22nd December

What a day, paid $3.50 ERP to get a long jam from home to work, CEO from my current freelance company came to check on the region offices. We were all told to reach before 8.45am. Was the 2nd to reach in the creative team, the Executive creative director sure got kind of "LL" when he sees less than half the team in the office, can see the face of the CEO also not in his best tone. Well, another round tomorrow and i can go back to my late for work timing.

Left work on the dot and headed to Plaza Singapura to catch the movie Happy Feet. The starting made the audience burst out laughing, the story line is cool and the effects are simply astonishing. I like the character, Mumble, a strong-willed and brave little fella, but most of all he did the best tap dance.

HAPPY FEET

A comedy adventure set in the land of the Emperor Penguins in the heart of Antarctica. These penguins sing, and each needs their own special song to attract a soul mate. Our hero Mumble (ELIJAH WOOD), son of Elvis (HUGH JACKMAN) and Norma Jean (NICOLE KIDMAN) is the worst singer in the world... but he can tap-dance something fierce!

21 November

Dunno whether its the right thing to do but i seriously need a break. Even though its a nice 1~2 hours of relax ride or just hide in my room blasting my speakers, I just need some time to be alone, clear my busy mind and think what to do next. Been working on this project till late late nights. Zombie in the day n night owl in the night.

A nice cooling ride back home after work and 10 mins of wet riding along SLE. Pouring heavily and god damn, i forgot to bring my raincoat. My mp3 player is at risk! Not wanting to stop by the road shoulder, managed to shift the mp3 player to the back n wack my way thru, the bottom line is "DON'T STOP or else your back will get wet". 10 mins late but managed to reach home in time to catch my favourite show's last episode! I wonder when i can get my shin goon. Shen caijing, JIAYOU!

20November

Its been a hectic day today, rushing the different projects but the lucky thing is that its not the account manager who is chasing after me for jobs and projects, instead i'm th one who is chasing after them to show them what i have done and to get approval before i can proceed with the other project. I hate to do multiple things at a time, one of the account manager asked if the HR had ask for a confirmation to become a full time interactive designer. And chances of getting more workload is higher next year. Is it a good news or bad for me? My reply to him is as long as i dont have to work till late night, i'm fine with it, and i prefer to have more different projects cos i dont really want that ONE portfolio after 1 or 2 years working here. Sounds reasonable huh. Perhaps having more workload means i can ask for more pay? Am I too greedy, YES, i felt so but hey!! who wont want to earn and save for a better future?

knock off at 630pm, rain just stopped and i was happily travelling along CTE and exited at braddell road, this is not my first time travelling from braddell and thus started my "holland" trip... made a big round from braddell > paya lebar > tanjiong katong > jln Eunos > paya lebar road > lor ah soo > yio chu kang link > serangoon garden way and finally my destination. took almost 30mins due to the wet roads and the huge traffic along the way. My GPS brain failed on me, was utterly disappointed with myself, to think that i been wanting to become a cabby, guess i better get my streetdirectory ready in my bikebox for my next "holland" session. Reached at 735pm, was supposed to meet at chomp chomp and all the menus were planned even before lunch hour and yet the place is closed for the day. DAMN!! Took out my handphone and saw 5 miss calls and 2 messages, i'm totally guilty to make my buddy wait for me without even sending an sms to say that i've hollanded and will reach a bit later. Had our dinner and done up our card and the wishes bottle, we proceed to Rebby's place, poor birthday girl grounded for a week. speedy recovery girl!!! All was surprised to see the pool table in the living and we played a few rounds after the birthday girl opened her presents. Home sweet home....

Plans for 2007

Still raining and stuck at home...
better make some plans rather than wasting and "nuaing" my precious weekend away.

Holiday, Finally decided to bring my parents for a holiday. Taiwan will be the first destination. Very excited now though the trip in in March 2007. Will be celebrating my parents 29th wedding anniversary there. Hope they will enjoy it.

Yoga lessons, been busy in 2006 and neglecting this precious art. really need to go into it. I seriously need some motivation.

Japanese Language lesson / Korea Language lesson, its been a few years since i last utilise my language cells... really need to pull my socks and start some konichiwa and anahaseiyo.

Plans ahead, any plans that can help my money grow money. Might take up programming course or take up some non-related subject to upgrade myself with a different set of skills.

Biking trips, much lesser of these but still looking forward to that one trip to thailand's songkran festival... I'm gonna missed the nice scenaries.

Dad planning to sell away the 1991 nissan march. If budget allows, might be sharing a new weekend car and start bringing my parents to short trips. Not missing too much of the scenaries thou... I WANT A hybrid car!!! =P

will be a self-improving year... hope there will be fruits of labour where i can relax and be clear of what i can do in 2008.

Updates Nov!!!

18th + 19th Nov
Still working n hey!!! css is fun!! but not as friendly as what i expected... used to be a "change 1 file n woala!! its up!! now its changing all components before i can see the actual product" good thing is... no matter how many pages u have, only need to update that one set of component and it sure saves lotsa time n effort... but its on when u master joomla and the art of css.

too lazy n tired to work part time... imagine 3~5 hrs sleep a day... who can tahan this mental torture for weeks... my "engine oil" is running low... i need a break but not now... AHHHH!!! dateline is today and thanks to the on n off rain.. i'm still home. I'm glad actually... the more reason i can wack like nobody business in the neighbourhood... *spank razzy for these thoughts* 55units in 4hours.. i doubt i can make it by today... should i?? oh man!!! decisions decisions decisions...

Plans
where to find money? work of cos... but there's an easier way to earn without even slave n slog like what i'm doing now... it'll take a lot more efforts and time in the beginning and your future will be nicely layed for you and you can do whatever you want to do without making any sacrifices. This is the life that i'm looking forward to and will make plans for all these after march 2007.

2006
2006 is a nice n happening year for me.. wait.. is it too fast to conclude 2006 now? Well, the next 2 months is pretty much planned and time sure flies fast. It will be work and part time and work again... my old no life working plans that i used to do in my early years.. so next year is play year... You must learn to work hard and play hard. Work hard for 1 year, play hard for the other, thats me. sometimes was quite sad to see my 2006 gone without much accomplishment but it sure is a year where i experiment and really push myself to my limits working hard for what i want and my beliefs... life is tough but no regrets. If you were to ask me whether i want to try it out again, i will say yes! provided my "backside" is well covered. Too many unexpected stuffs came in the way and suffocated me in a few attempts. Learn for past experience, there wont be any in my future attempts. Glad that I have supports from family and friends that i can survive so many ordeals... sounds hard right.. maybe its too exaggerating to say that word. I might look as if nothing big happened but its just a mask to hide my troubles. That is what razzy is. No one has ever seen the broken down razzy except my girlgirl and the soft toys... they are the ones who really understand me or rather they are the other side of me to know and understand and to comfort me. Dun say you understand me cos you havent see the real me. sometimes i dun really understand myself. the hidden razzy... *wrrooooaarrrr*


Future Updates

will be figuring out how about using wordpress after mastering joomla.. sounds interested web application... time to upgrade my old rusty brain and upgrade my skills... i'm too out of the IT industry although i'm still in the IT line... sounds complicated huh... i'm just too tired to talk sense now.. need tons of sleep to revitalize myself.... ~oooommmmmm.....

Blogging
Its good to know and reflect myself as if i'm looking at myself in the mirror when i'm blogging... some minor thoughts that i dun really took note then came into my attention, while i'm typing them out word by word. What were my initial plans and decisions when i'm thinking about what i want and hey! its totally a 180 degree difference when i reflect and taking things into considerations. Initial thought is a WANT and the selfish me. i want this i want that... but do i need it? any problems if i have it? anything that i will need to face and sacrifice if i were to commit to this impulse decision? Still trying to understand myself through blogging... who knows this blog might become the second razzy and you'll never want to jio razzy out to kopi cos u will know her better through blogging.. wahaha!! lame me.
