I just realized that it's actually quite hard to blog.

Revealing a little of my true self to strangers is already quite a feat, let alone baring your entire heart to the whole of cyberspace.
So I find myself facing this barrier when it comes to typing out passages on my blog.

Like for example, today. I wanted to blog about how tired I am at work, and everything I felt and did; but when I take a lil' while to ponder, I hesitate, and ultimately decide not to type those out anyway.

That's why I chose to type out this crap. Why? Simply because I don't want people to read, and start judging me from the way I behave and the things I do. Right, so I am actually concerned about how the world views Sylvia as a person.

I really hope I regain that passion. I know its fading but I can't stop it. ROAR. I need to study. Help?

Talk about growing older. People start to change their mindsets about their goals, their aspirations, their likes and dislikes; or in general, their future.

When we were younger, I suppose the one most frequently asked question by our teacher would be "What do you want to be when you grow up?"

Sometimes, when I look back now, I feel that that is an utterly insane question to be posed to someone with a pea sized brain. It could be a kind act to spark some motivation for us to study, but that is also getting us to make unrealistic goals.

I mean, at age 7, the only careers I knew existed were that of a Teacher, a Lawyer, a Policeman, a Firefighter, a Doctor, a Nurse, a Clerk, an Army Personnel, and a Janitor. I didn't even know the canteen uncle's career was cooking food for me. He was just a nice, friendly old man who made lovely curry fishballs, and were only willing to share it with people at a exorbitant price of 30cents because he wasn't that generous after all.

On the contrary to my naive thinking at that time, there were billions of posts out there in the working society. Who said one could only choose to save people or just be saved? That's utterly ridiculous.

I just found my dream job, something I would aspire to do. (: I want to serve the world. And I know there are people out there who share just the same kind of passion as me. (: weeee~



When friends hurt you, you scream and rant. When true friends hurt you, your heart tears, but you won't make a noise.

The first week of school was hectic.

The return of Common Test papers was an adrenaline rush. Honestly, I really hope I do well for my final exams. With all the work piling on top of me right now, I know I am just inches away from a complete burnout.

On a lighter note, the Spring Cleaning event is turning out just right. The response we're getting is heartwarming, and the volunteers are all so fun to be with. :D Somehow, I've got this gut feeling that tells me that the Spring Cleaning event will turn out to be a great success! and I'm uber excited. :D

Work today was awesome, much because there wasn't much work to do.

There were mostly tour groups the entire day, and tourists happen to be dead loyal followers. So they couldn't care less when a friendly attraction host approached them to ask if they wanted to buy tickets. They simply shoved us aside and cornered their poor tour guide to bombard him with questions.

More importantly, almost all the tour groups were Indians. So it almost felt like we were in India. They came in massive amounts and couldn't stand still, so you can imagine how groggy you can get just staring at that scene. No offense though.

Anyway, apart from the Indians, there were Caucasians still, and a group of Russians who looked freakishly sexy. The men had bellies that were so firm, they look pregnant. The women had killer curvaceous figures to die for.
So much for working eh? xD

Yesterday's dinner was much fun. Being with Yue an and Pohyih never fails to cheer me up. (: I haven't laughed so heartily in ages already. :D So I had my fill at Subway. The ending was a little traumatizing though. I couldn't get used to the way their meeting was conducted. Nevertheless, I learnt new economics concepts from them! :D *jumps around*

JC students are really smart. Their projects are almost equivalent to 5 times the difficulty of a normal Problem Based Learning Project. Great job Yueyue and Powpow. (: You guys are great.

Being back in ngeeann feels great; but somehow, Sweet Seventeen hasn't turned out so sweet, the way I expected it to be. What a surprise how things ended up the way things are like now. Maybe some things were meant to happen and some weren't. Perhaps I couldn't have changed what was predestined.

To the fly. One day you'll understand some things are never meant to be. (: Don't wait. Just fly away.

Happy New Year PEOPLE! For all the well wishes; Happy 2009 ahead too! :D

A brand new year, means new goals, new aspirations, new beginnings, new endings, new surprises, new EVERYTHING! :D

I made a new resolution today! I want to save money, and open a Fixed Deposit account by the end of this year! :D
It's gonna be hard for someone like me [i eat a lot :P], but I'm gonna give it a shot. ;)

so what's your new year resolution? :D



a brand new feeling I've never felt before. (:

Sylvia. Syl. And someone you'll never expect me to be.
