Hope for the better

Recently, everything seem not right. I have problem at work. I am trying hard to improve my performance, coping with stress of meeting deadlines and figuring how to solve those work related issues. I feel rather demoralised actually. I did put in effort but the result is not fruitful. Quite worried and stressed about it. But I guess I have no choice but to buck up and work harder. Unless I have other options....

Another problem is my rashes. Is it on and off. Today I am on MC again due to the rashes. I went to see my family clinic doctor. He could not find the root cause of my problem. He refered me to the national skin center. He booked an appointment for me next Monday at 6 pm. That's the earliest slot that is available. I find the timing quite rushing as my offical knock off time is 5.30 pm.

Haiz. I guess there are ups and downs in ones life. Currently, I am properly at the bottom of the hill.

Just now, I was watching a channel 8 drama and I was quite inspired by what the character said in the show. She said that she likes jogging but everytime when she jogs she wants to give up because it is very tiring but its the goal of wanting to reach the destination that keeps her going. I should learn from her. Don't give up so easily and ultimately, I believe I will reach my desired destination.

I hope that everything will eventually work out fine. Pray hard for a better tomorrow.

A busy Saturday

Yesterday was a really busy day for me. I went to CPF Board at Jurong East with my mum to settle some admin stuff. Thereafter, I had to rush to Fangqi's house warming at Jurong West St 64 at 1 pm. After the house warming, I have to attend my little nephew, Joshua's 1 year old birthday at the community centre near his house at Jurong West too.

Fangqi's House Warming

I really envy Fangqi and Jiamin for having their own house. It is so nice to decorate their own house. I also want to have one myself but it is too expensive.

This is the gift that we gave Fangqi for her house warming. It works like a gift voucher except that it is in a visa card form.

I love this big flat screen TV.

The Last Supper puzzle piece

I like this Fish tank. It gives me a very soothing feeling when I look at the fishes swimming inside. It is like a picece of art hanging on the wall.

My blog is alive again!

Today I am on MC as I am down with rashes. This morning I woke up and felt extremely itchy all over my body. I found big red patches all over my body and I freaked out.

Actually, I have this rash since Monday. I went to see a doctor at the Arcade. After taking the medicine given by the doctor, I was better yesterday but today my condition turns bad. I went to see my Family clinic doctor. He gave me a lot of medicine to take. After I have taken 8 pills of medication for rashes and applied medicated cream on the affect area, my itchiness and red patches subsided. The doctor could not tell me the exact root cause of my rashes but I suspect is due to the sashimi I took yesterday with dear during lunch. I tend to have allergy when the seafood I consume is not fresh.

I feel that recently my health condition is not that good. Last week, I was on MC due to fever, flu and sore throat. And this week, I am down with rashes. Haiz... I realised that I have been falling sick more often ever since I started working. Maybe is because there is no fresh air ventilation in the office so all the germs are circulating in the office.

Btw, tomorrow marks my 7th months with PwC. Time really flies.... I am getting busier with meeting deadlines due to the peak periods. Tomorrow I will have to get more work done!!!

Anyway, here are some recent events that took place in my life:

Driving License

I passed my driving first attempt on 24 June 2008. Hurray! But I have no car to drive. Sob!

Caili is back

My sister is back from USA. I am really happy to have her back. She bought me a Nike sport tank top and a body mist from Victoria Secret. I love it!! She also bought some snacks like Carmel popcorns and chocolate. Simply irresistible!

Today is also her result release day. I accompanied her to check her results online. To her surprise, she did very well. She scored 5 As and 2 Bs with a GPA of 3.71/4.0 for her first semester. Congratulation gal!

SMU Commencement 2008

I attended my graduation ceremony in July at Suntec Convention Centre. Finally, I have graduated with a Honours in Business Management.
