the Atlanta guys are going back










Tom asked if i have alot of feel today. It intensed my emotions for a sec. I tried my best to suppress it. I really dont wanna have tears sprint to the corners of my eyes. Thats so kiddish! But this bunch of americans or rather kids have made my day everyday of my working days this past 3 weeks. Was it merely 3weeks it feels longer. Damn im sad they have to abandon me in batam. All but one Atlanta guy are done with transfering the PUV moulding knowledge from Atlanta, Georgia to the Batam site. And they are going back home today. They often asked me one question: When are you going back to US? ''-_-





Dearest Brad! (He's quite a brat though, almost all the time!)
Roy (my snake-game competitior in our hp) & Steven (who's still here and from PharmEng too.




















Jarred (who always attempt to be a nice brother to me...but then..-He's also known as the Dad/Mum) & the Kenny (also known as the Dad/Mum.)

Robert is still here. Brad might be coming back. So, till then, i'll be mixing with the locals. This Sam who tried to ask me out....heard he's married? *faint

update from US






















So Mike baby brought me to High Rocks on Sunday and i had a great time. We had breakfast at a grocery store which serves delicious cheese omelet with potatos. Mike had a crossiant. You know the one thing i love about US- the diners-cos i like ALL their breakfasts. Not so much about other meals though-having burgers, pasta and french fries and satisfying your temptations all the time makes you sick. So i hadn't had french fries for many months- i have not start on it; i made dinner for Mike yesterday evening -stir fried snow/snap peas with black bean sauce and herbal chicken with some rice. I hope he really likes it cos pyschologically i feel healthier eating all that - no cheese and minimial oil. opps, as usual I digress to talk about food.



What I wanna share is Birdy brought me to Tohickon Creeks and it was just like the set in Twilight. I was just commenting that he wouldn't know how romantic the plot of Twilight is cos he didn't watch it. I'll upload the pics soon but it was just soooo sooo beautiful. We took a hike with great weather -around 20degrees and went peeping through the holes of the fences looking down at a creek which flows from the Delaware River. Baby said that there used to be Indian tribes hunting in the area but the cruel white people came and took over the area. I saw some groups of people doing rock climbing -trecherous! I mean the mountain's so vertical, there's no slope leading down to the creek. So baby said he'll bring me camping here so we can set up a fire and BBQ mushmellows. I'm so excited. There were some big rocks there too, we lay down on a big rock and took in the crisp clean air. I enjoyed the few seconds laying down quite a bit.



There are some bikers cycling through the hike too. It would require a mountain bike cos' the route's uneven - it has got tree branches or even animals on it. As we hike down to the creek and walked along it i got comfortable and took off my shoes and took a dip in the waters-it felt like ice water. I managed a 3minutes in it stepped up 2 rocks posed for some pictures and ran back to the shore.



What Mike got really excited about was we saw a snake and he held it. I brought a branch to him. He branched down the snake's head and he held up his body. If that snake were poisonous and bit him i would be angry about the silliness of us even picking up the snake. It looked like a copperhead.



It hadn't been that long since i came back to Mike. But he was busy yesterday night doing work- data conversion, and taking care of his snakes. I could feel it was one of these days he had before he calls me.



I was awaiting EDB's reply forever. Think refreshing my yahoo every 15minutes. They said they are reviewing my case. I got a potential job offer in Canada and i'm awainting EDB to defer my bond so i could work there. THANKS darren, jiaying and bestie Weiling and all the rest who had encouraged and prayed for me!! I really really apreciate it now that i've not one but 2 choices. Though this Canada offer is still pending, PharmEng manager offered me a 3 months contract in Singapore starting coming Monday so which means i've to fly back sooon!! Its a very short contract but i've never before offered such a good pay. I was thinking if i would to take up this position what's after 3 months? God what's your plan for me? GMAT? MBA? Jesus has the plan but i really have not seen it yet. So right now i'm just awaiting EDB's reply so i know the future. Thanks to Val too, who has told me to be more confident in my job search (thought i haven't put in too much effort...). Meanwhile i just don't know how i can go on without Mike.

Mike also brought me to his parent's. Which was an amazing amazing house and there was this vampire teeth that you could wear, Birdy wore it and i was terrified. He looked very funny with the teeth on him and he was saying like you like the vampire from Twilight? You like vampires? Besides phobia of heights that make my kness shake i'm really afraid of mascots/cosplays. He actually brought the teeth back home and wore it that night.

So this a long long post i'm at Starbuck's i'm supposed to do GMAT but i'm just too sleepy cos i stayed up with mike last night but i guess i'll go back to it; Victoria's Secret having a discount. Letmme check that out first.

love!

missing you

I miss my PT Cruiser.








I miss US.
(FYI, the ice-cream on the left is mine).














I miss you.. I tried shifting my attention to Jesse Mccartney (so cute!!!) and One Republic (Damn cool!!!)






but I still miss you..








It's very hard dealing with missing you. I'm sorry I've to wine each time we talk, but WHEN ARE WE GOING TO HANG OUT???? Not having you around is a lonely everday..It eats into me every single day. Missing each other's calls is worse. I still don't know how to live my life without you..I wish i could be there! Happy Birthday!!

bad economy

Pfizer's merging with Wyeth, spending 68billion to acquire the latter. The world's top drug maker is worried about its earnings and position staying on top? Although it is still short of 11 billion to match Glaxowellcome merging with Smithkline Bee Cham, it is a big issue. Why is it not when the average Joe has stopped going to the Macdonald's in US, and starting to make it's own burger at home? What about my favorite brand Abercrombie and Fitch, also doing Hollister, having a serious dip in it's sales, and laying off staff? I've never seen American Eagles Outfitter stocks this low ever before since it started around 1993. And these are just brands i used to deal closely with, i have not mentioned the rest.. (i know..i DO shop..)

People have been saying after Chinese New Year, the bosses are going to lay off staff and we will feel WORSE about the economy.

For your information.....i'm unemployed.....

twilight





Pardon me, but like the rest i watched Twilight and simply got drawn into it. Like how on earth could the Cullens stay drinking just animal blood (I bet author Stephanie Meyer watched Interview With the Vampire where you know, Brad Pitt drank animal blood). You see how DAMN COOL Edward is, simply can't imagine him feasting and sucking on rat's blood. Everything is just so crisp clear perfect - the house The Cullens live in, the cars (one red sport car) they own, the father's some DAMN COOL doctor - Carlisle Cullen (Peter Facinelli). WHY on earth is Peter Facinelli blond in the movie? They fly around swiftly and play baseball magically. Edward flies innocent Bella up to the trees and they enjoyed some magnificent views. Edward the vampire shows himself in the sun!!! Turns out that he shimmers with gold dust-HELLO! turn into a wolf!!

Too perfect until..you realise, Edward couldn't make out with Bella cos he's drawn to her blood. And they stayed up the whole night talking? WOW! The biggest flaw in this perfection.

Anway I wanna watch Twilight TV SERIES so bring it on!!!!!!!!!!! (after Buffy the vampire slayer-this has got to be another good stuff).

By the way, maybe Fink could be a vampire sometimes..for a while..cos dating would be so fun!! And he'll be so rich! I wanna fly....
