It was 5.30pm and I was at home. This is a rare situation because the normal time I reach home everyday is 630-645pm. It all depends on the work and the waiting time for 60 to arrive.

Today was different as I had my course earlier. Lecture on Real Property which I expect to be tough end up to be quite manageable since it was taught very briefly. I expected more details by too bad the lecturer did not provide any of it. And the test..Oh my..I never come across any simpler formated test in my entire life. I thought the test on Civil Litigation was simple. This is even simpler than simple. 4 MCQ and some fill in the blanks questions with helping words! And the funniest part is it is an Open-Book Test! I almost burst out laughing. Of course the test did not take up 45mins. DUH! So we ended earlier than plan.

So..That's explain how I ended up being too free to blog today. It is definitely been awhile since I can properly blog. Even today I decided to type out a simple entry to kill time.

A few major events I am looking forward to are as follows:

• Parents' Anniversary (1st April) Yes! It's April Fools' Day. Isnt it cute? Haha
• 26th March 2007
• 6th April 2007 (Good Friday=Holiday) Hurray!
• 29th March 2007 (Mommy's Birthday) I am still thinking of what to buy for her. Thought of double celebration with the Anniversary but not very sure the final decision.

So that's it for the event. Hoping for a nice celebration with my family and relatives. Plus yummylicious food! *evil grins*

With reference to my entry dated 27th February 2007, I would like to make several amendments to the list of activities I came up with.

Since it is approaching April, it means I have 3 more months to fulfill several desires that have been set on the pending mode for quite some time.

I have set a new list with some stuffs omitted since it have been accomplish/fulfill.

So here a new list for my reference just to set as a reminder to self not to go astray.

1. DigiCam (this will definitely be achieved before July, still hunting for the perfect cam for myself)
2. Dine at AlaTurka (Arab Street)
3. New clothes..For outings (Realise that I have plenty of office wear, so shall go hunt for more casual attire then)
4. Weighing machine! (Need to keep track of my weight)
5. Final pair of heels
6. Zoo trip

That's for the amended list.

The reason for me to update today not to provide any form of essay-like entry since I am so lazy to type so much. I am only doing this for the sake of killing time and waiting to indulge myself to some Indian food later. I am very please with that idea. It's been awhile since I have any form of family gathering. I hope this work well.

It's unbelievable how someone can walk away from his/her responsibilities without any second thoughts about the consequences of their actions. It is so unprofessional. It reflects on the level of maturity they possess. Dumb!

--------------------------------------------------------------

So many events passed by without you even realising it. By the time you try to catch up with it, you have no stamina left. It leaves you panting. Inhale, exhale and think of the reasons you even bother to appear in the middle only to find yourself not needed. Start to think why you even care to appear after so long. Why the thought of getting back into action ever cross your mind when you know things are not the way it used to be. It's a cultureshock. So much have change. Within a short period. Now you feel you dont belong there. Never will.

---------------------------------------------------------------

How I wish life is never this fast-pace. I wish that there isnt the need to rush get from one place to another. Even shopping seems so rush! I hate that feeling. I begin to fall in love with nature six months ago or so since I realise it help me to de-stress. It calms me down. Very therapeutic. *meditate*

I dont think there's much to share anymore. Let's continue this some other times. Let's make the next entry a reflective one? A blog-worthy entry? Ya I hope I can bring myself to squeeze that brain juice for good ideas. Till then.

Regards,
Halimah.

I have been postponing the updates for two weeks now. It is not that I dont want to update but I hardly can find time to drag myself in front of the PC and type a decent entry nowadays. It is super madness the past few weeks.And I envy those who are having their 1 week school holidays now. Ya I know it is just a short holiday but if you ask me I would be very contented to have that 1 week holiday. Beggars cant be too choosy. They cant afford to.

Now that March has arrive, there are plenty to be done. The need to clean up my room have been long postponed due to limited time available to do the said. Then it come to outings. Weekends are always not enough. 2 days wont be enough especially when you want to meet too many people at the same time. When you want to catch up with numerous people.

All that aside, am doing exceptionally better at work. There are definitely more to learn but I assume I have gain sufficient to carry out daily tasks assigned.

Guess at work I am not only doing paperworks but also acting as Nutritionist. Haha! Aint that bad afterall. At least I still able to put my diploma to good use. It isnt a waste.

I am dying for 26th March to arrive. If you know what I mean. *grins*

I am having major headache now due to excessive exposure to the glaring computer screen. That is also another reason why it's been awhile since I updated my dearest blog.

I have too much to tell till I have lost my train of thoughts and now am left with nothing to share. Great! This is what severe headache do to you at times like this.

I think now you people should get my point. To those extremely slow ones I shall not beat around the bush and get straight to the point.Time for me to make a move. Will try to cook up one excellent entry soonest.

Thank you for your kind attention.

Yours faithfully
Halimah

Random activities to be done

I want to type out some things I need to do before JULY arrives. You know what it spells for? GST.

1. Visit a few eating venues that will satisfy my eating desire (Secret Recipe, Pizza Hut, Fish & Co. and probably Arab Street)
2. Shop for J.Lo's perfume. (I forget the name but I know the bottle is beautiful and smell so sexy)
3. Stock up on my office wear+ casual attire.
4. At least 2 more pair of shoes
5. 1 big/medium bag
6. DigiCam (I guess this should move up the list and receive higher priority than the rest)
7. Please please..Can I go to the Zoo before July? Pretty please..

I think it is enough up till July. I really need to accomplish all these. I hope I can. Pocket, please allow me to. Hehe!

I am beginning to get very irritated with this advance blog system. The more advance it is the more haywire things appear. Simplicity is bliss i tell you guys. Too much complication leads to loads of irritation of the mind and soul. Haha! What the hell..Even my words are getting all mess up now.

Before I start at anything, I very much hope you faithful readers out there are able to read this current entry of mine because apparently some of you guys out there cant even read my current entry despite me updating it more frequently. Stupid blogger. I have never experience technical difficulties with it but now..Too many problems too little time to solve it. It's a chore i tell you.

Let me put up a Public Announcement here..
ATTENTION DEAR SHOPPERS who apparently love shopping at GIANT HYPERMARKET @ BEDOK. Kindly note that GIANT is closing down as at 1st March 2007. It is moving to Tampines (i think). Any last minute shopping to be done at the mentioned place, please do so before the mentioned date. Thank You.
I'm totally going to miss GIANT. It practically house all the necessities. I am so going to miss the chicken!! I shall go and buy it tomorrow! The last day!
By the way, Sing Shiong is taking over GIANT. Haha!


10+4=Fourteen :)

I hate to blog nowadays since there is almost nothing to blog about. My life have been going in the same cycle day in day out. No variation. I am getting bored of the mundane lifestyle I am leading but I am in no position to vary it either. In fact nothing much can be done. Work takes up majority of the time and week. 9am-6pm. 8 freaking hours of my life gone just like that! If you multiply by 5 meaning 40 hours per week spent slogging in the office. How nice! Then that leave me with the rest of the hours to do anything I like. If I deduct 7-8 hours of sleep daily I need. I barely have much time for leisure. I can only find leisure on every Saturday which is definitely not enough. I have to choose who to spend it with, what to do and I dont have 24 hours on Saturday to do alot either. Then come Sunday..The time I need to recharge for Monday. No wonder it is known as Monday Blues. You totally have to drag yourself out of the weekend mode back to reality. Haiz. Utterly depressing.

On the brighter note, March is going to bring me a slight variation though to my lifestyle. Meeting new people from two different courses. Hopefully that is something worth while. And great! Just by typing this entry it ate up 1/2 hour of my free time. Bloody hell I am turning psycho here. I am turning calculatively psycho. I need professional help fast?! Hmm..

Please ignore my craps. It's not worth reading seriously. This is just one of my moments I choose to do brainless stuff so pardon me for typing this senseless entry. It just keep me being me for a few hours at least. Errr..I am not making any sense at all! Shucks. Ok let's just call it a day now.

It is Sunday once more. This previous week past at an extremely high speed. It is a good and a bad thing. Good to be able to reach weekend quickly and enjoy it sooner while bad because ALOT of work in the office was put on hold. Need to rush numerous stuffs and the coming week will start my slogging. Course start on the 1st and had the chance to check out the venue. Fortunately, the 1st module is not that intensive. At least I can take slightly more time to adapt to studying once more. I hope March will be a more promising month just like how i wish February was and turned out to be a little better than okay.

The long holiday as I was saying earlier I need to finish reading 3 books within 3 days but unfortunately thanks to my slow reading ability, I managed to finish only one book. Well at least better than none. Haha. I am working on the second book now. Need to finish it before the due date.

On a different note, I am really looking forward to meeting you guys for dinner or whatever it is to be at Ramen Ten. It's been a while and I hope the plan will work.

Nad, we gonna meet up on Friday. Whee! It's been such a long time. Haha. Have alot to catch up with.

Seriously, I am definitely bored now. People are sleeping when it is only 2pm! Not much activity around to keep me entertain except for reading book which I am going to do pretty soon (hopefully if not too lazy).

I've been too tired the past few days to blog. Cant believe that there's alot to do despite the Chinese New Year. And I cant believe Nad..You actually went to Sentosa on Saturday too! Haha! But too bad I didnt bump into you that day.

So I'm quite lazy to go into details what I did for this long holiday. Basically I spent time with people. In general. I think not a single day spent alone. Saturday went to Sentosa for the fun of it. Haha! A few changes here and there other than that nothing much besides the nice sea view. I cant believe I actually went on an eating spree. Thanks to someone. Purposely dragged me along as an eating partner. Thanks alot. Now i cant seem to stop munching! Argh! On Sunday had an early start. Jogged with my cousin but my stamina was very bad so I jogged only for 1.5km!! Haha! At least it's quite an achievement for me since I did a consistent pace and didnt even stop. Quite a good thing for me. Haha! Perhaps I will make it a habit to jog at least once a week. Maybe shall jog again tomorrow or what. Healthy lifestyle! Haha. On Monday, I spent it around Singapore River and Esplanade. Hey they are in process of building the stage for National Day. The spectators' seat is also half-way done. Yesterday had nothing much to do. Did alot of sitting around. Walking aimlessly. And reminiscing the past. Quite a weird and fun day. Felt like the Poly days. Hehe.

The plan for today was supposedly to go to East Coast for a swim in the sea. But I'm too shag. So I cancelled it. So now slacking at home and i need to finish 3 books that I borrowed from a friend. I only start on a few pages last night. Hahaha! I still have 3 more days to complete everything. Hope will be able to do it. Or at least the 2 books within 3 days.

It is weird..the more clothes I buy the more i feel there's not enough clothes for me to wear. Wahaha! I desperately need more clothes especially for special occasions 'cos there's nothing special in my wardrobe for the time being. I think I need more dressy clothes. And a fine pair of shoes. I need to add more earrings into my collection as well. Not to forget to buy netting to hang those earrings.

Ah..I dont have much to type. I want to go and slack now. If i'm in the mood to type a more essay-like entry will do so in the near future.

Good Afternoon Singapore! I am so happy!! God knows for what reason. My heart cant stop smiling. This is just a perfect Saturday afterall. I woke up today with a new realisation. It took me so long to even realise it but finally I did. I finally discover how I miss those days I used to have when I was back in Secondary school and the first 2 years of my poly life. That is being that girl who spent her weekends curled up in the comfort of her bed reading up the most romantic love stories and soon proceeded to watch her favourite Bollywood movie.

It is fun lazing around. While on a typical weekdays will reach home to have that cosy moments in front of the tv.

That was how I used to spend my time. That was my life. My life evolving around the greatest invention of all time, Television.

And not to forget the books. I am the all-time bookworm. Cant help it. Grow up with it.

At last, I know why my life have been so dull and seem so mundane for the past few months back. The ultimate reason is that I wasnt in control of my own life. I was too dependant. I relied too much on others that I forget that I am capable of doing alot on my own. I forget that I used to be that girl who run her own life the way she want and accomplish it just perfectly fine.

Well since now I have get my fingers on the core of the problem and tackle it. I am living a more fulfilling life. Bear in mind that it's not that I wasnt happy for the past few months, I was. My only problem was it never feel so complete afterall. No matter how happy I was, I feel I was capable of doing more. I feel that a part of me was just not there and here I am now after so much worries I finally get to make myself completely happy once over again. It seems so long since I had a blast.

Let me move away from my own life now. Let's just talk about something completely different altogether. Let's have some quick movie review. For this month, I barely have time to watch any movies and come to think of it again there aint much options available in the cinema nowadays. No movie seems to appeal to me as yet. Therefore I only managed to watch one movie which left me appalled at the end of it. Not for the good reasons that's very obvious. What a way to begin my 21st. By watching an R21 movie! Well people dont get the wrong idea please. It's not that I was aware that the particular movie I was about to watch is rated R21. I just got interested to watch it due to its deceiving synopsis and catchy title! I was cheated! I hate being cheated. They should not have written the synopsis in that way. Practically misleading. Hmph! Ok before you all start guessing what movie I am talking about let me just spill it out for you. I was talking about "Perfume: the murderer story".

You all must be aware by now that I adores thrillers and mysteries and you cant blame me for being interested in this movie.
Ok initially, it wasnt that bad. The beginning was quite promising actually. Hmm..again being deceived. First impression only lasts for a short period of time.
It started disgustingly interesting but as the movie went on. It deteriorated due to its longwindedness and illogical ending. I felt completely dumb watching it and come to think I ended up reaching home past midnight because I wanted to watch that movie so much. It felt terrible! To top it all, felt quite guilty dragging Shikin along to watch it. And she's not 21 yet!

To think i want to do up a short movie review, this that I'm typing doesnt even come close to being a review! Sheesh.

By the way, just itching to say this..I'm currently head-over-heels with the fragrance by J-Lo. In fact the bottle is so gorgeous. And and..I am very into the book I borrowed the past 2 weeks. "Swapping Lives" reminded me of a movie somewhere last year. I dont know whether it is exactly the same but I remember watching the trailer.

Errm..Someone commented on my language proficiency yesterday. Haha. This I mean it in a good way. I am speaking and writing in a more improved English. That I must say I am so glad to hear. Working in a Law firm definitely polishes up one language and deteriorates the other. Haha! You have to listen to how I speak my mother tongue nowadays. Totally embarrasing! What happen to it after 7 months?

Speaking about work. Not much updates about it afterall. Only that yesterday I finally got to be myself for a day. It is so relax! I love yesterday. And there one of my colleagues commented ,"Wah Halimah..You are funny today."
Haha! What an insult I tell you. Am I that boring at work? Haha! The answer is YES! I am being a boring girl at work not to forget acting demure and soft-spoken! Those who knows me and are reading this must be rolling their eyes by the word "demure" and "soft-spoken". That two vocabs totally not suit to describe me! I am neither demure nor soft-spoken.
I tell you, my colleagues will definitely be shocked if they ever saw me out with my friends laughing like some crazy hyenas and spitting out sarcastic remarks and crapping a whole lot. They might not even recognise that it is one of their colleagues they are seeing. Haha. Hmm..I am displaying split-personality. Only that the real me is what you guys have witness time and again. Only that you all wont have the chance to see me in the office only that if you intend to engage a lawyer or seek legal advises pertaining to Civil, Family or (god forbids) Criminal matters.

I must have bore you guys with my essay-like entry and oh well in the first place you are welcome to stop reading if you aint interested. But it proves that you are interested in reading my nonsense since you are still faithfully with me till this point. I must say I'm truly flattered.

Here i would like to dedicate this small portion of the entry to those NS men who have just gotten back from their trip to hell. Welcome back to Singapore! Singapore is proud of you!*throws confetti*

Alright, alright..I declare the end of this entry now! Have a good weekends!

My head is spinning and I feel like throwing up.
Everything seems to become topsy-turvy.
Sometimes I hate to go home right after work and would rather stay in the library drown in my own fantasy world. Reading those uber sweet love stories or the page turning mystery. Or I even will be contented just by flipping through fashion magazines. It seems I can find solace in the Public Library eventhough it isnt so conducive afterall seeing ah-peks snoring at those sofas taking up all the seats. Oh well I've turn immune to all these. If you are living in one country make sure to behave like the citizens. So you wont fall out of place.

Talking about being out of place. This leads me to a more interesting fact of my life. Hmm..It seems as yet things are still not falling into place. It should have been since it's almost 7 months already but oh well things just gets more unfamiliar. It never seems to feel right. I have been trying to make it like my own but till now I never feel that i belong there. Even for a day. But I am beginning to make rapport with my own superior. At least things aint that bad like it used to be. At least they are nice eventhough it might be an act. I really dont give a damn. They can pretend for as long as they want and I shall put on the same mask as usual. I can never really be myself with them. I think I know why. GENERATION GAP. It is an issue. HAHA! No matter what at least I am making the effort to be nice and narrowing the gap between us. Who knows in months to come I will be able to close that gap totally. I really hope so.

As for things not falling into place, I am still searching for a reason to purport the feeling I am experiencing.Maybe this is temporary. But what if it's permanent? How will I go about tackling this problem? Haiz. I hate thinking too much. Maybe this is the reason why I happen to have this topsy-turvy feeling. BUT if i dont think about it, how can things get going? How can I make things better if I dont think about it and try to find a solution for it? Errr.. Okay I am going in circles. I am having issues with myself (I think). I think I need a psychologist. ARgh!! I am going nuts! Help!!

Alright this is getting more freaky than it already is. Before things get out of hand I shall put an end to this entry right away.

Oh well on a brighter note, I am waiting for end of this week. :)

I am in the mood for love. Wohoo! Valentines' day is approaching and it is only better to slightly make some changes to adapt to the mood. So decided to change the skin again. Since yesterday I've been having few connections with love. Like reading "The Big Love" by Sarah Dunn and watch "Down with Love" on Channel 5. It feels great! It really made my day yesterday apart from the perfect meal with family, those wishes and chocolate indulgence.

Wish you are here with me.
5 more days *smiles*

Hey it's me again! New month new look. Reason for the change of blog skin?
Well partly due to my niece comment on my blog and partly to get in touch with my "nerdish" side. Have i succeded? I guess i need not have to try too hard to project that image huh? *roll eyes* Whatever. Hmph!

Updates! updates! Tomorrow I am officially turning 21! And hey..I am officially a young adult and I am capable to build my own sweet home. Sounds like a great deal? Haiyah..Not for me. It feels all the same. My colleagues were asking whether I am throwing any sort of birthday bash this year. Well turning 21 isnt like a big hoohaa for me. It all feels the same. In fact it feels kinda depressing to know you are growing old and you are still not sure what to do with your life. Sad isnt it? Haiz. *shakes off the thought*
I guess I shall not dwell on the matter too much or else tomorrow i wont be enjoying my day. Haha! Oh by the way, my colleagues actually celebrated my birthday in advance just now together with another colleagues whose birthday happens to be today! Double celebration. Great huh? Yes it is indeed a fun celebration.

My countdown is still on. The more I start counting down the more anxious i am about it. I cant wait for that day to finally comes. I am surely going to be one happy lady! Wahaha!

Actually now I have nothing to blog. I just want to provide you readers with a new utterly meaningless entry to accompany this change of blogskin. Testing out the way the entry is going to come out after typing it all out.

Oh it seems that my life is slightly progressing. Going to be tied down for another year. So i have ample time to make my next decision. I am definitely going to fully utilise my youth to the maximum.

Alright wont bore you guys any further. Shall update more soon.

Nowadays, some people are too happy that they start to eat alot. Haha. Haiyah good for them. They are happy while me? Well, actually I'm not sad either. But it's just i am recently losing my appetite to eat. Like no more cravings. No more snacking. Most importantly, i can survive a whole day with just one meal. It is so a bad sign for me. Losing weight maybe healthy but for me? What I want to lose you tell me. I need sufficient fats to keep me warm or I will shiver to death even in an air-conditioned areas. I am trying to stuff myself with food but hey I dont feel like eating.

Hmm..Nevermind this will go away pretty soon I guess. After I get that medication of mine. :)

Tomorrow is February! Hurray! Means..It's 9 more days! Yay!

January definitely pass by like a breeze and now it is ending soon. I cant wait for February to arrive with promising experiences yet to be experienced. I have more than a reason to anticipate the arrival of February. There will be too many things to look forward to eg. Valentines' Day, 9th February '07, Chinese New Year's LONG HOLIDAY and many many more.

It was another yet busy week which left me exhausted for entertainment or at least to engage in long conversation with and I definitely got it today. The initial idea was to watch Cicak-man but it was cancelled. Firstly,there isnt many cinemas around Singapore showing the movie. Secondly, they have odd showtimes. Lastly, due to the two major reasons mentioned I lost interest in watching it today. Haha.

So met up with my poly friend, Nadiah to catch up with things. Decided to head to somewhere East and convenient for both of us since we are the lazy bunch. Simei was the choice. A lil bit off for a Friday night thingy but we had lots of fun. Shocking news. Gossips. I basically couldnt shut up the entire time. From Banquet to Starbucks to the cab. Yak yak yak all the way. I even met unexpected people. I bumped into my one of my coursemates who used to be in my caregroup and found out that she is still with the same guy for almost 2 years plus. Great. Weird combinations produce a more stable relationships I guess.

By the way, the pending intention to pursue the cert will start to take action in March. At least now I am heading somewhere.

*2 weeks to go..

Recap of 3rd week of January

-Ate Nasi Ayam Penyet countless of times the particular week which make me wonder how many kilos I have gain so far.

-The treat from the superior. Chicken Briyani. A very generous quantity with 1/4 of a chicken packed for each person. A packet could have been shared among 2-3 people actually!

-The Departure. Awaiting for the return in 3 weeks.

-Bought the 3rd Handbag for the month. It looks what was said by Shikin like a First Aid box. I like it!

-Better week with the colleagues and work.

-A certificate of Paralegal in the pending stage. Most prob, I will give it a shot.

-My 1st ever weekend spent at home with my parents. It feels nice actually watching old movies together with them.

-Frequent Parkway parade this week for the abovementioned reason; Nasi Ayam Penyet.

Guess that was what I did the entire time I wasnt blogging. Partly also due to my laziness and early nights. I am so drained out for the unknown reason. I had sufficient rest at least. I cant wait for pay day 'cos i am almost broke. Thank goodness i have no plans this weekends and the coming weekdays. So my rountine life is back. Work and then back home for my early nights. Hehe. I even borrowed a few books to chase away the incoming boredom I forsee to be approaching soon. I am also laying out my ideas to revamp my tiny room into a cosy resting place.

It is finally Sunday and tomorrow I am back to work! At least that is one major form of distraction for me. I never really look forward to Monday like i am now.

Ps: Anyone want to accompany me watch Cicak-man? I am quite keen to watch it.

Miss that fragrance
wafting in mid air
that same scent
i longed for each day..

Come to me
closer than ever
and dont walk away
just stay on forever


Now I totally wonder how it will be like when the time comes. How am i suppose to go through it every single day? Shit. This is madness. How can i come this far? How can i be who i am now? This insanity is way beyond my limit. It crosses every possibilities i can ever think of. It comes unexpectedly and now leaving me in verge of tears. It conquers all. How true!

Ps: Return soon. pls.

If only you knew
how it feels deep inside

if only you try looking further
you will find what lies within

if
the two futile letters combined
to produce a disheartening end-product

Gaze into my eyes tonight
'cos it reveals the naked truth
and answers the uncertainties
erase your doubts
of how much faith lies between us

Meet me here
to rekindle back
those memories
long forgotten

please dont walk away
dont turn away from me,
tonight.

This week seems like forever. Neverending. It feels too slow. Please let it run faster so it will soon be Friday and I can take a holiday from those files.
Take a break from that screen.
Take a rest from the continuous slogging.
I think shall go to bed soon since I have nothing to do. Zzzzz...

Bad habits are the easiest to pick up and I have successfully pick up those habits. Thanks to my colleagues and me being the fast-learner.

Guess where am i now?

At Work? Sorry, wrong answer!

I am at home and happily typing away.

On leave? Sorry, try harder next time!

I am on MC. Yes you heard me right. I am on MC.

Sick? Yes you are right!

I am utterly sick in the mind and i am suffering from Morning sickness!

Pregnant? Your head!

I wasnt talking about the normal morning sickness. I was talking about the draggy feeling you experience each time you wake up early in the morning to go to work. That's my definition of morning sickness.

So I guess Shikin you are right. Money can really buy happiness and only that my money will be compensated. Hurray!

Today reveals the shocking truth about myself.

I am not only such a BAD actress. I am also a BAD liar!!
I am so not use to lying that I swear my family doctor can see through my lies. Bloody hell!

I must have been too honest the 20 years of my life! Tsk tsk tsk!

I am so disappointed with myself.

I guess New Year teaches me New Antics. Hehe! Long Live 2007!
More things are open to my discovery! Whee!

I have a few more hours to go before I meet Nad and Shah to check out the Coregroup. I shall go and watch TeeVee. See what repeat telecast of old shows are in store for me. I miss TeeVee.

Anyway, i shall do teenie weenie bit of revision on Family Law. At least wont be lost on Monday. Shit ah! Stacks of file awaiting for my arrival. Haiz..

I hope i am not too late to wish everyone

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
MAY 2007 BRINGS ALONG A BETTER YEAR

It is 2nd January 2007! Can you believe it how fast it goes by? We are here witnessing the new year. Amazing huh? The Countdown. The Enthusiasms. The Sales. All over now. Within a span of 2 days? That's something for sure. Like every new year we all have our new resolution. A fresh new start. Some even with a fresh new look. All brand new. For me this year like any other years will be a fresh new attitude. Well not a total change I have to admit first. Just a slight change in perceptions and how things going to be handled in the future. The old mistakes will be my guide to the new beginning. Being more responsible, practical and sensible if definitely one of my new year's resolution. I guess the rest of it shall be just between me and myself. I shall take my times to accomplish my goals and dreams. Patience is the key. I wish myself all the best and not forgetting you guys too. Hope you guys will be able to stick to your own New Year's Resolution. If you believe, you will.

Let me take you back to my past entry regarding the activities I wanted to do but have yet to find the time to do it. I am glad that I manage to actually complete a few of my "Christmas Wishes" in 2006.

I managed to watch Night at the Museum with dearest Nadira, Dine at Fish & Co. and of course a lil of the Shopping Spree.

So I shall re-list the activities I want to accomplish in '07.

1) Watch Harry Potter & The Order of Phoenix
2) Singapore Zoo
3) Cable Car Ride
4) Singapore Discovery Centre
5) Sentosa (Luge & Musical Fountain)
6) BumBoat Ride
7) Nasi Ayam Penyet adventure
8) Around the world in 80 days. Went to Arab, New York, America, Australia & France. Have yet to cover
Bombay!

I guess this is quite a realistic goal for '07. I know the list is getting shorter but i think it's more achievable. Hah!

The Start of the Year is mild for me. Nothing spectacular whatsoever happen. Only that soon it will be quite bittersweet as the day is approaching. It's difficult not to feel sad. Shall not dwell on it too much for now. We'll see once the time arrive.

The last few days of 2006 was Great! It adds up to the memorable events. I deduced that the unplanned events are the best events!

Today shall be resting day. Resting the mind and body in preparation for the work tomorrow. Back to work. No more enjoyment till weekend arrives.

It is exactly five more days to 2007. So much have happened be it good or bad. Be it either one it only serves as something to learn from. From it you mature and I must say I have mature quite abit looking back at where I started. This is the ending of 2006 and I started it with a big bang. Haha! Not a positive one that is. I recalled having to spend my New Year at home. The reason being I sprained my ankle while playing zero point during Camp Nexus. Stupid.

But this year I am definitely going to spend it in a very special way. There are so many reasons for me to look forward to 2007. I am excited to start afresh with those people who have always mean so much to me. The people who witness my downfall and my success. I wish for a better life ahead. A life which is still unpredictable. A life full of challenges. A life with the growing love and passion. A life that I can call my own.

I will never regret the events that had happened to me in the past because that is when I create my own history. My life history. Like any history textbook you read, definitely there will be stories about the gloomy failure and the victorious sucess of a country. Our life is similar to it. When we are facing our difficult moments, it feels like War. When we are experiencing happiness, it feels like a prosperous occasion. So many comparison can be drawn only with the word Life. There is so much to Life that at times when you heard news of someone committing suicide, you begin to wonder. Is it really nothing in the name of Life that Death is a better option? And we continously wonder. But have yet to find an answer.

I digress.

I was in the middle of sharing the reasons why I cant wait for 2007 to arrive. And I am about to share my new year's resolution if I am capable of producing it at this very limited time span.

First thing first..
The Reasons..

a) Obviously the utmost reason why i cant wait for the year to end and substituting it with the next year is because this year have too much going on. Too much for me to handle. I need to close this old chapter that have gone way too long and start a new fresh chapter.

In random order the lists of events of 2006

- Major Project that brought along a very major headache and burden together with it existence. Surviving in the group was already a big chore by itself and to top it all the topic chosen was too ambitious.

- Completed MP and began with Final Year Exam which was a struggle due to multiple commitments. Too much to cope with.

- Sins.

- Tainted Flower. Beneath the Batik. The first stepping stone. A play that opened various doors of opportunities. Not all were taken wisely. Some were rejected.

- Parlez. Franco-phobe moment.

-Tepak Sireh. Tonnes of adlibs.

- DreamScape 3.0. Who says Dream cannot become a Reality? 'Cos it did in this one. Right Nad? ;)

- Friendship strengthens.

- Enter the biggest commitment of all time. And very glad still in it.

- Words can break or make people. At one point it broke us. Not for long. Friends forever. :)

- The Most memorable Birthday.

- Graduation. Diploma in Food Science and Nutrition. Useless!

- Job-hunting period. The frustration and the disappointment. And not to forget the rejection and the discrimination too!

- Getting in touch with the woman within

- Sacrifices..

- Entered the working industry. Realise it isnt like bed of roses. Realise the ugly side of life.

- Adapting to it and accepting it as it is.

Welcome into the Adult World!!
where entertainment is second to responsiblity
where CPF, DPS,Medishield and NETs are all that matters
where fast food restaurants come second to luxurious dining experience
where personality outshine superficiality
where boys become men
where girls become ladies

Apart from those mentioned reasons. I am also glad that I finally met up with the long lost friends. I really mean for a long time. This year I have met up with my primary school friends. Those friends I used to hang out with and grow up with.
Haier Diana.
Rozeanna.
Faridah.
Rosazlinda.
Munir.
Fahmi.
Anis.
Hidayah.
Muzil.

A small note to those that matters:

Congrats to Nurul'aini for surviving and still tolerating Cik Kham's attitude. And also for making it somewhere in the Media industry. Kudos!

Finally, Marissa you found the one you truly adore. Wish you all the best with him. May it not be those monkey love you had back in secondary school. And congrats for making it permanent in Supreme Court IT Department.

The thorn among the roses. Shahdon. Be strong while serving the NS. And I dont mean Physically like Aaron Aziz which I know you wanna. But be strong Mentally because it is more like a mental torture. I shall wait for me to win another of your infamous "Call from Tekong" competition. Haaha!

I heart IMH tour we had on Sunday. Truly enriching. Truly Asia! Haha. What can i say..You end up in the most unexpected place and doing well there. Have to salute your go with your instinct attitude. Very bold of you. Now you have yet to find your other half but I am still waiting for that very moment to happen. So that i can shut Shah up from pestering a Dinner together with my other half. I dont want to make the same mistake. Haha!

Lots of Love,
Halimah

Like any other bloggers that I have read their blogs talking about New year. I am not excluded.
I am also one of those who is wishing for the New Year to arrive and thus leaving this 2006 at the back of my mind. Like wise the same wish I had back in 2005. Haha! Guess some things never change but I bet this year is way way way better than the previous year.
Hey maybe I shall post up a line graph showing the different peak of my life this year. Cool huh? To better illustrate my point for 2006. Hehe.



Graph 1: Summary of Year 2006

Today was awesome. I never laughed so much for quite sometime and tonight was definitely a night to remember. Night at the museum. OMG! It was freaking funny lah! And I am so in love with those exhibits. Haha! T-rex rules ah (pun intended)! HAHAHAHA! Great show to laugh your stress out and wish it will never NEVER return again. That was what I did. And it works!! Very effective. Like the saying goes " Laughter is the best medicine". I was sick but i receive the cure to it.

Since it is just 2 days before Christmas aka Public HOLIDAY! Wohoo! I will like to wish those Christians and those non-Christian who thinks they are Christian and want to join along in the celebration..

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF YOU!!
SHOP SHOP AND SHOP before the GST increase next year hor!


Opps apology to those colour blinds out there. Too bad you can read my special wish if it is meant to be dedicated to you that is. Oh well anyway i know you cant be bothered about my wish either so no fuss lah. Haha

Returning to the topic of new year. Yes i am getting excited as the DAY is approaching. My countdown starts a week in advance. And guess I have to prepare my New year's resolution very soon. Once I have compile everything I might just be posting it up here soon. Apart from the resolution I have alot of socialising to be done. Haha!
Meeting up with the other 2 friends that have gone through thick and thin with me in the weekend or most likely Monday.
Having Post-Christmas plus catching up session with 2 of my secondary school classmates.
Surprising someone with the guest appearance that is tentative.
So that are some of the plans ahead. End of the year isnt as bad afterall.

And I have yet to do some shopping for myself. I need to do it a.s.a.p before the Christmas is over and the year is ending.

Oh my I have lots to update but just look at the clock now. It is already past my bedtime and amazingly I am not even sleepy. Must be the festive season mood. I shall continue this another day with my very own reflection and review of 2006. Stay tune till day good day. Enjoy the Holiday.

I am in dire need of some fun during the weekdays but i am almost broke. Ya i know what a time to be broke huh? Out of all time it is Christmas Season. It sucks i tell you. Moreover nowadays i just feel quite lonely. Need to be all hype up once again.
This is weird I am surrounded with plenty of human beings and yet i feel lonely inside. Eurgh. I have no idea why. Dont ask because i dont know how to answer it myself.

On a happy note, i think i should list down all the things i have been wanting to do thus far. Ala Christmas wish list.

1) Watch movies: De javu_Cinderella_Harry Potter & The Order of Phoenix_Night at the museum

2) Dine at Fish & Co.

3) Visit the Singapore Zoo

4) Cable Car ride at Harbourfront

5) Simulator ride at Singapore Discovery Centre

6) Ride the Sentosa Luge

7) Bumboat ride along Singapore River

8) Relive the Musical fountain moments

9) Cycling along East Coast Park

10) Try out the Nasi Ayam Penyet at Changi Village

11) Continue with the very own around the world in 80 days trip to Bombay

12) Shopping Spree

13) Catch up on missed movies aka VCD/DVD watching marathon

14) Get enrol into some classes to get away from the routined life

Ah..The list is seriously non-exhaustive. It can go on and on forever. This is how much i have longed to catch up with life. Sigh.

Time and again he try talking sense to me.
But eversince graduation, I cant possibly register any sense.
My life is not making any sense right now. Not anymore for now.
I failed to live whatever expectation I have for myself.
I think I'm such a failure. Loser. Totally.
What have I done with my life?
Which path am I heading?
Which direction is my boat steering to?
God, how can I be so fickle?
Is this what I really want?
Come to think of it again..What exactly I want?
What is my goal in life?
-------

New year is coming soon and it is time to really do up some review about 2006. It is time to set new goals and be specific. It's time for changes. It's time to get serious.

Ps: Thanks Ashikin and Shahdon for the lunch date today. It really help me to get away from my senseless life for that less than 1 hour.

Sinful day it was. Started the day with the first meal of the day and had masala tosai. As the day progressed, went out with Ashikin and Shahdon. An unplanned outing which was supposedly to be a planned one. But due to some misunderstanding and miscommunication it was cancelled the day before. So we headed to Arab Street. Indulged in the fine dining experience at Samar. I loved the ambience. Breath-taking. Exquisite. Love it! We dined the Arab-style. Was a short outing but a nice one. At least now Shahdon will leave for NS with a good note I guess. Haha! At home, had dinner. Which was obviously done not frequently. I was again transported to a different country altogether. Indonesia was the next stop. Had Nasi Ayam penyet. Gosh I'm stuffed with food the entire day. I need to watch what I eat from tomorrow. I dont wish to end up gaining additional kilos in the next coming years. I need to maintain it or lose it.

------

I'm getting bitchier day after day. It comes with age.

--------
Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
-fort minor-

Once upon a December, the three children went out to play. Heading Central where the real entertainment is. It was an exciting and unplanned quest for them. It was even unplanned for one of them since she got for herself an advanced Christmas present. Something she craved for long. Finally she received it. She was beaming with happiness while her other two friends celebrated the happiness with lots of laughter and joy. The craziness was up to its beam and soon it was overflowing. It was rare to experience the feeling especially on a weekday where people supposedly to be resting at home. But not for them. They never rest.

Anyway, the Christmas present she received will be posted soon if time permits.

-----------------------------------------------------

Enough of what happened previously. The more important point that I want to bring across is coming very soon now. Guess what..I actually met SOMEBODY i never plan of meeting. If Ashikin you are reading be prepared to just smile and look to your either side. Haha!
*drum rolls*
It is....
.............................

.....
..
H...


HILYAH!!
Not only Hilyah..
HILYAH AND HER BOYFRIEND...

THIN HILYAH AND HER ANNOYING BOYFRIEND!!!!!

That is so the "Oh My God" moment! And I actually said "Hi" to her and proceeded with asking how's life and where she's studying. I cant even believe myself that I actually tried so hard not to burst out into laughter while walking away from them. What a hilarious encounter i must admit.

It is about time for me to head on to the nearest sofa and turn on the tv set. Switch to Art Central to watch a Documentary. Haha! Yes Shahdon i'm about to follow your footstep. I'm your follower and you are my confucius. Wahaha! Whatever lah eh. Enough of me for now. Will upload pictures and the new Christmas present if time permits.

I will end this with another lyric from Carpenters. I'm so madly in love with them. I cant believe it. Love at the first hearing! And the female singer from Carpenters actually died of Bulimia! I know I'm slow but the cause of death is so...VIRUS. (finally I have a word to describe it with the help of Shah)

*******************
I need to be in Love
*******************
The hardest thing I've ever done is keep believing
There's someone in this crazy world for me
The way that people come and go through temporary lives
My chance could come and I might never know
I used to say "No promises, let's keep it simple"But freedom only helps you say goodbye
It took a while for me to learn that nothing comes for free
The price I paid is high enough for me

I know I need to be in love
I know I've wasted too much time
I know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world

And fool enough to think that's what I'll find

So here I am with pockets full of good intentions
But none of them will comfort me tonight
I'm wide awake at 4 a.m. without a friend in sight
I'm hanging on a hope but I'm all right

Recently, have been listening to songs by Carpenters. I become an instant fan. Even borrowed the CD from my colleague.
2 of my favourite songs are Mr. Postman and This Masquerade.

~This Masquerade~

Are we really happy with
This lonely game we play
Looking for the right words to say
Searching but not finding
Understanding anyway
We're lost in this masquerade
Both afraid to say we're just too far away
From being close together from the start
We tried to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside this lonely game we play
(*) Thoughts of leaving disappear
Each time I see your eyes
And no matter how hard I try
To understand the reason
Why we carry on this way
And we're lost in this masquerade
We tried to talk it over
But the words got in the way
We're lost inside this lonely game we play
Repeat (*)
We're lost in a masquerade

Have you ever loved somebody so much
It makes you cry?
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night?
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right?
Have you ever?
-Brandy-

There is a particular story I have been meaning to share with all the readers out here.
So here how it roughly goes..

One fine day, a guy with unknown identity encounter a garden full of beautiful, blooming roses. Without hesitation, he enter the garden admiring the enchanting view. Soon a particular rose caught his attention and he decided to pluck it and bring it along with him. Off he goes to walk further. Throughout his journey, he did encounter more beautiful roses. Some even more beautiful than what he have in his hand. By that time, the rose in his hand is slowly withering away but nonetheless he still hold on to it. Eventhough he have the option to throw it away and pluck a new rose, he still hold on to it. In fact, he hold on to the same exact rose till his last breath.

Life is a matter of choice. Where you are, who you are with and what you want to be. It all depends on the choices you make in life. If you end up being a criminal, blame it on your choice not circumstances. If you end being a lawyer, thanks to your wise choice. :)

According to the non-Islamic calendar, yesterday marked the end of Ramadhan. No more Raya outings that is. That just reminds me that have yet to post all those pictures but come to think of it again, i dont think i will post any soon cos the collection is not completed.

It feels really weird and relaxing at the same time to be at home on a Saturday. Weird because you have nothing better to do so you decide to spring clean the house and relaxing because you sleep almost 12 hours without worries. Isnt life awesome on a Saturday?

Now i have a very strong feeling that i might be bumming at home tomorrow and the following day as well. You might be wondering why the following day? Monday? Because i took 1 day leave from work that is. But I think that is going to be wasted AGAIN. Haiz. This always happen. I always mess up my leave. So here I am wondering what i'm going to do to occupy myself during the free time. I am so not going to stay at home facing the computer again. I can do that at work also. Maybe I shall go to the beach to de-stress myself. I need that badly now. Shit happens nowadays so I need time-out. Away from the civilisation. haha. ok me and my crapping. And soon you will wonder..when am i ever serious? Hmm..I wonder too.

Next top models on the runway show!
Definitely will leave you guys breathless at the end of the show.

FANTASTIC PLASTIC WORLD

Note: It is taken from Shahdon's LJ. Reserved all rights.

Have you ever wish to turn back time and relive your childhood days? Those days where you used to do silly things and never be laughed at. Instead it was adorable. Those days you explore new things and easily amused by tinnie-winnie discoveries. Those days where buying colouring books, playing jigsaw puzzles and doing up word search is a common thing to be doing. No one will ridicule you doing such activities. But once you reach that maturity level beyond your childhood years, it seems like committing a crime when you start to get in touch with your "childish" side. People will give the same exact response once you reveal to them your "dirty" secret. Remarks like you are too old for those things is often heard.
Hello people try knocking some sense into yourselves. It is never too old to do the things that you love. It is definitely fine to be enjoying art through buying colouring books and colouring it. It is perfectly fine to master the art of analytical skill through playing jigsaw puzzles and word search. It is without doubt more than just a child-play. It is more of how you view things. It is not always 2-dimensional.

Have i told you guys how much I'm in love with SonyErricsons latest creation? Lovely! True beauty indeed.

According to my Hp calendar which is 99.9% accurate today happens to be Shahdon's Birthday. So I like to take this rarest opportunity to wish him.

HAPPY 20TH BIRTHDAY SHAHDON!!!
SERVE THE NATION AND MAKE US PROUD!

It seems that I lack of free time to relax and do nothing nowadays. After work, it is totally draining. Mentally. I never experience things like this before. Only recently that it happen to me. Perhaps one of the reasons is that I am given more work. Well not exactly more work but more to tedious drafting per file. After a few draftings, I end up being so drained that I wish I can be at home sleeping. But unfortunately, by that time it is only 3 or 4pm. A few more hours to go and that is when I find leisure in reading the newspaper/making myself a hot drink/walking to the reception and start a conversation with her. Well that's life in the office for me and I always look forward to my lawyer going to court and those other superiors out of the office leaving the secretaries and the receptionist to conquer the office. It always spell
F-R-E-E-D-O-M for me. At least I need not have to pretend to be busy or being pile with tonnes of work and photocopying. This is life at work and so far I have yet to regret accepting the job offer. In fact it widen my options for my future.

Today I have plenty of time to spare before I'm off to dreamland/tvland i.e Project Runway. I shall update more than usual. Let me enlighten you people with the "What's Happening?". The previous weekends was jam-packed with emotions. You just name it you get it. Emotions apart, let me give a brief highlight of my weekend. Saturday for some reason feels lively. Started the day with Drama (YCP). Rehearsed for Fauzi's Festive Fiasco. Performed soon after that. As usual, YCP never fails to put up a great show. After that headed straight home to freshen up and went out again. Err..I think now my entry sounds more like what-I-did-today kinda shits. I guess that's about it for Saturday. Details shall not be disclosed then.
Sunday was awesome!! For once I had this festive mood in me. Went out as an honorary member and had so much fun. I reached home at a record-breaking time of 1am! Woah..That's totally so rare for me. Thank goodness I am such a forward-looking person and I applied 1/2day leave on Monday beforehand. So I slept for more hours and woke up refreshed. Oh I think wasted that 1/2 day leave about an hour. I am so dumb. I thought I need to report to work at 1pm but instead it was supposedly to be 2pm. Haiyoh! So I reached work at around 12 plus thinking i was going to be late and ended up being too early. I guess cannot blame me lah hor. I'm still new.

Time really flies. Soon the attache is going back to school. I am so going to miss her. I have no more same "kaki" to engage in a youthful conversation with. Haiz.
AND November is ending soon. It is seriously fast! Soon without realizing it is going to be New Year! Of course, new year for me too! :) I think new year will be the happiest day of my life. Ermm..Well maybe ONE of the happiest day. Oh my Birthday is approaching too! 21! Legalise age! Hurray!! I can get ERS!!

Oh Oh Oh!! The GST is increasing by 2% soon. That will be the most tragic day of my life.

Rushing here and there. Beginning to pick up the old momentum. The old lifestyle I used to be living. I am back to it. It feels good. I miss it so much but there is a price to pay. The tiredness and less time spent at home slacking, doing nothing at all. This lifestyle best suit me for the time being since it helps my brain to work better and effectively. I am more alert. That's the advantage of it.

I have decided to produce something written in malay as a closing for today's entry. I am trying to polish up my malay. My mother tongue.

Memang sudah menjadi hukum alam, setiap manusia hidup berpasangan. Tidak kira tua ataupun muda. Namun, bila hati sudah tidak serasi, syurga menjadi neraka. Retak menanti belah. Penceraian menjadi pilihan muktamad. Kisah cinta adam dan hawa berakhir di dalam mahkamah syariah. Di hadapan 2 saksi. Suatu tragedi. Adakah harus disalahkan takdir? Adakah ianya Qada dan Qadar? Ataupun kemahuan hati sendiri? Pelbagai alasan dan penjelasan yang diberi dua pihak. Samada menyalahkan satu sama lain ataupun saling memaafkan.
Seperti kisah cinta Nurul dan Ajai, mereka saling memaafkan. Tetapi yang anehnya kenapa jika sudah saling memaafkan tetap juga mahu berpisah? Mengapa hanya setelah 10 tahun baru kini dapat merasakan ketidakserasian itu? Mengapa setelah lama tinggal bersama membina mahligai bahagia akhirnya runtuh jua? Mestikah kita menunding jari ke arah suratan Illahi?
Aku teringat kata-kata ibuku.."Alah, artis-artis ni semue bukan nye betul sangat. Kahwin lepas tu berterabur"
Itu lah kata-kata ibuku. Mungkin ada betulnya cakap ibu yang pedas dan agak berat-sebelah itu. Pada pengetahuanku, artis-artis ini hanya menujukkan bahawa kata-kata ibu itu benar. Lihat sahaja berapa ramai artis-artis yang bercerai. Erra Fazira, Noraliza Idris, Awie dan ramai lagi. Angkanya semakin meningkat dan terkini ditambah dua.
Tujuanku bukan untuk memburuk-burukkan artis-artis tetapi setakat berkongsi sesuatu diruang ini.
Tidak juga aku mengatakan bahawa penceraian terjadi setakat dikalangan kaum artis sahaja. Itu memanglah tidak benar. Penceraian berlaku disekeliling kita. Puncanya sama. Tiada persefahaman.

Persefahaman penting bukan sahaja di dalam sebuah perkahwinan malah di dalam apa jua jenis hubungan memerlukannya. Persahabatan, keluarga dan pentadbiran sebuah negara.

Muafakat membawa berkat.

Today marks the end of my probation. Like finally. It is now 3 months into law. How am i feeling about this whole new experience? One word to describe it all. Crazy. Yes it is a CRAZY experience altogether.

Let me list down everything here:

1. I never NEVER even thought of any LAW-related jobs to begin with.
2. The ONLY job interview I went for FUN. No preparation beforehand.
3. The least expected one to be called up after the following 2 weeks.
4. My first-ever REAL job with me having NO experience at all in the area.
5. Working in this law-firm changes my perception about law.
6. Finally, I might be pursuing Diploma in Law if my impression about law remain unchanged.

I am unsure how long i am about to stay in the company and this line but hope there are better plans out there for me. I know for sure I will definitely get bored of the routined weekdays but for now it have yet to reach to a point of intolerance. So i am keeping my options open for now. I am still missing Science. I'm a nerd. Definitely.

Number of the day is:

TEN

10

SEPULUH

Like I said in my previous entry, today is a special day and of course it is. It will never fail to be special.. errmm FOREVER!

It is approximately 5 mins to a loong-awaited Tv program. I think I have mentioned it earlier as well so I wont repeat it anymore. Anyway, after much consideration and weighing the pros n the cons..I finally make up my mind to watch the MUSICAL. I am so so so excited about it! Oh ya! I forget to add this. After a PAINFUL sacrifice as well that I finally make my decision. I have to forgo my initial intention to purchase for myself a decent, inexpensive digicam. Haiz. Nevermind. I guess there is always next month as long as my source of income is still available and no intention of mine to quit as yet..There will always be next month to look forward to.

I am quite contented with the accelerating amount that is accumulating every month. I am so proud of my planning. It works well so far. Soon need to amend the plan and execute it as well. And at least for now I have some plans in mind which will be left pending for the time being. Need the right time and ..... to carry it out. I wont expect too much from now on. I think the reason why i was so devastated and disappointed back then was because my expectation was too high. Well, expectation can leads to destruction sometimes.

Let me start it off with a special message to my beloved friend

HAPPY TWENTIETH BIRTHDAY NADIRA!!!
MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU! HEHE!
HOPE YOU DID ENJOY YOUR DAY..
FRIENDS FOR LIFE YA!

2nd day of Raya and I worked. So totally no mood i tell you. I was stoning at work most of the time. Yesterday was fun! Crap with the cousins and crack jokes. I love it but abit sad at a point of time. No need to elaborate on that. Oh! I am so looking forward to spend this festive season with my fellow friends. Hope we all can go visiting together-gether. It will sure be fun. Right Nad? Hehe.

Wohoo! At last it is raining today. A very nice weather to relax plus the hazy condition is improving GREATLY. Wishing for it to disappear soon.

I am about to have things to spice up my unhappening, boring weekends very soon. Hurray! Thanks to the people who allow it to happen. I shall plan my weekends so that I have a very very NICE weekends to look forward to. There are plenty of FREE events at esplanade to look forward to. I really wanna watch Puteri Gunung Ledang but too expensive. Sad! Never the mind this 27th October 2006 at 8:30pm on SURIA..they will be showing Puteri Gunung Ledang the Movie. I definitely will catch as an alternative to the musical one that i am about to forgo.

*yawn*

Haiyah..So early and yet i am so sleepy. I shall go rest for now. Toodle doodle dee!

SELAMAT HARI RAYA!!!

06's Raya have a whole new meaning to it. No more about money or pretty clothes. It is about something else. Something that is felt. Not seen, heard or spoken. It is within us. Everyone of us...

Hey..Guess what I found in the internet today? I will share it with you guys. Just for interest sake. 10 things men want in a woman. Interesting and kinda true i think. But i think in real life you just have to go with your guts ladies..

Knows what she wants
Confidence is still the name of the game. Many men listed trying to hard to please others (including them) as a turn-off. Instead, women who know what they want (and aren't afraid to ask for it) were described as attractive, sexy and desirable.

Makes me laugh
A sense of humor is as important to men as it is to women. After all, a relationship without its fair share of laughter gets old pretty quickly, if it gets started at all. Lighthearted, witty or utterly ridiculous doesn't seem to matter, as long as you get each other's jokes and aren't afraid to throw dignity to the wind and get silly sometimes.

Takes care of herself
Yes, looks made the list. But no one cited "beauty" or "great legs" among his criteria. Instead, it seems that looking "put together" is essential. Men admitted that they want a woman to "put time into her appearance" and be generally neat and organized while avoiding the "high maintenance" category.

Shares my interests
If you can't agree on what to do together, it gets complicated to be together. It is important to guys that their girls have common interests (or be open to them). Whether they're into rock climbing or old movies, they'd much rather have you along. And even if it's not your thing, simply being curious and open-minded about their work and hobbies can be enough to satisfy their need to be understood.

Surprises me
It's actually not much of a surprise; spontaneity ranked high as a very desirable trait in a woman, though the quality earned varying definitions. For some it was the inclination to make spur-of-the-moment decisions or having a generally "adventuresome" personality. For others it was enough that a woman thought differently than they did and had the ability to surprise them with her outlook, her suggestions or her actions.

Impresses me
Many women get the message that men are threatened or turned off by intelligent, powerful women, but according to the source, that's pure fiction. Guys want someone they can respect. They cited intelligence as a highly desirable quality; quite a few admitted that they preferred a woman who is more intelligent than they are. Strong really is beautiful, so put your best self forward.

Doesn't care what I think
It's not always what they say to our faces, but guys claim to respect a woman who does her own thing, even when it isn't aligned with what he wants. Independence is strong and attractive, and it's a plus when he knows you're autonomous enough to be on your own and have a good time without him.

Tells it straight
Guys don't want to have to play games or guess what a woman wants, so they're drawn to honesty, sincerity and the ability to communicate clearly. If you're straightforward about how you feel and what you want, he can react to you rather than waste time trying to gauge what's really going on. Men aren't exactly pros when it comes to reading our minds, and they know it. Being upfront about how you feel can make it a little easier on everyone.

Cares about me
They didn't seem as concerned with being the sun to her earth as they were interested in women who are genuinely compassionate. While a girl who is the center of her own universe might be intriguing in the beginning, it gets old fast, and men want to be treated with kindness and respect as much as women do. They also notice how we act when it's not about them: back-stabbing and cattiness score high as major turn-offs.

Confuses me
Don't ever feel that you're beholden to one version of yourself or that he'll lose interest if you reveal your "dark" side. Men are strangely drawn to contradictions, and the polarities of your personality are what make you uniquely you. Let yourself be bookish and passionate, conservative but spontaneous, lighthearted and intellectual -- those warring contradictions that can make you crazy can also make you mysterious and continually surprising.

3 days to HARI RAYA!
I'm having PMS big time. This is terrible. I need to get hold of myself and start to enjoy the upcoming festive ocassion. I need to be in my festive mood soon.
Oh anyway, yesterday was my 2nd time going to Geylang. OMG! The earrings!! Those bollywood kind really drive me crazy. And as expected I bought those. 3 pairs in fact. Actually wanna buy more but must be thrifty. Haha!
And shit lah..Have to give Raya money to ppl while others happily collecting money. NO more DUIT raya for me!! *cries*

To those non-muslims and to those muslims that never seem to be fasting..

HAPPY DEEPAVALI!!
From the bottom of mera dil (my heart).

ARGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
I feel so irritated and agitated at almost ANYTHING and EVERYTHING.
Gosh I need a break. From all these. I am sick and tired of going through it every single day. I thought after yesterday I will feel better today. BUT i am so wrong.

I am so so so drained. Emotionally.
I want to give up but I want to stay on.
I want to quit but my heart says otherwise.
I hate feeling like this. I hate being stuck in between.

I am sorry I dont seem as strong as you thought i will be.
I am sorry if i dont understand.
I am sorry i cant be the person you want me to be.
I am sorry for being so difficult.
I am sorry for being such a pain.
I am sorry if i sound hurtful.

The feeling deep down just seem to ache very badly.
It resurfaces even more these days.
It hurt so much i often feel so numb.
It make me wanna breakdown and cry but there's no more tears.

Will things end up my way? Like how i envision it?
I HATE YOU for making me like this.
I HATE YOU. can you just vanish into thin air so that i need not have to face you every single day in that kind of condition? condition which only makes my blood boils even more with hatred. the condition that is so painful to watch.

Who knows what used to be something I never think of taking seriously might soon be my career in a long run. Law? It never register in my brain before and now i am considering taking Diploma in Law. Can you believe it?! This is totally random and I am beginning to steer into a different direction. I am revamping my future goals. Maybe this is fate. Maybe there is underlying meaning behind all these. From the job enquiry up till now.

We will see what fate have in store for me. Hmm..

"Ewah ewah kain langsir ela-ela..Datuk janggut putih nenek rambut merah..Emak jangan berletih bapak jangan marah..jangan masuk kolong..Hari ini HARI RAYA!"

Whee! In less than a week we, muslims gonna celebrate Hari Raya. Guess what? My lawyer gave me a HUGE Hari Raya Hamper! Cool! And my work place is also ready for Raya! I got my new work table just now and it's GREEN! Like ketupat rite? So happy. Now my area is at least much neater and organise. Ok like every Hari Raya..the norm will always be the norm. We will always exchange Hari Raya cards or e-cards or something like that asking for forgiveness. Since blog is a very very public place and very accessible let me post up my Raya message here instead. Save cost and everyone can read. Easy for me easy for you!



Dear Friends and you lovely readers out there,

I take this opportunity to seek for forgiveness for all my wrongdoings especially with regard to what i have said in front or behind you. Hope we can start a new chapter and so I can have more opportunities to create more bad things to you and ask for forgiveness again later. HAHA! Kidding lah. Like I was saying, let's start afresh and forget the past 'cos what is important is the present and the future that awaits us.
I wish you guys all the best in what ever you are doing (of course the good things only), good health, prosperity and progress for our nation. HAHA! ok again nonsense. But I hope you get what i mean. Please remember no matter where you are and how long I have lose contact with you, I will still cherish those days we spent and knowing you once is already a pleasure.
Lastly, wish you all muslims and non-muslims out there..SELAMAT HARI RAYA MAAF ZAHIR DAN BATIN & HAPPY HOLIDAY respectively.

Yours truly,
Halimah Omar (aka Hally or whatever nickname that was given by different individuals)

Ok people!! Back again..at this hour I am still awake. Surprise anyone? No? Nvm..Haha!
Aniwae, just reached home from watching Magus Luna 2. It's been like sooooooo long lah since i last visited Techno and the place never change. Gosh it housed alot of our fun conversations while eating the chicken cutlet rice and drinking ice-lemon tea!! Met ex-dramatec members and of course the juniors. It was like reunion kinda thing and i enjoyed myself.

I think i shall reserve my comments to myself. If you wanna know you can ask me yourselves and I can gladly share my views with you guys.

And..Shit! I miss acting big-scale performance! and most importantly..I miss being BUSY! ok maybe you guys out there will think i'm nuts but I am seriously missing my used-to-be hectic lifestyle. Wanna know why? Becos there seemed to be a kind of adrenaline rush when you are busy and alot of excitement. Suddenly when you are thrown into a routined lifestyle, you feel caged! WAHAHA!
Ok i dunno what i am talking about. But for those who get what i mean..congratulation to you. You are on your way to be the next SINGAPORE BRAINIEST KID! * throws confetti*

Took a few pics with Nad's digicam and perhaps might be uploading it here. see how lah eh. Nw i am itching to get a digicam for myself!! So i need not have to rely on other people and bugging them for pics. BUT shah..I still want all those pictures you owe me! This is totally not professional and at the rate you are going..I am not gonna hire you as my wedding photographer ah! Lebih rela hire orang tanjung pinang sey!

This week is a very tiring week for me. On top of my work, I had rehearsals and today is the actual performance. It was kinda last minute but thanks to Effa I think we have a chance to pull it off. Glad she came yesterday and she is very professional. And she is very easy to work with. Thank God. Ok I am nervous now. I just hope I dont screw up the lines and it is an interactive play ah! Scary shit.

My apologies to YCP for unable to attend the weekly training. It's either I am super tired or for now..It's me helping Nurul with her mini project. I will try to attend soon. So so sorry people.

Two days back, I had two very weird encounter and at the same time it was testing my patience.
The first one was no surprise. It was me at work and trying to call up a client asking her for some informations to fill up a Transfer form. I was dreading to call her by the way. I knew back then it was going to happen again. Bloody shit you know. Now I think..serve her right to be divorced. She ought to be divorced. If I'm her husband I will do the same. I asked a few simple questions and then there she was trying to make my blood boils. Idiot!
The second was shocking i tell you. I was at the traffic light near my area when suddenly a chinese woman bumped her body onto mine. Crazy i tell you. I was too bewildered to even tell her off. I think she is crazy because the guy at the traffic light was smiling knowingly. I just crossed the road without turning at her.

These human beings are trying to test my bloody patience during this Ramadhan. Lucky I didnt lose my patience. Actually come to think of it, I am really super patient lah. No kidding.

Hady is the new Singapore Idol. Yes my instinct aint working out right then. haha. Nvm. Despite the failed instinct, i am truly happy for Hady. Yes he deserves it and i underestimated the voters. I thought they will go for Jonathan since 2 years ago the title fell into Taufik's hand but i was wrong. They aint prejudice afterall. Kudos Singaporean!

Today i received last minute notice which i accepted with open-heart. However, i am worrying about the end-product of something so last-minute. I hope it work out fine. Let's just wait and see. At work, I broke out of the daily rountine of mine. I get my hands on something new today. Probate matter. It excites me of course. Learning again something new. Fortunate for me that I read those stuffs beforehand and thus I dont get so lost.

I wonder why the days seem to pass so slowly and i am not even looking forward to anything during the weekend. Haiz.

Local programmes are entertaining at times. Recently, i find Singapore Idol season 2 entertaining in its own way. Take note i am viewing it in a different perspective altogether. It's interesting to find out how singaporean is voting for their next idol which time and again stir up lots of controversies. Remember how singaporean reacted when those better singers got voted out and how they constantly blamed it on Joakim? haha. I am not even surprise if after the result is announce tonight, more issues will be brought up. My gut feeling is telling me Jonathan is going to win this no matter how many people said Hady is the more deserving one. Yesterday's comments from the judges prove my instinct. Sort of i guess.

Anyway, local stuffs are not as bland as thought. There are local productions with substance waiting to be recognised. Waiting to be noticed by the public. So when you think local stuffs are all tasteless, look again. You might just find something worth watching in the comfort of your home.
