I carry your heart with me

I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart)
I am never without it (anywhere I go you go,my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing,my darling)

I fear no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)
I want no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

Here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

I carry your heart(I carry it in my heart)

EE Cummings

Just read that Qing Feng is a huge fan of Faye Wong. I got excited over this fact. I was thinking how he would sound singing faye's songs. And I got my answers the same night! Oh god he's really good at 'Chess". But as for the 1st song, hmmmm...................................................................................................................................

Received the news of CML's resignation. Expected but still seeing a strong woman tearing is an uncomfortable sight. The fakeness of how her resignation is made like a natural moving on thingy. French! Ok, so I'm basied. The next uncomfortable thing is seeing RL being promoted as head of dept. I must be damned. I feel that my ba zhi with hers clashes. She don't like me and I can't stand the sight of her. She was standing so close to me when they made the annoucment and my surrounding pep is congrating her, I cant just stand there and treat her as invisible. Out of politeness (and fakeness) I shook her hand too. You should have seen her (stupid) face. Darn luck!

The xmas mood is pretty dampened with the recent news like hui's grandfather having cancer, xinhui's grandmother in ICU and my mum's having a headache that lasts for afew days liao. Just how is 2007 going to end?

Cut my hair yesterday. The auntie is very 'ruthless'. She ask me 'short hor' then I say yes. She just chomp out a chunk closed to my hairline, shock the hell out of me. I didn't really expect so short. Still not too used to it. My face is so round now! Now wondering if I should dye my hair. I still have one box of dye lying in my room. I hope it is not expired. Bought it in a sale. Overstock and I'm into black hair this year.

Went to meet up Cegelec's collz, catching up at sizzler. Even the prices on sizzler's menu is up. Next up is taxi, which is my worst bday gift!!! I could pratically feel my fortune and luck slipping through my fingers. Did abit of shopping today. Couldn't really find anything much considerable to buy as a proper present. Just lots of lookalike mini toons, more than words kinda useless and meaningless gifts. Even though they always say it's the thought that counts. But why would anyone want to waste so much money buying this kinda of thing. Waste money in my eyes. My coll even bought enough to become a more than words member *faint*. I'm open to another's kind of xmas shopping where qty counts more than quanlity. Weird...maybe I'm the strange one. I thought xmas gift carries quite a weight, something that celebrate the year and bless the next. Sonething that I will spend alot of time and brainwork. I'm exhasted and empty today. Without a clue to get for my close onez. And the crowd just made me more giddy.

Will be testing out prima taste chicken rice tomorrow. There used to be 3 chicken rice stalls in the hawker near my house. Since the market is burnt down few months back, there is suddenly no chicken rice, no soya bean milk, no hokkien mee, no nasi lemak. And with that, I started to miss all those food which I took for granted. I used to think there is not much variety downstairs but now is even worse. And eating chicken rice in orchard is $5.50. 

I will also be trying out oatmeal n raisin cookies. My favorite is from subway. Don't used to love cookies but since subway...my to-die-for-curb- my-sweet-tooth is oatmeal & raisin from subway or famous amos. Will also be baking chocolate fondant for Sisi before she flies. She is complaining that she never try anything that I baked. And I did promise to make her chocolate cake on her bday but didnt really sucessfully made it then.

Next task is to try to knit a scarf which I'm trying to learn from videojug. Very difficult! I'm abit stuck!

Yahoo! Managed to convince Anna to join the dinner just! One down...next!

Heard their new song on mtv channel. It's weird but I kinda like it.

Had a very bad week  Washing machine down - solved by buying a new one which burnt a hole on my pockets, handphone complaining for its retirement - keep hanging on me, shipment cocked up - wrote a complaint letter to my supplier and replied tons of emails to explain the delay shipment, irritating overseas customer kept bugging me with emails for the refund which singpost is dragging, work is a mess, no time and friends just keep cancelling appointments last min. I spent alot of time organising the dates with everyone but the funny part is thank god they are cancelled becos I'm clocking in ot every day. I just cant cope with meetings, trainings, teaching the part-timer whom tried to sign in msn twice on her 1st day, yawned when I'm trying to teach me PO and completing my work everyday which the processes keep changing every single day. With my new sup (the fax bitch is officially my new sup since last week), who is not every understanding, don't understand what I'm doing or how I do them hence keep asking me why I'm taking so long to complete. And thanks to mafan who told her that loft only takes half an hour each day. Hello! Loft takes alot of checking and following up when the codes cock up and it is just part of my job. It is now further divided into divisions catering different procedures to each div, leaving me even more fustrated. Why can't they be more standarized! They are messing up my work. Best part, FB just told me off one morning, asking me why am I taking risks, doing work for others, no wonder so busy when the management thought I shoudn't be taking so long to do my scope. From day 1, I have been doing these. I was taught this way and no one ever complained that I'm doing it wrong. She simply replied me, asking why didnt I question the procedure! F! I was never in logistic, I was never in a big n messy manufacturing company plus I don't see what's wrong even though they are troublesome and yes, there might be some risk that I'm taking but I backed them up with emails. I learnt all these for 4 months and was doing everything fine. Just 1 day, someone steps in, becomes my sup, changed my current flow, add in new stuff, question everything that I'm doing (the same ones that I've been doing all along) and tells me off for doing stuffs. Then on fri before she left before me, tells me don't work too late, pass some of the simpler stuff to the part-timer on monday. I don't doubt her sincerity, but I find it conflicting. If you really care, stop giving me trouble and upwanted stress. I'm trying to deal with ever changing procedures and I'm not rebuking the load given. Just give me back my space! And every stupid manager thanks me to collect mails from the new pigeon hole daily. Can someone just tell her that is a secretary's job!  

Tomorrow will be another week which I can't bear to think. End of the month are always very very busy periods for me. I can forsee all the same delays that happen every month which leaves me rushing like mad before closing. Got my leave approved for coming friday which I plan to go down to Comex. I don't care if they give me the stuffs on time or not. If I cant finish before my leave, I will write an email to everyone saying that I can't finish!  I think I'm becoming the bitch my new sup wants me to be.

Won tics to Home song stories which is tomorrow night. I'm really crossing my fingers for no ot. I worked till 10 plus last friday. Supposedly to meet some friends but luckily it was cancelled. I could just feel the low morale and depression kicking in. It is probably showing on my face when mafan asked if I'm ok and Peisze asking if I'm leaving. I told her the 'good new' which pretty much overturned her thinking. I'm not turning up for most of the 'fun' company events. That must have lead her to think that I'm leaving. Looking forward to watch Home Song Stories which starred Joan Chen and Qi Yi Wu. I like Joan Chen since Saving face which is a very good movie. I hope her new movie is as good! Please no ot for me tomorrow! *crossing fingers*

Went to Ettusais workshop yesterday. Spent $35 for the make-up demostration/talk, high tea & goodie bag with $10 voucher. Let me recall the make-up tips.

1. Start with a clean face. Apply moisturer to keep the face dehydrated through the day. Apply make-up base to separate the make-up from direct contact with the face and cakeness/fine lines appearance when applying powder applications.

2. Conceal flaws and dark circles. 2 types of circles - grey or brown. Use pink to conceal brown circles. Brown is caused by late nights and tiredness and can be lightened by more sleep. Grey is caused by genes and are more difficult to remove. Find a good whitening eye cream and yellow to conceal.

3. To choose the texture of foundation. 
a. Liquid - For dry/oily skin. Followed by loose powder and touched up by pressed powder.
b. Cream foundation - For max coverage.
c. Stick foundation - Best for night/evening make-up.

4 Highlighting to bring out the dimensions of your face. Applying to the eyebrow bone and the golden triangle. 

5. Drawing the eyebrow. Proportion of the brown - inner corners runs parallel to the sides of your nose. Peak of your brown parallel to the edge of your iris or on the outer corners of your eyes. End of the brow should be on the same line for both sides.

6. Choose a eyeshadow base - white, biege, pink, gold/bronze. All colours are suitable for fair skin. For tan skin, try beige or bronze. Apply the 2nd shade inwards. Apply a shimmery/pearly light eyeshadow along your lower eye to open them up. 

7. Curl lashes gradually and apply mascara , pausing at the base lash, zig-zagging upwards. Two coats max otherwise it will bring down the lashes. Coat the lower lashes horizontally.

8. Apply blusher two fingers away from the nose upwards.

9. Apply lipstick. Proportion 2 to 1.5 (lower to upper lips). Shape your cupid bows. Dab gloss in the middle instead of applying to the full gloss to avoid a drooling look.


Can't really say it is a good workshop. The speaker is good. But there is too many people and we don't try out how to use the make-up tips on the spot. There is supposedly free mask trial or express manicure but the queue is too long and there is only 2 counters. The high tea spread isnt very impressive. The whole thing just lasts for about an hour with a lucky draw. Don't think I will join any mypaper workshops anymore. Quite time wasting and expensive.

Missed the Ang Lee movie week at Pitch Black. Pitch Black is a cafe cum movie cum art shophouse. 1st floor is the cafe and the 2nd floor house art exhibitions or public screenings/parties or the normal nightly screening. There is no need to purchase tickets. Just need to buy $5 worth of food from the cafe to enter the mini 20 sofa movie theatre. Oh reserve before you go for the nightly 8pm screening if any interest you.

August Movie schedule is not out yet. It will be a great gathering place for friends.
