but the shipment of the mechanical parts needs 1 to 2 months! The guy added that it was long and he couldn't wait and added that in the first place when he changed the batt, the technician should have checked for him. A form of commotion goes on and the techincian eventually gave in and said that he can change the parts for him immediately.
.........
That means in the first place he was lying about the 1-2months waiting time for the shipment to be in?
..........
Sometimes I really don't understand the service industry where the waiting time could be as short as half an hour and yet they will tell you things like you have to wait for how many months and such. I mean in the first place we should be sure about things and don't let others wait for nothing.
Easier said than done, I know, but I am sure there's still some room for improvement. Isn't it?
Watched Evan Almighty the other day and did some catching up with some friends .I totally dig the movie!It's really hilarious and I couldn't stop laughing throughout, I guess I am easily made happy with simple-light-minded jokes and humor =)
I want to watch RA-TA-2-E too!
Another big kid like me who wants to join in the family fun! And most importantly, Remy reminds me of our little Hamy!haha
Some weird looking machines invaded my house yesterday:
Some fitness inverter machine that is suppose to help to:
-Reduce back pain
-Relieve stress
-Stimulate circulation and lymph flow
-Improve posture
-Reduce muscle tension
-Strength ligaments
-Increase flexibility and range of movement
-Reduce the effects of aging caused by gravity
Seems like quite a useful machine from the above advantages but I just hope that it will last and we will make full use of it, and not to end up like the threadmill which is collecting dust now.
A messy-clump-up entry but it's easier to update everything briefly at one shot.=p
Happy Birthday Aunty!Hope that you will always stay healthy and pretty always!*grins*
Also, wishing all my friends luck in the release of the results! Something that I have been avoiding, the fear in me that has been accumulating due to this. Sigh.
What eventually comes will come....*cross fingers that everything will turn out fine, I hope*
