I just realized that Darren Hayes was part of Savage Garden!! Till now, I am still listening to their all time favorite Hits "truly, Madly, Deeply" and "I Knew I Loved You".
I got to know that he was that Savage Garden guy through an interview on TV. He mentioned that he was happy not to be associated with Savage Garden anymore. He mentioned something like fans should focus on his current solo achievements and not to still think about Savage Garden.
I second him for this. Savage Garden did gave him a start in his music career. However, as times goes by, people start to want things to go their way. I quoted this from one of the articles about their breakup years ago, "We've both had a lot of success together. We'll probably have a lot of success independently in the future."
People bound to look for green pastures at the other side. It seems that not all people want to stay stagnant in doing the same thing or having the same kind of success all over again. All of us like to explore what we can achieve by ourselves.
This triggers me to look, plan ahead. Never look back and regret.
I have to say that Darren Hayes has successfully getting people not associating him with Savage Garden. At least, I am one of them.
Sheila wrote a testimonial for me in friendster. It feels kinda funny having my own sis writing a testimonial for me. She mentioned that her friends actually think that I am really pretty. I was like -_-?? I am neither photogenic nor I look really good in person. Worst still, I am always in my glasses most of the time.
Haha~ I guess beauty really lies in the eyes of beholder. I had colleagues asking me why I only put on contact lenses on Friday. They commented that I look nicer without glasses. I want to look pretty everyday too but my sensitive eyes don't allow me to do so. So, contact lenses are only save for weekends and special occasions.
All of us can look pretty everyday as long as we put in effort. True beauty is more than skin deep. I hope I got the term right.
To me, a true beauty besides looking good, is one whom is confident of herself, comfortable with who she is ,has a passion for everything she does and is sensitive of people around her.
I am only less than half way to becoming the beauty I want to be.
Tell me what's your definition of beauty.
As we get older, we just get wiser.
We know times when we need talk more or less.
I seem to be talking lesser nowadays.
Most of the time, I just wish to be left alone.
But it isn't doing me any good.
Life is just so ironic.
On a brighter note, I am beginning to appreciate life more and not let irritating stuff brings me down. I maybe not be or have the best but I will make the best out of what I have.
Who knows God may have better things for me in future?
Hmm.. I am waiting for the better things to come along~
With the low temperatures and frequent rains, Singapore feels so winter now. Its like freezing cold every morning. It makes me feel so Christmas as well..
I wana have a white Christmas but that's impossible coz Singapore don't snow. If not, I'll just have a warm Christmas with all my loved us with me.
Will my wish for Christmas come true?
We shall see then..

Stairway to Heaven finally come to an end. I don't really like the ending. Korean shows are all fairy tales!! Korean guys featured in the shows are freaking rich, handsome and loving!! I want that kind of guys too but they don't exist in reality. Haha~
Now's updates on what I did over weekend~
Friday
Met up with my dearest ex colleagues, Meiting and Jenny. Really miss working with these gals~ Had dinner at one of the Japanese restaurant at Marina. Chatted alot of stuff regarding work. Realized lots of things had changed ever since we went separate ways. I am being transferred to A&H while Meiting and Jenny remained at Tower. Now, Meiting is transferred to Alexandra while Jenny had tender her resignation. No matter what we are doing now, I still hope that we could meet up once in awhile to chill or so. Last but not least. also to wish dear Jenny all the best in her new job.
Saturday
This day was our dearest AK's 21st birthday!! His birthday celebration was held at a KTV pub in Mount Faber Safra. Its kind of cool, different from those kind of typical chalet celebration. Saw lots of familiar faces there, mostly ICT peeps. Food was so-so andthere's unlimited supply of Carlsberg!! Din really drink much, only shared a bottle with Waicheng and Huarong. Most of the people left around 11. Huarong and me stayed on as we don't feel like going home so early. We had lots of fun singing and chatting. It had been a long time since we have so much fun together. The lucky thing was that Shukai was not around so we could have our girls talk. Haha~
I realized that 21st birthday celebrations are meant for friends to gathering. Its not easy to meet up in a big group since everyone graduated. Each of us have our own commitments, be it your gf/bf or your other friends. Life's just isn't the same anymore. Only at such occasions, you can get to meet friends that you do not meet frequently. That's the time for some real serious catching up.
Though we may lead different lives now, all the friends still occupy a special place in my heart. It really feels great to see them again. I hope others feel the same way as I do.
Sunday
A day spent eating,drinking and shopping~ Went town with Agnes in the afternoon. We had our brunch at Long John at Fareast Plaza. After brunch was shopping!! Agnes bought a green necklace while I got myself a pair of black heels. We went Wheellock's Brikenstock and tried on a few pairs. My conclusion was that I want to own at least 1 pair of them!! Don't ask me what's so fascinating about them. I just love them they way they are and how they fit nicely into my feet. My current love is Florida English Garden White. Its cheaper to purchase online but we gotta wait for them to ship over. Can I have a pair of Brikenstock by Christmas?
Dinner was at a Hongkong style cafe along upper east coast road with the courtesy of Agnes bf's RX 8. Food was good and of coz with great company as well. Me and Wen tried to give Agnes a surprise for her birthday but we failed. Shall not go into details. Its a big big failure!!
Anyway, wanted to tell dear Agnes that her boy is a good one. He mentioned something when we tried to pay him for our share of food. The thing he said was like "No need to pay la coz you all bought her something". The thing we bought for her was like totally no link to the food we ate. Haha~ Anyway, I just felt that that was really sweet and nice of him.
That's all for now. Gonna have my beauty sleep now~
I want to... These are jus a few things that I want to do now. City life is just to hetic and fast paced. I need a break !!
I came across a blog and reading the blogger's love story somehow triggers some memories.
It had been nearly a year and I realized how time flies. All this while, I am always keeping myself busy with work and hanging out with friends make myself more occupied.
Alot of people are pretty surprised that I'm not attached. Do I look as if I have the 'I have a boyfriend' look. Haha~
At times I wonder, did I really fall in love before? I can't seem to remember much about the previous relationship or how that person look like. The last communication we made was a birthday SMS that I sent to him. I found it rather stupid after sending. Its feels like the send for the sake of sending feeling but all I wanted was to give him my wishes. The reply given was so polite.
I have to admit I used to hope to bump into him when I walk pass Pacific Plaza on a Saturday night. I went Chinablack because I hope to see him there. Yeah. The last time I went clubbing in May was the day I bump into him. That was outside Pacific Plaza. Haha~ Stupid. I choose BBDC partly because he lives at Bukit Batok. I always wonder would I bump into him at Golden Mile Hawker Centre on a Saturday afternoon. That's where the NS pple get their stuff.
I stopped my driving lessons due to budget and time constraint. Thought of switching to private instead, school is too costly. Shall plan well before I decide on anything..
I seem to be in a daze now. I guess some memories still stay but feelings fade. But the funny thing is, I can't remember much. Is it considered a good or bad?
As usual, I am abit contradicting. I can't remember much yet I hope to bump into him. But somehow I feel that we might not even recognize each other now. I believed we all had changed and people might even got himself a galfriend or what so ever.
Anyway, I just wana blog out my thoughts. I guess its healthier this way then bottling all inside.
I was told I would not be able to get my pay for the month of October on time. This isn't a really good news. I'm looking forward to that after a month of hard work.. Who doesn't right? The feeling really sucks.
My savings are seriously running low. Need to contribute part of my pay to the family as well. I need to feed myself and my shopping habits. Haha~
We used to say that money can't buy happiness. This is only true to a certain extend.
Look at those people leaving in the third world countries. They are living in poverty without proper housing and food. Imagine their expressions when kind volunteers present with them with some food stuff , its priceless. Though it sounds free, all the food stuffs that were donated cost money as well. Who says money can't buy happiness?
I know that's not exactly a good example but that applies to us as well. We would not be happy if we were not able to get what we want just because we do not have enough money. We all need to at least look good in order to survie in this competitive world.
Looking good includes investing on nice clothes and taking care of your looks. All these needs money as well. If we were to look good, we somehow feel good about ourselves as well. It indirectly increases our self confidence. With confidence, you are able to perform well in whatever you do and happiness do come along.
Haha~ Money certainly do able to buy happiness to a certain extend. What about the part of happiness where money cannot buy? This is where family, friends and love ones come into the picture. You can't use money to buy the family whom will stay by your side no matter what happens, friends whom loves you for who you are and the destined one who is able to spend a lifetime with you.
Haha~ I want both the happiness that money can and cannot buy. I know I'm greedy but who doesn't want that? =P
It feels so great to have 2 public holidays in a week. So called less work and more time to laze around. Yesterday, I went shopping again!! I gonna become a shopaholic soon. I wanted to get more stuffs but dear Nana stopped me from overspending. Haha~ Invited Nana over to my house for dinner. My sis finally cooked after so many months. I missed home cooked food!! Good news is that Mummy is fually coming end of November!! Someone to cook and wash my clothes for me~ But most importantly is that I miss her presence. As usual, there's lots of things on my mind. I'll keep pondering but nothing came out of it. So many questions marks, no answers. So many things that I don't understand. Why? Why? Why? Heck all the unhappy and irritating stuffs~Think so much also like that. Shall just act blur and be happy go lucky ya~ Lastly, Selemat Hari Raya to all and may all of us enjoy the hols. =)
Shop, Shop, Shop.. Shopping makes Lynnie a happy gal!!
Met up wif Nana at Orchard. We shopped all the way from Far East Plaza to Bugis. Haha~ We both concluded that we can exclude Far East Plaza as one of our shopping haunt for the time being. There's practically nothing much to see and buy from there. We found most of the clothes there too 'teeny' and fashionable. No offence to those who likes to shop there. I do hope we can manage to find good stuff there in future.
In the end, I got all the stuff I wanted at Bugis. Bugis is somehow nicer to shop than Orchard. As I always say, Orchard is just a place to see and to be seen. Haha~
Within 2 hours, I bought:
