b.i.r.t.h.d.@.y.s are sweet
It was a beautiful morning on last Saturday. I don't know. I somehow felt .. definitely not 23. Maybe much older. Somehow... my birthday this time around seemed sweeter.. with tinges of bitterness.
For one.. this time around... I have someone else to share it with. William had wished me happy birthday the previous night... and the morning too.. and it just felt so nice to hear someone special say it. Waking up to his voice.. brings a happy warmth into the current chill of my life. Knowing that this time, there's an additional special someone in my life who would love and cherish me for who I am - makes this birthday somehow... more romantic.
And he's coming home very soon... another nice birthday present to look forward to. And then his mum just had to call me to complain about more stuff. hehehe. Ah well...
Work that day was minimal.. I finally cleared away the junk from my table. My bin was overflowing as usual. Heh. Currently i'm replacing the junk with more junk. Gosh.
And then there was the e-mail criticising about the November and December issues of the magazine. Yar. I know my photography sucks. Point noted. I did not apply as a photographer in this company anyway. So put up with the crappy photos or don't read MYC!news. Heh. Phooey.
And then Jason and Wai Leng took me to Chillis KLCC to mum mum. it was a really nice lunch... no frills but lots of jokes and laughs... and a bunch of waiters singing the birthday song. Then we hopped over to Kinokuniya and had to drag Wai Leng out of the romance section.
I like hanging out with them. Definitely better than hanging out with some kids. Maybe that's why i have more older and much more matured friends. hmm... maybe that's why i feel old..
And then tons of other friends had wished me happy birthday. Friends that I had thought that I had lost.. and friends who has loved me for many many years. I'm glad to have them.
Maybe it's also the shit that i've been through for the year. With the car accident and the new job and the financial stuff and the parents stuff..and then the issue with the 'kids'... Gah. it's a wonder that i'm still here to type all of these out.
I have learnt lots. I have also loved lots. But I have also learnt to hate too. Sometimes you just can't be nice forever to everyone. Maybe they should just take their own issues and shove it up their own asses. Hehe.. that would save lots of trouble and hokey pokey.
Yes... but all in all... .. All i hope for is for my birthday wish to come through.. someday. *sighs*

Dear Sky
Yes. I am an evil person. Yes. I am upset about my boyfriend's studies. Yes. I suck at photography. Yes. i write about people in my blog. Yes. My writing seems evil and mean to the person that's I'm writing about but seriously, it's just my honest thoughts.
Just let me be, Sky. I don't recall writing mean things about you but i'll admit that i am the evil person that you keep calling me if it makes you happy. i am evil to other pple but i don't think i was evil to you. I'm sorry that you were not happy in my company but honestly, nothing other than praises for you came from my lips when you were applying for the position. I admire you for your capabilities as a fantastic designer - i had put in a good word for you when your current company called for a review - i recognised your strengths and i thought that you'd enjoy being in the events line and i saved the graphic designer position for you as a friend. I was happy when you got the new post at your new company cause you deserved it. My boss was upset that you were leaving when i told him, but i just told him nicely in an email saying that you had better opportunities elsewhere and that he should let you leave with good grace. Maybe you misunderstood me. That blog about the balls and the aquarium was just an amusement for myself. Maybe you misunderstood me again. Other than that... .. maybe you didn't enjoy the free movies and events that i had invited you to go to in the previous months. Was i being evil and mean at that time?
I'm just very sorry for whatever i have done wrong in spoiling that friendship. I thought that at one point in time, i was your friend.. someone to vent your sadness and frustrations and your problems in life.. and you were my shoulder to cry on when things were just not going right for me. but i don't know.. somehow.. some where along the way.. i don't know what happened.. especially within the past few months.. i just don't know why you hate me.

A 'f.r.e.s.h' night!
It was a night of grape flavoured Sprite, tissue flecked skin, high heel lubang injury on my foot, a ham-sap - thong wearing MC, a crazed designer (adorned with a santa hat from Cold Storage) let loose with a Sony camera with super charged batteries and memory stick and great college kids to boot!.
*me and carol and her santa hat*

~an original burpy-@rt
Fresh Faces 2006 was to choose the 12 college kids from a total of 23 that would appear on our MYC!new cover like Rachel Heng for December MYC!news. The preparation for the event was extensive - but not as stressful as M&M's Battle of the Bands had been - maybe cause i had HUGE help from Carolin (my new designer), Daniel (my new flash guru) and Jon (our new one-leg-kick event consultant). They have been GREAT.
*guess whose fingers are those eh? heheheh. it's carol the wacko-santarina and sara the new copywriter.. trying to farm moss on her hair.. er.. yar.. *

The bands were noisy to my opinion - although Liang gave a very nice start to the event wit his RnB selections. The rest however, like Vespertine and some other noisy band, sounded like mangled squeals from the sound system. Urban Groove, the dancers, were quite ok-lar.. been seeing too much of the Break dance - hip hop articles on the magazine to be much bothered by them. And I think some of the bitches had flicked some of the Stila gifts for the winners. Gah.
*angelica the drama queen & sean chin the.. pink lipped guy*
~an original p@ssion-@rt
It was a flurry of funny moments - the hair dresser had turned a few of the contestants into miniature versions of the Lion from the film Narnia - you should see the scandalized look on the leng luis. Hahah. Makes me appreciate the iron straightener that I had bought a few years back. and someone had broken high heels.. i thought that was funny... the curious look of her friend with the broken heel in one hand.. trying to be helpful.. heheh.
*the striped head of Dominic.. he didn't even know that he had different coloured hair..*

Daniel Lee's appearance had reduced a floor-full of aunties to 12 year old teenages. Gosh.. they were squabbling about who was to hold the camera and which area of their panties gets to be autographed by the jinjang looking ah beng. His songs were okay-only-la. Nonetheless, i had asked him to autograph a copy of the MYC!news magazine 'just in case' he gets famous and then i can sell his autograph on e-Bay.
*poor daniel... what did he do to deserve Carol's wrath!... nyehehehe*
~an original burpy-@rt
Ahh... and now that load's off my chest... Now gotta rush for the January Magazine. GAH!.. Time flies so fast!.. It's 9 days before Christmas already.. and i haven't gotten everyone's Christmas pressie yet and and and.... damn.. it's the end of the year already.
*... ... ... ... ... its carol's doing....she's high and wacko on steriods and famous amos cookies .. *
