check out the website i've tagged on my list "street fashion"peeps!
[ http://thesartorialist.blogspot.com/ ]
it is one of the stylish-ist blog i've ever encountered, with a combination
of SLR photography and high street fashion!

both which are something i lurrrvveee and i appreciate the art that come out of it!
well, if you don't know about me..i'm a science geek student. hardcore molecular sci.
but to have a balanced life so i don't end up looking like albert einstein, i also take time to
mingle with art and photography..although i have stopped painting and pencil sketching
ever since i've came to NUS..but i have never stop the passion for it! my prized works
are all stored in a container back at home..tee hee
since i've been eying the art shop at the highest level in takashimaya..garrhh
it's just to ex for the material to be sold there...someday this year i'm goin to learn something a new on oil painting on canvas or "ink blots" in colour! yummy~
we'll see..

i came upon the site i mentioned when i'm surfing some linked sites from vogue
absolutely great photographs and high technique shots on people walking
on the streets of paris, milan, new york. and oh boy
they really do dress well, and each individual has their own style and "story"
truly living in the coco chanel quote "Fashion fades, only style remains the same"..
love the coats and jackets and scarf..and how gorgeous the ladies of milan =)
you don't see such gorgeous-ness in singapore..haha

..LOL perhaps i should prepare myself for a delicious this: *whistle pee witt!*Nice little baby. You wait till may bank acct is sufficient ok....rolf..

this is absolutely a "just do it or die" month for me. jitters=S
wah kao. my shoulders never felt heavier.
i have written and going to write a whole list of deadlines.
and canceling few of the tasks..would mean a reward for me!
well..i always looked for a balance in life..all work and no play is a no-no for me..
so in all, i'm determine, bertekun and berusaha
to finish watever i set, so i can go down to jb to meet mummy this sat before she flies..
and watchman!

talking about mothers..last week i went home to visit my grandma
who has been "sick"telling us that she does not have the energy to walk.
the docs say she's fine. except for low lvl of osteoporosis.
today in class i finally understood her disease
when prof tan said about psychosomatic disorder.
it's all mental. really. i can see it. sigh.....
and such disorder are even more difficult to treat. and to face.
i just hope she's going to be fine, provided that the sons give her the attention that she yearns.
love.

it has been such a pleasant quiet cold day..with light grey overhead clouds.
i have always love the rain. feels like they washed away all the troubles, and the haze of cuz..
love the fresh breeze after the rain =). and nothing beats from sitting at my fav corner
in science library, observing the great dark sky, the muggers, the so familiar smell, the books
the silence..
such simplicity do make wonders for me..yes, i wish i could rot here and never return to lab!
haha..

here's something i would like to dedicate to my best friend.
ps: even we couldn't get the jason mraz tics (sobz sobz!)..but still, u enjoy the song ya!
jia you in your lab!

" Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again...ohh
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will"

20 months. and more to come. love.

it's been a long long long time after the last post.
and basically so much had happened, that it would take a
whole page to describe all the events. with the cny celeb and all..wow.

right now, i'm sitting in front of my lappy, having about 10 minutes to kill.
at 8 am on a sunday, BRIGHT nice WARM sunday morning.
i should be either sleeping or yum cha at clementi.
but no, i'm going into lab later. =( THAT is not positively motivating at all.

i'm starting to DOUBT. (not the movie Doubt) Doubt as in is this the right thing at all.
overwork, underpaid that's what a research brings you. the only satisfaction
you can see out of it is at the end of the tunnel. results.
but the learning the knowledge the skills (lab/non-lab) is worthwhile.
but to be a realistic individual, it's a balance between both.
right now, i'm happy with the ooze of skills and info.
but in the future? lionel is right, if i were to do this for the rest of my life
would i be happy? would i find meaning out of it?

well, there's only one conclusion. i would if i were able to capitalize my
uni education and trainings in the INDUSTRY in some biotech pharma companies
which are listed on the stock exchange board so employees will have dividends and bonus
every year end. that would be an incing and cherry above the cake. it is just like engineers
working with exxon mobil, shell or accounts working for pwc or kpmg.

but as life it seems, it's never going to be perfect.

it's time to start work...

Wednesday, January 14, 2009

i think i'm too busy to write about anything here.
well, even if i have spare time..i will watch my ju guang poi hei.
yes, this blog will be officially quiet for the next 4 months.
in which i will do whatever i can to bring out the best in me.
a lot of hard work and a whole lot of luck!
for my last semester here at nus.
i am thankful for my best friend, my companion and my love
Li ren for ALL of his time, ALL of his support
and motivation and belief in me, for being a lending ear,
a hug when my experiment fail, for bringing a smile in the face when i am down
and above all, for just being there for me.
here's to an amazing journey for both of us..cheers..

anyway bintan was fun! well, it was pleasant the hotel ppl are really friendly
and made our stay pretty convenient with transportation and island tour
hmm the food there so-so only ba, the or chian and seafood..well, i could find
something nicer in ecp or at telok sengat. the good thing is the food there is cheap.
ah if the hotel is by the beach, with little open bar and a bit of jazz music
and a nice cocktail sea breeze, then it would be perfect. =)
so bali anyone?

oh i'm soo tired..i should go get some sleep now.
