it's weekend^^v

你说--
色。。
色。。
绿色。。
花 是红色。。
那,爱情是什么颜色?

I just get these words from one of 陈伟联 new single titled "分手的情书", translated 分手=break up; 情书=love letter, but not sure how to make the full translation, haha.. sorry, my Mandarin is not that high class yet, sad to say >.<

陈伟联(Kelvin Chen Wei Lian) is a singer from Singapore who is blind, but he can compose such a great song and lyrics, very nice~
For him, the sea is black, cloud is black, tree is black, flower is also black, then how about love? He said, he can see a white line over the black. So sad T.T
Hopefully one day he can get to see this colorful life~

Ahh, yesterday I just had the site visit to Downtown Line construction site, it was so fun^^ I learnt quite much lah from the real working life point of view.
We actually walked from Bugis to Marina Bay, and it took us about 25 minutes, tiring but fun^^v
What we learn all this time in university are only concept, and yesterday I witness that all that we have learnt are really applied in real life, and we as a Civil Engineer have a very big responsibilities to the people surrounding us, because we are actually the one who build all those buildings, floors that support us, and we walk on them everyday, roofs that protect us from sun and rain, walls that separated us from others, so that we can have a private rooms for ourselves. Those were big jobs for us! That's why civil engineers nowadays are really important for the development of a country. Just like here, the place I am in now, Singapore.
They are actually building the IR(Integrated Resort) in Marina Bay, and also Universal Studios in Sentosa Island, many many more. Singapore is a developed country, and it has great civil engineers with it also! nice^^

Imagine if Indonesia can have such great building, a sky bridge, when can Indo has such cool structure?? hais..

Ok, back to topic. Downtown Line 1 construction will finish on 2013. So, there's still a long way to go. Yesterday, I also had the chance to visit the underground tunnel! so nice! It is 30m below the ground. And imagine, we are under the ground, haha..
Of course we didn't forget to take photos, such a rare opportunities that we can actually go underground like that. Except that maybe in the future I will be working on-site, which I never think about it, I don't want to work on-site although it look fun and challenging, but I think I am just not suitable working on-site, haha..

So, LTA is actually a very good company, the personnels there are very nice also, provide us a nice service, but not sure whether I'll be working with them or not in the future, let's see~ lol..

Today is Friday already! weekend! hais.. must study also cos I got quiz next week, but like usual, always Ganbatte ne Vinvin-chan^^v

我会帮爱情塗上颜色^^

Rich vs. Poor

WHO IS RICH & WHO IS POOR?

One day, the father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to a country with the express purpose of showing him how poor people live.
They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family.
On their return from their trip, the father asked his son, "How was the trip?"
His son answered," It was great, Dad!"
Father: "Did you see how poor people live?"
Son:"Oh yeah"
Father:"So, tell me, what you have learnt from the trip?"

The son answered, "I saw that we have one dog and they have four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end.
We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night. Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon.
We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond. We have servants who serve us, but they serve others.
We buy our food, but they grow theirs. We have walls around our property to protect us, they have friends to protect them."

The boy's father was speechless.

Then his son added, "Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are"

====================================================================================
Isn't perspective a wonderful thing? Makes you wonder what would happen if we all gave thanks for everything we have, instead of worrying about what we don't have.

APPRECIATE EVERY SINGLE THING YOU HAVE!!

huhuhuhuhu~~

I thought this life is being unfair to me, I thought why everything cannot just go smoothly as it is, I hate bad circumstances, I hate being rejected, I hate cancellation of things(I just think that that is not a responsible act at all).
Just like what I feel today, I am very upset with something, why they suddenly postponed our site visit???? WHY WHY WHY?? the only reason they can give is because I am late of replying them!! Geez!! what the h*ll is that??
We supposed to have agreement already last time, and now they are planning to postpone our site visit to 2nd week of November, where everybody is preparing for final exam already, OMG! Disappointing >.<

Disappointed~


Disappointed~


I thought everything will go smoothly until next week, haiya~ I am too "polos" i guess....

My boy just now told me that this is part of the learning process and I must not think that everything is as well as I think it will be. This is just a small part of our life that we need to face, and I should not be too upset of this thing, ya I think before this I never experience rejection or anything like that, so these kind of things kinda make me quite disturbed >.<
But THANK YOU so muchh for my boy who always right beside me to listen to my whining, my stories, and being there to encourage me, support me, motivate me all the time when I am down. I appreciate it so much and sarangheyo babe :)

I need to grow up, grow up Vinvin-chan!! Cos in 3 months time you will be a 20th year old "girl"(girl or woman is more appropriate? :) already. And I will left my teenage life and go on to my adulthood~ Are you ready Vinvin-chan? hahaha..

oops, tick tock tick tock.. time shows it is 5 minutes to 2 am already, which means I really need to go to sleep already loh..
Tomorrow I need to wake up fresh and face another day in my life, yuhuu~

Nitez everyone~ Oyasuminasai~ zzzz...

double happiness in a day^^v

Yuhuu.... Yesterday can be considered as my very lucky day! why I say so?
Because yesterday @around 4.30pm in the afternoon, I have just got a call from LTA confirming the date of the site visit, OMG! I was like very happy and cannot stop laughing and smiling, maybe for people who do not know how happy this news is will think that I am crazy. But I am just so happy, it was like a burden has just gone out from this brain, woohoo~~
So, the fixed date is 29th Oct 2009. yay!

And another very good news is that I have been accepted by my IA company! yuhuuuu~~
Exactly @12am this morning, the e-mail came to my mailbox and saying that they have accepted me and guess what? No interview needed! waw.. I really can't stop smiling until now, maybe I am a bit exaggarated, but this is really a double happiness for me..
So, T.Y Lin International Pte. Ltd will be my IA company for next semester, and I am really looking forward to work with them, hopefully I can get a nice supervisor and also get a new bunch of experiences after stepping out from the company, yay!
Although the company itself is not so famous among us, never mind with that, as long as I can get experiences of being an engineer/consultant, and that is more than enough~

Today is also our 9th month anniversary, and these 2 news are a big present for me, haha~
and hopefully everything goes well for my quiz later..

Ganbatte ne Vinvin-chan~~

just another Monday~

Today is Monday already 'again'(hate Monday, why everybody hates Monday? Obviously because it means that weekend has ended and stressful days are coming~).
And oh, tomorrow I have my elective subject midterm test, and I only touched a bit of it, of course I am not too worry of it, since I S/U already, which means it will only be a pass/fail subject for me, oh yeah~~

Yesterday quite a shock for me, because I read the news that one of Boyzone's members just died when he's having his holiday! OMG! Boyzone was one og my favourite boyband at that time, one of the lead singers besides Ronan Keating, Stephen Gately(who is popular years ago since he announced to public that he is actually a GAY! *shock*)
But what is more shocking is that he was dead yesterday, I was like.. Oh My Gosh! the one whose voice I ever loved before, and now he's gone forever.. R.I.P Stephen Gately~
Boyzone will always be one of the greatest boyband in the world~

Okayy, now I need to take a bath and after that start revising for my midterm test tomorrow~ Ganbatte ne Vinvin-chan~~

very packed schedule >.<

Today is Thursday again already, and weekend is coming real soon, OMG! What have I done this whole week?? Geez, time flies and keeps flying, huhu..
Final Exam is getting nearer and nearer, and I am not ready to face it T.T
these days are like usual, busy studying and catching up with tutorials and Welfare stuffs. Studying is of course compulsory for me, everyday I spend like more than 4 hours to study, very very good student you might think, but actually it is that my brain is slower than anybody else I guess, I just do not understand why I cannot like that anybody else, who can absorb things very fast, not like me, I need to read the materials over and over again until I can fully understand, but sometimes after I spend lots of hours to study, sometimes it comes out just nothing! gosh!!

I am really really disappointed with myself, don't know why.... must work hard, but also must work smart, that is what my boy always tells me.. but.....
why i just cannot????

Site visit oh site visit.. I need the approval from LTA pleaseeeeee...... I don't like waiting and I hope they can get to me ASAP already. So, I can get rid of this packed stuffs in my brain *pray pray*

Now I need to go back study again, ganbatte ne to myself~

a day with him~

Yesterday, 3rd October 2009, I spent my 2nd last day of recess with my boy, we went to the Family Day organised by his company, ExxonMobil. We went there at around 8.15am with MRT, and arrived at 9am something, then we hopped on the free shuttle bus provided by his company too. Along the way on the bus, I can see the construction of Universal Studios which will soon be opening next year 2010. I hope it will be a fun one^^v

Then we arrived at around 9.30am, register at the booth and get some souvenirs too, after that we had some coconut drinks =)
The event was very crowded, many families with their children and parents were coming along, some were only couples just like us ;P
oh yeah, we also wore a couple t-shirt, and there's one photographer who asked us to pose, because he said that our t-shirt are so cute, haha..
There were quite lots of booth which is funfair stalls, air tattoo brush(we did make one on our hands^^), candy floss, kite making, sand art, hair braiding, ice cream stall, and a stage performance too. The performance were such as Michael Jackson show, the Wicked Aura(almost like the Strike Force that I saw in Red Cross night, which is cool ;P), and stage games, dance performance by the Indian, and most importantly is the lucky draw, got lots of prizes given out(20++ for grand prizes, and 10++ the others), just imagine how rich the company is =)

And my boy is always very very lucky, lucky aura is around him I think, because he always gets a grand prize, like last time in DnD(Dinner and Dance), he got the 1st grand prize which is a PSP(wow!), and yesterday he got I forgot which no of grand prize it was, but he got a vacuum cleaner o.O (not bad, just that he does not really need it at the moment).

We also tried the Kayaking, first time trial =)) and it was fun, but tiring, haha.. my boy also tried archery and some funfair games.
They finished the event at around 4pm, and then we decided to watch Phobia 2 at 6.45pm in Vivocity (actually I planned it already ;P). We arrived in Vivo at around 5pm, but ticket and met his friend there, after that we went to have dinner at Dian Xiao Er, a chinese restaurant. The food was quite nice =) His niece also came to join us after some moment, and so we all chit chat and finish eating at around 6.45pm, so we hurried to the cinema, and his friend together with his niece had decided to watch other movie because they do not like to watch horror movies =)
So, Phobia 2 is quite scary at first, but it becomes funny at the end of the movie, don't know why they make it like that, but I enjoyed the movie so much(cos 1st time watching horror movies with my boy =))

We finished watching movie at 9pm and we headed outside Vivocity to enjoy the nightwind and scenery(cos yesterday was the Mid Autumn Festival, and I expected to see the full moon, but unfortunately yesterday the weather was not so fine, so cannot see T.T)
And after a while, we went home bringing lots of memories and happiness of course. I enjoyed it very much to spend the wholeeee day with my boy ;P
Hope we would have another trip again~~~

another recess week~

Geez, it's been a month since I last put a scratch on my blog T.T gomen ne~
and time really flies! I've been in the last 4 days of recess week which also means that after that work hard is really needed already, cos in 1 month more I'll have my 5th Final Exam in NTU, siannnn~
now I am getting worried of not getting approval to visit the companies for site visit that we have to organise starting next week, since the company never reply my e-mail! I am so so getting worried!! hopefully tomorrow they will reply me *pray pray*

I've just realised being a leader is not as easy as I imagined before, because previously I always am the subcomms who always get asked to do this and that, and now I am the one who has to tell people to do this and that, but sometimes I just want to do them all by myself, don't wanna let others do it, strange huh..
I should have tried to let go of this burden, yeah maybe starting next semester I will try to let go a bit ;P

Today I just spend my time at my tiny room and studying Environmental Engineering which is not interesting at all, but still I have to pass this course what, lols..
This Saturday will be going to Sentosa with my boy, really look forward to it, bcos it's the 1st time that we'll be going to the beach together =)
must apply lots of sunblock so we won't get burnt when we got home, yeah!
(and maybe I can see the new very much anticipated Universal Studios that will soon be opened in Sentosa! *happy*)

wishlists:
  • watch Phobia 2 and the Proposal
  • get everything settled ASAP for site visits

time to relax, lalalala~~
