if i fall asleep at the morning briefing or fall asleep at dinner or can't make it for our weekly date with the mat rockers 2moro i'm so gonna kill u AT...
in our extremely long phone conversation we had that stretched from the time i was still at office to my bus ride home and den back at home, the topic of psychiatric couch syndrome was brought up a couple of times...
AT mentioned that it's really painful to go out with someone that you can't click with and have nothing to talk about...u'll end up with a sore throat and having to check if the other person is still awake and alive periodically.
tink that has never been a problem for me... i have this tendency to go on n on n on about myself all the time, pouring out my life story and giving a detailed account of my daily life as if i'm on a psychiatrist couch, esp so with ppl i'm close to...mite b a side effect from work... i listen to ppl from mon-fri so come weekends it's my turn to ramble...my blog is definitely another avenue for my verbal diarrhea...
having said tt, i guess tt's prob my natural rxn to any awkward silence...that's something i'm definitely not used to and will find things to say to fill up any voids...prob another occupational habit/hazzard picked up from work aside from my lack of patience...not too comfortable if i'm unable to keep the conversation going when i'm interviewing someone... but it's also bcuz of this tt my interviews go on forever. i usually do end up enjoying toking to the other person... not sure if the feeling is mutual... at least i hope so...i need to exercise more self control whether with frens or with interviewees....
rite it's 230am...time for me to zip n go to bed....

...
horrid horrid day....i wanna go home...
- got stuck in traffic for over an hour in the morning. Fortunately i was in time for Tharman's speech
- recorder died on me in the middle of Tharman's speech
- having to sit through a very boring full day academic conference with painful accents...i'm seriously reconsidering my intention of doing my phd...(academics should really think about improving their presentation skills other than getting their researches done or they'll never get the msg across n will put the person on the receiving end in extreme torture...)
- needed to do my first ever correction in my career...hopefully the last...i've checked it again n again b4 submitting the article last friday....don't know why i still managed to make so many mistakes in such a simple article....arghhhh...(although the work at my current desk is much much lighter than before but i'm losing more sleep...been having insomnia cuz i'm constantly afraid of writing something wrong... think the more I worry, the more likely I'll make a mistake....will taking it ez help? i have no confidence...)
A couple of ppl said this to me in the past year: i'm a mistake.
perhaps they are right.

Taiwan photos
Me & my wrist tattoo!

Shopping is good for you - it's official!
Great news from one of my fav sites catwalkqueen :
It's a question that has troubled the shopper since the dawn of shops - am I buying this fabulous new pair of shoes because I need them, or because I've had a lousy day and they'll cheer me up?
Well, according to a new survey into UK's shopping habits by the Retail Trust (the charity for people in the retail industry) a staggering 40% of 18-24 year olds spank their plastic for the sole purpose of alleviating stress. Other age groups aren't far behind with 25 % of people making unnecessary purchases to feel better, and surprisingly it's the worrying Welsh folk who are more likely to turn to the comforting arms of fashion than Londoners. Just don't get stressed over what to buy or you'll be there forever!
I should stay away from shopping for awhile n try other stuff...taiwan was extremely fun cuz i stayed away from shopping... should do more test drives during the weekends, look for less ventured areas in singapore or bring back my uk habit... staying home to drink and paint/ play the piano / read my stuff or watch dvds...

天堂的杂货店
昨天我妈的传道与他们分享了一篇很有意思的文章，在这里转贴。即使不是信徒也能共勉之。
天堂的杂货店
我沿着人生的公路走着。
一天我看到一块写着「天堂杂货店」的招牌。
当我靠得更近一些，店门大开，然后，我发现自己正站在店里。
我看到一群天使，店里随处都有他们的身影，一位交给我一个篮子，便说，“孩子，小心采购。”
每一个人所需要的东西，这间杂货店里都有，如果你没有办法带走全部的东西，可以改天再回来买更多。
首先，我先取了些“忍耐”，“仁爱”也在同一排货架上，更远处放的是“体谅”，无论你往何处去，你都会需要它。
之后，我又拿了一两盒“智慧”和一两袋“信心”，当然我还需要一些“善良”，我也没忘记“圣灵”，他到处都在。
为了跑这生命的竞赛，我拿了些“力量”和“勇气”。
我的篮子快满了，可我想起还需要“恩典”，我又选了“救恩”，因为那是免费的，我心想多拿一点足够你和我用。
然后，走向柜台准备付钱，心想我拿到了遵行主的旨意所需要的一切货物。
在另一个货架上，我看见“祷告”，所以就拿了点儿，因为我知道一走到外面就会碰到“罪恶”。
“平安”和“喜乐”供货充足，摆在架子最后面，“诗歌”和“赞美”就在旁边，所以我也顺手拿了些。
然后，我就对天使说：“我要付多少？”
他笑著说：“只要你无论去哪里都带著就行了。”
我又问：“说实话，我欠你多少？”
他说：“孩子，耶稣在很久以前就为你付了账。”

Daihatsu Materia
In the midst of struggling with my Car Watch for this Sat, I suddenly realised that I've forgotten to post my last motoring review here.
Introducing the new Daihatsu Materia!!!!
http://www.mypaper.sg/myvodcast/20070511car_a/20070511car_main.html
This car had me at hello... it's super unique looking & drives pretty well too, love the huge backseat space & the super beng interior blue neon lights. Just that it's a little pricey and insurance for it will set me back $2800 a year... ouch...
Think i'll probably have to stick to cabs for a considerable while judging by the way COE is heading north....
in the meantime, i better concentrate on my review since i didn't manage to win the $6.2m toto (first time i bought toto on my own! but of cuz全军覆没...)

mortician-to-be
I think i really can consider becoming a mortician if I ever get sick of journalism...
Usually if I don't have to go out on assignments I don't bother with make up, esp on gym days like today... a colleague couldn't recognise me until I came up close and she said i looked plain. Guess i must have done a good job with my paintworks when I do it.
Don't get me wrong, I wasn't offended at all... but it set me off thinking why many women can't leave without makeup...probably cuz it works like a mask, shielding away all imperfections and to some extent hide emotions (puffy swollen eyes)...
Coinicidentally, one of my fav blogs, All Men Are Liars, touched on this topic as well...pretty gd read, check it out:
http://blogs.smh.com.au/lifestyle/allmenareliars/archives/2007/05/makeup_and_the_veil_same_diffe.html
Disclaimer: going by the title of the blog, i must set the record straight tt i'm no feminist and the writer is actually a guy...
excerpt:
"Women have a fascinating relationship with makeup, with many viewing it as a godsend, others an imposition and some, an unhealthy obsession.
We've all heard stories about (or dated) the insecure woman who couldn't go down the shops without first applying her lipstick and foundation, but what does it say about the world we live in that even female teens with flawless skin feel they're not complete without their Bonne Bell?
Keep in mind, up until last century makeup was known as "paint" and associated with either prostitution or the theatre. Respectable women did not wear it.
"Reddened cheeks and darkened eyelids were signs of female vice, and the 'painted woman' provoked disgust and censure from the virtuous," says historian Kathy Peiss.
In 1964, sexologists Harry Benjamin and R.E.L. Masters claimed that lipstick wearing had its origins with prostitutes in the Middle East as it was "supposed to make the mouth resemble the vulva and it was first worn by those females who specialised in oral stimulation of the penis."
There seems little doubt that women, at least in part, wear makeup to increase their sexual desirability to men and also to avoid the aspersions of "leso" and "old maid" associated with not wearing it....."
The comments are pretty interesting as well...totally agree with the first one, "I don't really care what anyone else thinks. It is my shield against the world."

BBC's Alan Johnston
Haven't been religiously visiting the BBC website as much as I used to while I was in London. Happened to come across this blog by BBC World News editor Jon Williams, urging people to include this Alan Johnston's button to their blog as a sign of support as well as to get people to sign a petition for his release.
In case you have no clue who Alan Johnston is, here's an excerpt from BBC's website:
"BBC correspondent Alan Johnston disappeared on his way home from his Gaza City office on 12 March. He is feared kidnapped in the lawless territory, where he is thought to have been the only international correspondent still working. Intensive efforts have been made to secure his release."
I had the privilege to watch some of his reports on BBC 1. He's a courageous man and my thoughts are with him and his family, and also with other journalists and media practioners who risk their lives everyday to bring the truth to the world.
In comparison, some might say we are very fortunate being journalists in Singapore. I beg to differ.
We are the unfortunate ones. Sheltered from the hardship and harsh realities, don't think many of us will survive, let even go voluntarily if we were put on the line out there in the field.

Ravel to close :(
B4 i get the chance to head back to London to shop the city down, one of my fav shoe shops Ravel will be drawing its shutters for ever...
Read the news this morning on one of my fav websites Shoewawa:
"If you're fan of high street shoe store Ravel, you better gather up your money, bank cards, or anything else you think you can trade for shoes, as they are soon to disappear from the high street after 30 years of trading.
Clarks, the company who own Ravel, have blamed increased competition within the fashion footwear sector for the closures. However, if you are a fan of comfy shoe maestros Clarks, you will be glad to know that many of the Ravel stores will become Clarks stores. In the meantime, Ravel will continue to trade as it clears its stock (ding ding bargains!)."
Even though I've been back for a year and a half, I've hardly bought shoes in Singapore. Call me atas, but I can't find many to my liking...same for bags...Ravel has really quirky shoes in loud colours but a tad pricey though...
check this out b4 it's gone forever: http://www.ravel.co.uk
RIP Ravel...
Saw the following shoe on Shoewawa as well and it was love at first sight (somehow I'm instantly attracted to silver shoes, and anything with ribbons n angel wings or butterfly motifs)...sucks that it's 70 quid though... miss ASOS.com (i'm sure u do too Rach)
To buy or not to buy...tough call...bleargh...

make up
having gone sans make-up for the last week or so, I find myself looking like a lifeless ghost, didn't help that I was down with bronchitis.
with make-up on today even though my hands r still shaking from the medication and my chest feels like it's on a noose, I feel better when I look at myself in the mirror. At least I don't look like as if I have a foot in the grave.
“女人，三分靠姿色，七分靠打扮”，这句话一点也不假。
since i have no natural beauty to boast of, will try to make it a point to put on some make up everyday.
