Countdown 9 days

It's 9 days to my (first?) solo backpacking trip to Melbourne BUT I haven't started planning anything at all. Super stressed... >.<

Guess it's all because this is a super random and impulse trip. Started all because of utter sian-ness at PEA, dealing with Mr Murphy Excel Word and staying back late nights in office, plus the dread that I wouldn't be able to go on longer-than-5-days trip April - Nov. It depresses me and so when I saw the Jetstar Promo on Friday, I quickly sms-ed my boss on Sat and booked the tix on Sun night I think. And yeah... now i'm left with 9 days to research and prepare. cool. 

BUT don't get me wrong, despite the stress, I am ABSOLUTELY looking forward to the trip because it's going to be a test of my independence (and low inclusion personality)... Looking forward to great photo opportunities, provided my camera doesn't fail me. I've seen several lovely pics of the Great Ocean Road so I hope to capture some of my own too. The only sad thing is I don't drive so I am pretty much dependent on the day tours or public transport, and day tours are COSTLY >.<

Sigh. 

Oh well, good luck to the trip planning. It's like a test of my event planning/ project management skills in super tight timeline. But I think I will survive. *Fingers crossed* 

Zhentoutao Said... In case anything happens (as with all unpredictable calamities these days) please know that I do love you all truly, even though I low inclusion. *MUACKS*

郁闷一周。

郁闷的一周，因为我时常被科技耍得团团转，真让人生气！所有的工作都白费了， 因为电脑多次紧急关闭，而我又来不及存档。真的很懊恼！

回家的路上，突然想起了几米的书，想着书里的图画， 就会有种无忧无虑的感觉。或许因为他画的都是孩子的奇幻世界，很有爱丽丝的感觉，所以读的时候，总觉得像小孩子一样的联想故事情节。

我也希望自己能出这样的书。。。 让人感觉舒服的书。

Love beyond reason

Admist the gloom of recent disasters in Japan, I found new kawaii friends on Sunday to keep my spirits up. 小蓝 was a present from a dear colleague, JT2, while 小灰was my prez to myself. It's kinda like a once-off indulgence, to celebrate that pay is in, and also the recent announcement that I am promoted. 

I've realised that many people really do go in to look at promotion announcements. Was even more surprised that they emailed me to congratulate me. I took 12 - 24 hours later to read that same announcement and realised that they were promoted too... oops. was pleasantly surprised that people were genuinely happier than I was that I was promoted. Feel blessed and loved in a way, though I feel guilty about my "still-can-be-further-improved" report card. 

Zhentoutao Said... news about Japan is simply devastating, and the repercussions are setting off, in a way... Really hope that more people could be saved and less lives lost. 

Random as at 11 March 11

Went to MBS last sunday with XQ and had a wonderful time just lazing around the mall, eventually settling down at TWG for super long chat, and tea, and tea jelly. It's been a while I suppose. But it was a great meet-up because it inspired to take out my long forgotten lomo cameras and think of how to use them again. so more photo-taking to come. :)

As at 10 Mar, think i need to plan for a vacation soon. Probably April. Because I'll be busy all the way from May till Nov le. Where shall I go? Backpack probably to some country for photo-taking. Trying to buy less things from travel nowadays. Plus latest news - Shufen from Synergy gave birth to a happy cute baby girl of 3.33kg. Meet the new princess! Cute! ^^

At at 11 Mar 1.31am, I think i'm suffering from a sleep-deficient high. Slept at 3.40am yesterday cos I was rushing the visual comms assignment. Was hoping to get started on some work but I kinda cannot make it le. Super stonez and puked out dinner just now. darn gross. I seem to puke more often nowadays. It's pretty worrying actually. Guess I'll arrange to go for a full body check up soon. 

Argh... on another note, I was officially informed on 10 Mar that I've been promoted. Congrats to me. More shit camps on the way. -_-"

Amigurumi {like}

Borrowed this book about amigurumi from the library and fell in love with the kawaii figurines. My next target for crochet projects. But I wonder if this is too morbid for a wedding gift. Hmmm.
