Ivy's Vine Yard

忽然间，在这刹那，我有了很多很多感想。。很多感触。。。

为何我会让这样的事情发生？？？我很纳闷。。。感觉真得很痛。。。

总以为我是活在个很开心的世界里，朋友很多，爱我的人也很多。。

但现在，我觉的，我不但得走出我的虚幻世界，也要努力的走回这真正的世界里去。。。

只能怪我自己太天真，太幼稚了。。。

Have been chasing after my own tail recently.. bz with work, with school.. etc (yep ivy is finally taking her degree course after talking abt it for the longest time..)..

Today is a MC day for me, thus finally got the time to blog

School is good.. just that there are many assignments and im out with my group mates almost all the weekends since school started in end sept..

Work is good... just that got a couple of deadlines to meet.. went to HK recently for a biz trip and extended my stay alone.. felt loney in the beginning (for the first few hours, first time in a country alone.. didnt feel eally good..) but after a good prayer with Daddy God, read the 1st chapter of good book and a good night rest.. i felt much better..and went to explore the place on my own..yes.. i overcame the loneliness in me.. :)

DIdnt take alot of pixs.. will post on FB once i got the time..

I finally got the chance to log onto MSN for small chats... found that WJ had a new bloggie.. i wonder how have things been recently for my this old friend.. miss her.. 

i realised how long i have not been meeting up with my friends and family recently..even for the colleagues that i see everyday.. i didnt have the chance to do a nice quiet dinner also..

 y am i so bz??? blame it on poor time management..:(

Have been working in this firm for 1.5 years, many changes took place.. pple joined and pple left..sometimes when i walk ard the offc, i get the "foreign" feeling.. so many new faces!

Top management changed in recent mths, resulting the cut of our incentives trips, guess my friends will get to see me more in town compared to last year..

Many are looking out now, morale kidda low in the office and other departments.. for some, i feel that its time to move on after many years of svcs, for some, there's just yuckky pple above them and i truly feel that they dun deserve that kind of treatment.. im kidda cool there, got a slight change in my portfolio... doing the thing that i like more..very projects based.. sld be there for a while more unless there are changes that i cant stand..

Havent been seeing the gals and even friends recently.. wonder how are they... received some invites from pple asking for meet ups.. will try to learn the art of time management soon so that i will meet up and do some catchups!

Oh ya.. my little God daughter is out on the 2nd May, same bdae as the Dad.. havent got chance to see her and the mum yet.. will try to see a good time to pop by..

Stay tune

Just found a new function on my lappy that i can blog directly to my bloggie just with 1 click! This makes things easier for me to put down my thoughts!

With the piggy year ending in less than 24hrs, guess i sld pen down some thoughts and things to remember for the last year.

Mat joined our family in mid of the piggy year and my daughter coco went missing in the last mth (9 Jan) of the piggy year..Very sad.. but i guess and do hope she is now living happily with a good family that can give her more love more than i do..

Many things happened in the year.. really hope for the better for this new year! Hope for good career, good health, improved relationship and have clearer thoughts to proceed on..

Do hope for good health for my family esp mama, dada, chrisy & matt..

Do hope for good career for willy, alv, obc, sy, larry, ed, lor egg & ah ger

Do hope for wisdom for bossie, ruthy, des, ah long han & gavin..

eh.. i think im more like praying now..kekeke.. ok lah.. just on the whole a very 旺旺 year for everyone! HUAT AH!

Havent been blogging for a couple of months, finally got some time to pen down my thoughts.

Many things happened in the past year.. happy ones, sad ones.. too many to recall..Times with frens, collegaues, family, cg menbers, alvin ......arrival of Matthew that brought my family closer together, me being back in church, the 8 trips that i went this year.. all the above do really brings back pleasant memories.. now that the new year had started, it's time to fix some new year resolution again.. (yah, need to fix some even though most of the time didnt achieve lah..kekekek) ...me being the "SLOW" type.. i have not really sat down and plan till now... thk it sld be out this weekend lah.. But well.. at least i got something that im proud abt.. i ended and started the year with a healthy dose of "Swimmimg Jab"!.. Ya.. went for a swim on both days.. very shiok..!

This wekend its the 1st wkend of the year and im pack with activities.. have a singing practice tonight for tmr's performance, followed by a mt up session with Reagan's MC (Ya.. this Ah Boy is getting married next Thu and Yours Truly is the wedding planner) till late. Will be having another practive tmr 2pm, followed by performance from 4.30pm to 7.30 and Elaine's Wedding at Shang.. Oh Boy..thk im gog to be a good gal this sunday and stay at home after svc to get some rest..

Till then..

Noticed that i havent been blogging recently.. Well have been rather bz for the past few mths.. bz with work and most importantly, bz with the many incentive trips that i have clocked this year...kekeke...(maybe someone will be soclding me now..kekekeke)..

Well..Working on most of the sat either from home or in office, meeting randomlly with frens or family in the night.. and left with my precious sun which i spend in church from morning till maybe 3pm.. rush to meet whoever i can for the week.. life like this had been on for the longest i can remember..haiz..But something my boss told me on monday made me really happy.. he say might consider employing a person to help me in the admin work...! Initially i thought it wasnt a good idea.. but after more thoughts, thk getting one is still better..so that i can be freed up to do the pdt marketing that im real keen in... so now praying hard that bossie will really employ a staff for me...

Incentive Trip...Well will be gog for another one next week.. 10 to 14 Nov to Vienam, HCM. Not very very exicted abt it now.. coz will foresee a very bz week ahead and many deadlines.. so maybe the "exciting moment" will only come on Fri lah..

Got a nice little bag flown from US this week..will post the pix when i got the time lah

Just signed up an account with facebook and adopted a new pet!!.. Name is cookiemonster (see left for his pix）.. very cute hor??? Very new to this enviornment, still at exploring stage.. this cant share much.. will keep this updated in the next entry

Was out for trips again since the last updates, and my count of overseas trips that i went  since jan is standing at 7 now. Very broke.. yet felt very lucky and happy.. Will be posting the long out-dated korea photos, as well as recent taipei trip these few days.. 

Since taipei was the most recent one, let me blog down my moments there for record purpose!

Mentioning abt taipei.. we encountered the "best" taiwanese gift that u can ever have.. it's called the 台风 from the very 1st day! Strong rain and wind continued till the second nite. Very new to all of us and we were advised to stay indoors. But as typical s'poreans, of coz we couldnt miss the chance to experience this kind of "weather", thus we went out the very moment we put our barangs down in our grand hyatt hotel rooms. I sld say this is some wind that i have never experienced in my life.. very exciting yet dangerous. We braved thru the rain and wind to 101 and have a quick bite. Had a company dinner in the evening at some cozy restuarant/pub and went to 饶河夜市.. sadly, there's only a couple of shops opened, so didnt buy alot..

Shopping Malls were closed in the 2nd day morning, thus we all had to stay indoors to watch tv programs. Well.. how exciting can it get when all the channels are reporting on the latest development of the Sepha typhoon. Stuffed ourselves with heavy breakky in the morning and finally decided to brave ourselves again for some shooping when we learned that some malls are opened in the afternoon. Went to 新光三越, bought abit of things and went back to load off. After much nuahing.. instant noodles was our option for dinner. Went to 士林夜市 to shop after that before and we decided to visit one of their famous 夜店- Lava. Location is near 华纳维秀(WarnerVillage). Cover was at NT1000 per pax (abt $50). Considered ex to s'pore. Hip Jop Music. Have a great time together with Ah Tau, Leslie, Ger & Lor Egg. See photos for the exciting moments. Ended at 3am

Woke up at 7am for our fully packed city tour. Went to 阳明山 for hot spring. Didnt go for a dip since i had already experienced that last year and was feeling feverish due to rain the day b4. Went to tour the area instead. Called up 政杰 and informed that i was in town. Went to 鼎泰丰for lunch and proceeded to 九份。Ate alot there, bought abit. Was dropped at 西门町 for another round of shooping before proceeding to our shabu shabu dinner. Left the dinner place half way with ger & lor egg as i was running fever. Slept till 11plus, got better and joined them for another round of 夜店 night. Wanted to go to the place that 政杰 recommended - Room 18 but was closed. Thus went back to Lava since they are in the same building. Was joined by 老大's group, DJ's Group and the pple from the night b4. Cover was at at surprising NT$300 with a free flow of drinks since it was a sunday! Drank abit and enjoyed like the nite b4. Ended at abt 4am.

Was woken up by Jen early next morning by her packing as they were going back that afternoon. Checked out of hyatt and went over to our hotel in 西门町. Paradise wasnt bad for a 3 star hotel, only thing is that we we given a room without windows, so if we off the lights, it really dark in the day! Arranged to meet up with 政杰 in 士林夜市 in the evening. Went for some local food and was back for a little nap. Fever continued. Met up with him at 10+ for some 正宗泡泡茶！Damn big cup!.. Oops, sld be flask!..Brought us to cover the rest the area that we had missed. Ended abt midnight. Buried myself into 2 thick cotton 棉被 for the night.

Since our flight is at 6pm, we decided to sleep a little longer for the last morning. But was woken up at the housekeeping pple next door at 9am. Went out alone for a walk and freshair. Checked out at 12 and went for more local food.. eg 臭豆腐 and 鲁肉饭. The 臭豆腐 is really damn 臭 until i threw out the moment i bite it!..  Left for airport 4pm, on plane at 7 and reached home at midnite. On MC for 2 days and was back to work on Fri. That ended my 5D4N taipei trip. Great Trip with great travelling partners! Will sure to look forward for more trips with them! Stay Tune for more updates

** Btw, My Sis's little one is almost 2 mths old now and have been growing very fast. Each time i see him, he's getting more and more adorable by the day.. i will be placing some photos of his growing stages in my album..

试着努力的去擦，那些自以为的潇洒,

但总还是有一些被留下

能否让这真实的心 大声的呐喊出心中的话 ... ...

淋湿了一身的回忆 该如何洗净  

是否越是不轻意 日后的伤口 越细

终于痊愈了 你那段一直在呐喊的过去 

Havent been blogging recently. Have been to some trips over the past 2 mths.. have been on intensive study week and am in my exam week now, having my final exam tmr at 9.30am. Very tired now, dun feel like touching my notes now, thus taking a rest

没有好感怎会相亲相爱  大哥只是掩饰
能做对爱侣堕落成朋友  谁心息

**我要爱情不需要登对  不需得你允许
兄妹真有趣  不需要分居  忘记辈份再追
我要爱情摧毁世交也不失一个壮举
相恋的证据  假使要争取  唯有约定和大哥喝醉 **

mu…..ye….wo…o

曾经双手执一柄枪  想逼供你一趟  我和你无爱谁没有试想

如果恋爱必须创伤  想你亦明白到我俩 需开心都也受救伤

没有好感怎会  相亲相爱大哥只是掩饰
能做对爱侣堕落成朋友  谁心息

Repeat **            a…wu…ye…a

Repeat **
