  • Blog: Tuesday, Aug 12

    Tuesday, Aug 12, 2008 7:50PM / Members only

    Woo Hoo...Its been two months plus since I started any finger exercise here.  Haha..I'm back to blog.  Nothing much to say in fact.  At work, I'm training up a new staff; things have been going pretty good for me actually but still busy.  The new staff hsn't been much of a problem *fast learner*.  Been able to spend time with some friends and enjoy great food though and here are just some pictures. 

     

    Thats me and Sri, my malay friend almost like a sister to me

     

     

    That's all folks..

  • Dislocated Bone

    Monday, Jun 9, 2008 2:22PM / Members only

    I'm at home today and it sucked missing work again.  Still got loads of pending work to be cleared from last week's absence and today I had to stay home because the whole stiff neck thingy has spread to the lower back.  I had difficulties getting out of bed this morning; actually my sleep was disrupted - woke up at 5 plus in the morning, so much earlier than my usual wake up time which is at 7:30am.  I couldnt tilt up head up or bend down.  My whole freaking body had to be straight and a little movement to the left or right would send tons of lightning strucked pains to my muscles.  Somehow, I laughed because i felt like a total retard.  Missed breakfast because I hadn't had the appetite.  Sheesh.. my boss must be cursing and swearing right now.  Anyways, I've already made my way to the Physician and was told that the intensive pain caused was because the back of my bone was slightly dislocated.  It would take a few days to heal.  I wouldn't say its an immediate cure but at least something.  It still hurts when i move but so much better than it was in the morning. 
  • My Interview and Upcoming Fashion Show Event

    Sunday, Jun 8, 2008 3:52PM / Members only

    Yesterday I had my brother's friend come over to our place to conduct an interview with me.  He's actually doing it for a school project on Life of Women in the Working Society Now and am really honoured to accept this interview except that i had to fake my age since their age target is on women who's in their thirties.  It was rather a formal interview with the voice recorder placed on the table with the list of questions.  My, oh my...I would say its really not easy to find the answers to the questions asked because it involves both men and women in different perspectives in life.  I get questions like, "do you think women are more dominant than men in today's mordern working society?"  " why do you think so?"  "in which perspective in life made you see that as a proof?"  gee...what an interview with over forty questions - it took us about half an hour or so to finish the talk.  next he will be scrutinising my daily life and taking pictures of what i do etc..  it was abit weird at first having someone follow you around, asking you what time you get up in the morning, what time you reach home from work etc..  after a while, i just allow myself to be comfortable and act like no one's around.  today i had a meeting for this coming June 15's Philippines Independance Day and for the upcoming Fashion Show event to be held at '7107 Flavours', a famous filippino restaurant here in Singapore. We have quite a few filippino celebrities flying in from the Philippines to attend and perform at the coming event.  I will be the model for the fashion parade and this year, they did something different.  We were given big white umbrellas to decorate on it with flowers and the best design will be given a prize plus all the models will be given a Certificate - FINALLY...At least some recognition in this Industry.  Hahaha...  I love being part of the Filippino life because they're always so upbeat and sporty in such organisations even helping out to whip out delicious meals after the events.  The wonderful team work I must say.  So I will be kept busy for the next of two weeks and then have the pictures posted up here.  And yes, my brother's friend did followed me to the meeting and man, he was damn lucky to see all the beautiful models; all mixed blood and we both share the same common blood and that is the filippino blood..  I have to thank my mum for making every opportunity possible for me to experience my other half of my life as a filippina.  What a great day except for a really bad stiff neck. 
  • Blog: Friday, Jun 6

    Friday, Jun 6, 2008 2:38PM / Members only


    Great!  Today I'm at home able to blog because I'm on MC.  No, don't get me wrong, I did not plan this "rest day" as I've got diahorrea since last night.  Got nothing to do at home after finishing with the housework but am so HAPPY i get to blog again.  Hahahaha..I missed blogging.  You seldom see my blogs nowadays, don't you?  Not to worry, I have so many things to talk about and show.

    Lately I signed up for a Hip Hop class, now that sounds abit odd for a 25 year old office girl to do right?  but I have always loved dancing but havent got a chance to learn it until my third sister pushed me to do so and get a life. Without hesistation, I added some colour in my life.  The first hip hop lesson got us doing body stretches and I haven't been working out for a really long time now.  The dance instructor was young and really good looking; his looks could pass off as Edison Chen.  The sickening thing was there were many leg stretches and nearly got myself an immediate leg cramp.  There was one part my sister laughed really hard that got the whole class laughing at me; gosh i felt like a total idiot. 

    Okay I don't know what happened here but we were supposed to stretch out our right leg straight and bend down on our left knee and tilt up the lower part of the leg. Next step was to get our right hand going all the way back to hold our left feet for eight counts.  As I can see from the LARGE MIRROR, everyone managed to do as instructed and I was having problems to reach that area; oh gosh, just say that I can't reach my darn feet.  I was struggling.  My sister was right behind me and the instructor in front.  It got so painful that I had to squeeze from a big stretch to the smallest stretch and when i managed that small stretch so that I can touch my princess feet, I lost my balance and my whole body fell to the left.  Thats when my Genuis sister laughed out really hard.  I was so embarassed, felt so old and stupid. The Dance Instructor moves were too fast for us to catch up but neverthless, lessons were fun, keeping us fit and healthy at same time.  I really enjoyed myself and looking forward to more lessons to improve. 

    These few days I have been finding for a good singing school with afforable fees but havent been able to do so.   The first singing course wasted my time and money spent was not worthwhile.  I don't understand how a Singing School could provide Singing Instructors who can't really sing well themselves to the extend that they had no power to reach the high note and constantly cancel lessons at the very last minute. Its not the first time that I travelled from work to Chinatown and had them calling me that lesson is cancelled today because they had another student coming in for lessons.  They are not organised and got me really angry each time they do that.  For goodness sake, I am a student as well and signed up for an Individual Course. For half a year, I have been paying $198 every month in utter disappointment.  I thought the instructors were responsible for picking out songs for you to practise instead I had to find my own songs and when I did, my instructor would say, why did you pick this song, this doesn't suits you blah blah blah...Okay for that, I respect his opinion but since I can't pick a good song to learn then why didn't you guide me and he said I had to know which one is good.  Alright, so now I have to be psychic.  In the end, I terminate my singing lessons with this particular school in Chinatown.  I felt very sad and really disppointed but my vocal range did improved whenever the Music Director coached me personally.  His singing is fantastic but unfortunately he can't coach me all the time and I always had my instructor changed which makes it difficult for both sides as each individual has their own teaching technique and for that, I had to adjust the way I sing to suit their ears.  Now I can't even make up for any singing lessons worth of $2000+ I put in.  They wouldn't answer my calls whenever I asked when I can go for my makeup lessons.  In a way or another, I know I got cheated.  Its so hard to trust a good singing school. 

    Anyway, I have already let the matter rest and do not want to pursue in it.  I just take it that I paid a big price for a lesson learnt in life.

    Other than that, I've been seriously taking driving lessons.  Why seriously?  Well, when i was eighteen years old, I went for driving lessons on and off until I had to re-open my account with the school four times.  I was young and always wanted to have fun; to mark it all, i wasn't serious in life and so wasted my entire youth on having fun and gaining no achievements. Driving lessons have been good.  After I get my driving license for motorcar,  I will take up motorbike riding lessons.  I want to keep on learning new things and stuffs.  I have always been thirsty for knowledge in all areas. 

    Last week, I was at the West Side of Singapore and found the surroundings similar to the Singapore zoo.  Here are some pictures I took on my cellphone...

     

    Bird says:  No, I was not borned a coloured blind bird, I was borned a bird with a coloured   body.

     

     

    Bird says:  Darn it, put your camera away.  I'm not facing it until I had my makeup on.

     

     

    Dog says:  I may be fierce but can be tamed.  Take me back home..

     

     

    Dog says:  Look at me, I feel so bored in here...

     

     

    Dog says:  I know I resemble Garfield or maybe a furry pillow but for now, I wanna sleep..

     

     

    This is my Underground Music Tunnel

     

     

     

    Bird says:  Senorita V has took good care of me all these while..

     

     

     

     

    Couple Birds says to each other: stop denying that our spilt did not involve a third party.

     

     

    Bird says:  This is what you get for using GATSBY Hair Cream; HARD SPIKES...

     

     

    Dogs says:  Don't take us for a ride, you'll regret you ever did that.

     

     

    here i looked so worn out but all ready for smiles...

     

    LASTLY.....

  • my vesak day!

    Monday, May 19, 2008 2:53PM / Members only

    today's vesak day and so is a public holiday for everyone.

    i'm feeling so bored and sleepy but the weather's so hot today and i really dont know what else can i do since i feel super lazy to do any cleaning.  i would love to snuggle under my blanket but the sun is too hot for me to do so.  

    watched the world music awards, tuned in to the radio and did my surfing but after that, its back to a boring day.

    but then again, how nice it is to relax and not work.
