who would lend me his shoulder

just feeling very very lousy now.

woke up feeling so sick...

argued with father this morning.

and yet, am in office working.

just argued with chengze on some issues.

i don't understand. there are some things i simply don't understand.

why when some other staffs can happily say they got family problem, they got this problem, they got that problem, they don't have to come to work.

and their work? throw to me to do.

even when i have family problem, i am so bloody sick myself, i just have to do everything.

just that's because i am corporate communication director and not an executive.

i have already slogged through the roadshows, the cc event even how sick, how weak i was. i still had to put on a strong front forced myself to think when things coop up. Now that the events are over, all i just asked for is only time to recover from my sickness. AND NO. here i am working again. home is like that. work also like that.

where is my life?

mummy mummy tell me please. even that now i can get what i want, i am still not happy. i feel miserable actually. you know why? because i am just plain slogging away.

weiyang told me that "chiong for success is one thing, burning up your life and health until u got no more to enjoy the fruits of labour is another thing"

hahah! true. plain slogging doesn't work. but they just don't get it. you know? all along, this journey i am walking alone and always alone....


i am getting tired of this lonely journey...

Thoughts...

just came back from dinner with keenlen (NP's lecturer), gabriel (former rp faci, now in SMU), jensen (rp's AA) and eddie (rp's faci). invited joanna, carol and choon hou as well but they couldn't make it. enjoyed the dinner, very fruitful, learnt alot of things.

was thinking of some issues they were talking about. especially what gab and jensen mentioned. it sounds nice to be an entrepreneur at 18 but at this position, it is also very stressful. Juggling between business, studies and family. Definately no time to think of having bf also.

i think i was also pretty stressed up with the stress i am having and yet i can't mentioned what. and it is also hard for you people to understand. there are times i really thought, why am i doing these when other 18 yr olds are playing and i can't.

ok. think and think. was chatting with weiyang about those issues. hahaha! you know, i really pity him lahz. always must bear with my stupid questions and stupid rantings. lol. but still, BIG THANK YOU to weiyang for listening.

also, a BIG BIG THANK YOU to the following people:

Eddy, Siying, Serene Tay, Hui Ling and Leon.

without you all, i think we could all just die. LOL. -choy-

Once a shifu always my respectable shifu

A bit shag as i just finished 2 events and have yet to get some sleep. Ok, never mind.

After Yew Tee CC's event ended successfully, went for lunch with Siying, Hui Ling and Jensen. Later tonight would be having a cny celebration. Jensen was asking me whether Choon Hou going a not. I have yet to tell him. How how? But jensen is right lahz. Sooner or later he will know. But i just don't want to leave a bad image in my shifu. I mean, i feel guilty for running out of my IG and doing events on my own. I just wanna try though... Haiz....

But anyway, i invited him. got turned down. I guess i'll wait for another opportunity to tell him what am i doing outside bahz.

but i will always remember, i will never walk this far if there isn't choon hou. if he has never brought me into entrepreneurship, i wouldn't even have what i have today.

Working so hard again

I can't believe it lahz. i walked so much under the hot sun, for 3 hours. BLAHZ. after returning to dunlop st, i started pasting the samples and the magnets on to the fliers. :( did it alone until xin rui came to return me my camera. conned her to help me paste. weee!!! company. finally left office at 11pm and slept only at 2am. but having some back pain so can't slp. :'(

Sick once again

serene is feeling damn bloody sick now and guess what?

i am waking up at 8.30am doing what? WORK!

omg. feeling awful.

when can i really rest well?

... ...

haiz...

suddenly miss her so so much.

would you hug me?

loves from anna-res

Why is serene still single

arrrggg... have to write one more time. HAIZ

ever thought why i am still single for so long? because of this word - PROFESSIONALISM.

how to date when i am so busy with this and that?

ok, yesh. i do date, but the guys don't understand.

i am just wondering, freaking why am i slogging through valentines' day when my staffs are happily celebrating their love, why am i slogging through chinese new year, scratching head, begging my friends for hip hop dance, running logistics, and even have to do hands on work when they are happily stuffing themselves with angpow and food.

am i the staff or am i the boss? i wonder sometimes...

I NEED A MORE COMPETENT TEAM.

and bear with it.

anywhere you go, be it my company or not, everyone is looking for PROFESSIONALISM.

and this comes with a huge price.

thanks

i am naggy. i know it.

so i shan't say it.

i realised serene have changed alot. she has learnt how to supress her feelings. she has learnt to work without emotions. but that's bad. not good for health.

and when serene wants to let it out, she couldn't find anyone. but now, she found someone.

thank you for always listening to me.

thanks for sharing.

thanks for being my punching bag.

thanks wy for everything. =)

Happy Valentines' Day

Spent my day in the microbiology lab doing some bacterial culturing with our ice cream. After that, went back to YSS to do some stuffs. It is a sad sad place. A love-hate relationship with that school. I love the schoolmates, quite hate the teachers. Because, there isn't a significant teacher I ever have there. But it was in YSS, i became buddies with Jona though we were primary school classmates. It was also there, I met wonderful friends like Angeline and Marilyn. =)

Anyway, went to Mac after that. Argued with the United Square management, waited for Leon to come, slack until 9pm+ at a coffeeshop, until Eddy came. Finalised everything.

Came back home, feeling bloody stress because of the junk my designer left me and PP isn't happy about the content. Thank goodness I do basic designing and photoshopping.

While doing the designing and feeling freaking emo, felt like crying but can't cry out, Zhao saved the night a bit. LOL! By chatting with me. We were talking about my blog stuff, making me more emo. But still can't cry out. Pathetic. Bottled and bottled, still there. = = Talked about what Lee Soo Miang mentioned this afternoon. Then talked about why 1 year passed so fast. Yeah... Then chat about what is success?

So what is success???

Realised one year really passed that fast and have achieved tons of things.

1) 7th Startup@Singapore finalist. Only polytechnic team and only fashion product in top 5
2) Elevator Pitch at Club Momo. Only polytechnic team, only youth team and was 2nd
3) Champions of Pushcart for Youthepreneur
4) Featured on CNA, Today, NewsRadio 93.8FM, Lianhe ZaoBao for Youthepreneur
5) Featured on Business Times for promoting young entrepreneurs
6) Featured on Sunday Times for neighbourhood enterprise
7) Branched Dotbox into events management from education consultancy
8) Fulfilled 1st dream, help Assisi Home & Hospice
9) Got selected into Eureka ExCo but have resigned
10) And most probably knowing all the fantastic people I met, my partners Chengze and Leon, my colleagues, my clients, the performers, my supporters, W36K, ai ke, julia.

Mummy, be proud ok? Keep your head high cause I am going to achieve MORE!
-hint- give me someone nice lahz... :x

Valentines Day

Ok. Have read tay's blog and saw the post on who's the special someone whom will date her out.

Guess what? I started thinking who's my special someone too.

Got pang sey by Dotbox people, ended up having dinner with Eddy as we both were the last to leave. So anyway, something he said during dinner, reminds me of Valentine's day.

To be frank, several guys have asked me out. I have rejected all of them. Stupid? LOL. Nope. Just leaving that day for someone else. But Valentine's day reminds me of someone...

my mum. I realised all these years, I spent my Valentine's day either at home with her or in hospital with her.

Especially last year's v.day, the most crucial period. I guess heaven was graceful enough to let her leave only slightly after v.day.

But back to someone special. It actually refered to 2 person.

1) my mum
2) HIM

I think and think, I seriously don't know how am I going to date him out. And the more I think, I think this year, I would just stay at home and sleep bahz. He may be once miracle, doesn't mean he is always a miracle.

blahz. don't ask me anything now. confused ok?

-mixed-

anyway, it's YOU! stupid...

please stop it!

As the day approaches, memories of that incident just keeps coming back.

The dark aisle, the distinctive sound of coughing and breathing, the drags from my sneakers and the commotion from a ward, desperately trying to revive a patient... my mum. From the moment they closed the curtains, I realised reality is suddenly so real. I knew she wouldn't make it and just moments ago, I was still talking to her.

The period of time, my struggles, my tireness. Everything still remains in me.


i miss you so...

Happy happy

But no one for me to share the joy with... except that wood block brother of mine. :x

Anyway, I have been to many conference and talks before. And the most recent one was in RP, for Startup@Singapore, talk by Lee Junior. But the one that really inspires me was the time I attended this talk at NUS last September. The speakers were tenCUBE boss who is a fellow 7th Startup@Singapore participant, Elim Chew, Freddy Lim from MeowMoo, NYDC's boss.

I was thinking to myself, why am I always the one attending these talks. Will there be a day, I am the one giving the talk? When will be that day. I asked. And from then on, I worked very hard in Dotbox.

Guess what? MY OPPORTUNITY IS HERE!!!
