  • Relationship with Noh deteriorated
  • Drifted away from mira, due to her and my lack of time spent
  • Bro Shahir got into Temasek Poly
  • Partied full-time
  • Stopped praying
  • Severed all ties with Rudy Daniel Ong, my very first real boyfriend
  • Rashes outbreak
  • Curfew fully lifted by parents
  • Broke up with noh
  • Got close to Kimberly Gillis, before she left for her hometown Vancouver
  • Graduated from Diploma in Multimedia Arts (Interactive)
  • Continued Bachelor of Interactive Arts
  • Finally got my ZOUK Membership card!
  • Got ecstatic literally
  • Worked with IP Technology Solutions Pte Ltd as a Web Designer for 4 months.
  • Got close to foam
  • Represented Lasalle-SIA to tokyo for a 2004 Asia-Europe Media Art Camp for 2 weeks

The ending of one chapter, the beginning of another. 2004 was a bad year, for me, and for a lot of people i know. "New year resolutions" (as if) :

  • Fly with Fork Concepts
  • Work harder, smarter
  • Reduce smoking
  • Reduce booze
  • Reduce zouk
  • Mend things with noh
  • Severed all ties with those unworthy people
  • Save money to visit either a) Gift in Europe or b) Anisah in States

For all my friends, I wish you a prosperous and joyful year ahead.

Free again.

Hey. Guess what? I'm back to freelance again! Yes, only after 3 days of sitting 8 hours in the office.
Finally negotiated with the company to let me do it on a freelance basis instead of me being on the payroll, working full time.
Managed to finalise the business registration this afternoon with lyn babe.
Design + Multimedia + Marketing + PR
We are in business. (Heh. We actually started working over a month before we even settled on a company name!)
The start of another episode. After my first company Interactive Graphik, I hope this will be another success!
We are on our 5th client now.
Waiting for all these buggers to sign quotations, and then I'd have to work my arse off to meet deadlines.
Quite amazing actually.
Oh yeah, now... I can do lotsa things. Since I'm back working from home again.... Own time, own target. I just love it!
The match starts at 7.23pm later today, STAR Sports - Singapore VS Myanmar (1st Leg)
Noh said he wont be playing but he's benched, coz he's still injured... oh well.
Yaya has already been sms-ing me asking my plans for friday. Gosh she can be annoying sometimes lah. She bloody knows where I'm gona be.
Dmitri will be spinnin' at zouk so duhhhhhhhhh...
Argh my sinus is killing me now... Think i woke up from the wrong side of the bed this morning... My nose has been runny like an ancient tap splashing water continously for hours.... Ggggrrr...
Gota go pop the pill now to make this liquidy shit stop splurting out of ma nose...

Why aye

You know.. Now i feel stagnant. When i feel stagnant, I duno what to write. But I feel like writing. Coz i am bored. I've got lotsa stuffs to settle, but big boss ain't in town so I can't make decisions. So everything is practically halted for the moment. You know, it's kinda bored when you're not in town, hahahaha...

Wishy-washy

I wish, last night didn't happen. I wish I hadn't met Ab. I wish I hadn't met J. I wish I wasn't so emotional. I wish there's an ON-OFF button somewhere in my head. I wish I hadn't gone to lengths for some unworthy persons. I wish things were simpler. I wish life was more beautiful. I wish men were more sensitive. I wish I was still feeling what I felt 3 years ago. I wish I was a better daughter. I wish I was a better friend. I wish I had loved myself more. I wish for a lot of things. But the thing about wishes is that, it doesn't come true. Not for me, at least. You always want what you cannot have. You often crave for things afar. You take people who love you for granted. And then in the process you lose yourself.
