I’m looking forward to the grand opening of Resort World at Sentosa. When we talk about 5 years, 10 years or even few decades ago, we have no idea that today, we are having an Integrated Resorts in Singapore, in addition with marine bay sands. It is quite a big thing to us in a very small island and doing it globally, because, the whole world is looking at us, and we have to make sure that everything runs well.
Few months ago when I was still working at Sentosa, working as an attraction Host, I saw nothing, but wires sticking out from the ground. But now I could see the whole structure, with buildings and even the beautiful shelter of the monorail at the IR development station. The most exciting is the roller coaster. I feel like hopping on to it! But have to wait for construction to be finished.
I’ve always been wondering, will Singapore Integrated Resorts made through? Until yesterday, I could say yes, especially Resorts world. With Sentosa itself, together with IR which includes, theme park, it make a huge different. Moreover, there will be 6 hotels with 6 different themes and the universal studio, another part which I’m also looking forward to it. So as a whole, we have everything, we have the beaches, casino, theme park, museums, hotels, spas, many experience in one place. I can put them in my list for a weekend getaway. So start saving!

I know I’ve not been blogging, at the same time I do not know where to start with. But, as usual we talk about how our life goes, the things we do or the people we met and etc.
Life has been very different for me since I start working. I don’t know why, I feel an alarm clock triggering me that its time to grow up. And yes I’m growing up, I started to think like an adult, I need a cup of coffee every morning, I’m very eager to get a car license and more which sometimes I ask myself am I Diana? But the fresh graduated look and attitude & well-being is still instilled in me, and I believed it takes time for everything to grow.
The people I met are also an eye opener to me. I’m considered one of the youngest in the company, which I’m trying to say, I work along with people of middle age and senior citizens. Well, I’m glad that RP thought me how to socialize and I’m doing great, just that besides talking about work, I ran out of topic. So normally there are the ones who start talking about their children, wife, gf stories and I will be the one listening to them. I’m sorry I can’t give any good advices because I have not come across and neither do I have any experience, I have not reach that far yet.
Next thing which I want to share is, I regret for not working hard enough. When I saw my friend appears at the main page of TP website as a scholarship receiver. I was sad for a moment and kept thinking why can’t I be like her? And what went wrong with me. I was thinking will things be different if I’ve put extra more effort? Well, I don’t know. Maybe that’s what meant to be. But I hope one day I will do something proud.
Last thing, I really miss all my friends. I know that i've drifted from some of them and became closer to some of them. I realised that they come and go at different point of life and mean differently to you. sometimes I do really hope that I can keep in touch with everyone. But it seems impossible. I would be more interested to know few years down the road, who stay, who left.

I gotta admit that I’ve been lazy to blog
Maybe just an update:
My life has been very mundane since the day I start working.
It is a process where everyone has to go through. Starting from pre-school, primary, secondary and so on till u stop schooling and out in the working society. Isn’t that boring??? The reason why you are brought /born to this world? And the purpose of life. I don’t get the point. Can’t we have our very own ways of life? It can be done but the thing is there will be many problems behind it that might affect people around you. I rather not. You know there are many things which I want to do but I’m part of “responsible” to my house, else I’ll do whatever shit I want.
It’s been a month for me in this company and I have grown a lot. I’ve finally understand the real working world is. There is more than just doing your work/parts. All I want to say is that always try to protect yourself or should say cover your ass because working world is evil.
Well I have also came to know and realized that its time for me to settle down. I’m not talking about marriage here. But a bf whom I can settle down with and accept me for who I am. For the past few yrs, having a bf was always the last thing I would consider. I don’t find it necessary, as I felt that I’m contented with life, I wanna be free, knowing as many friends as possible, do what I like. But after all, I felt abit sad huh when I was typing my colleague’s particulars; I should say almost 70percent are married. For what I know, the remaining 30 percent, 20 percent are attached. Some already have kids when they are just late 20s. So I’m 1 of them who contributed to the 5 percent. So I assume that my Mr Right has lost his way.
Anyway that’s all for now. I know my life has not been amazing and colorful. Unless I’m Paris Hilton who do not need to worry about anything in a day. The world is unfair.

I’ll always try to blog as much as I can to keep track of my daily life. However, due to my busy work life right now, its way impossible. And it’s just the BEGINNING!
This week was not a smooth week for me.
Firstly, I received my letter from NTU. Before I opened it, my sentiment tells me that something not right.
Indeed! Application for admission to Nanyang Technological University In academic Year 2009-10, NOT SUCCESSFUL! Although I didn’t put much hope, but I’m sad through.
Secondly, my work place. I’m still a newbie in the company; there is still a lot of things I’m unsure of. My senior, who is my mentor, didn’t make it to work for 4 days. During that 4 days, I’m supper stress because people start coming up to me and I didn’t know how to settle them.
Thirdly, how many times I have told my family, DO NOT TOUCH MY THINGS!!!!! My Mum likes to pack my stuffs, I appreciate your kindness BUT cant you just leave it there! I hate to search high and low for it and sometimes she didn’t know what she is packing and I need to search and dig elsewhere. Argh!
My brother likes to mess up my stuffs because he is too lazy to get anything for himself. He will steal my stationeries and things he need for the day. It’s ok if you take my things, BUT DON’T MESS UP!!!! ITS SO IRRITATING!!!!!! ARGH!
Anyway it’s enough for the week. I could feel my life is shortened by few years.

I have not touched my laptop for 5 days and I feel that my com became slower and lagger. Am I thinking too much? Or I’ve been dealing with fast pace environment? That everything is going too fast that I’m not used to it when I’m back to original state?
It’s been a hard 5 days for me, and it’s finally weekend! Since the first day of work, I have been telling myself how much I miss school! Working is so mundane, unlike schools where you meet people of your age group; do whatever you want provided your work is done, joke around in class & most important cannot be late else will be fired!!!!My work place is full of Ah pek and middle age man, for the first time I feel soooo young. In fact, I AM actually.
Anyway it’s good to meet up with besti Hafizah again. It been 584098528534732095702375 years I ever seen her. Along the way I met some of my friends too. It’s nice to see everyone on a Friday evening! And I even saw this artist, he smiled to me but I don’t know his name. Afterall, my day end of smoothly….

I have come to the end of the journey of Sentosa as an attraction host; it was my last day today. Even through it was a short period of time; I went through lots of phrases, from a few selections of interviews to a temp staff, from a temp staff to official staff. It wasn’t easy for the whole process; it takes a lot of hard work, time and effort. I feel proud that I have come this far, waking up everyday at 5am for work, learning history of Singapore, memorizing spiels, knowing the place of sentosa. I need to talk almost every 5 minutes, saying the spiels that I memorized. I felt productive! But the muscles of my face feel numb because I need to smile all day. So that’s Tourism! I wanted to progress much more like Tram Host and Guided Tour but however it’s still a part time job. I need a full time job which earns thousand/s. somehow, if I’m back to studies, I might consider joining back. Because I LOVE IT! Lol and I enjoyed taking staff price cable car! The night ride is so beautiful!
Preparing for the next turning point…..

Oh my damm god. My legs and buttocks are aching right now after my SMU Adventure race. The race includes: running, cycling, skating, vertical marathon and navigation. Everything was fine BUT the worst part was navigation!!! We were given a map at the checkpoint and it leads us to another checkpoint. SO I think I travelled almost half of the Singapore and felt that I’ve lost 3KGs. The race distance should be 25km and I felt that I travelled 100km today. Shag!
So what's next???

Time flies. Even when it seems impossible, it passes eventually. It’s the end of March, and I have not secured a full time job. It’s that so hard to just offer me a job? And I’m a certified diploma holder, I can’t take up a job which is way below 1300, might as well I stop at O’ level education? Well sometimes I just feel like giving up but I can’t. I can’t stay on too long working as a part timer, unless I continue my studies?
Hafizah will be coming back from Beijing tomorrow and I can’t wait to see her soon. At the same time, next Wednesday will be our graduation night and I’m looking forward to that day. Taking pictures and catching up a little. Its will be the last night for us seeing each other as everyone is going in diversity, but I hope someday in future it will be great seeing everyone of you again.
Yeah I will be joining SMU ADRACE this coming 26 April. I have not participant in any adventure race before so I guess it will be fun!

I’m back from Bangkok, fatally sick. At least, I’m feeling more peaceful right here because back there at Bangkok there was nothing. I don’t trust their medications and their health care system. And my mum insists that I have to be back.
I don’t know why I fall sick suddenly, I started coughing in the afternoon followed by fever in the evening, I can’t tell what exactly my feeling was, happy, sad, concoction of both. But I know that I felt awful because of my coughing. And I lost my voice the next day. I’m lucky enough that I’m able to get a flight back to Singapore the next day as it is normally full when you book at the very last minute. Thank god. Well, it was my very first time taking plane alone, I’m proud of myself. 3 claps! Haha
Anyway I’m sorry that I made my family and friends worry about me. But I’m ok now! Safe & sound in Singapore and I had just visit my doctor.

Today’s function was City harvest church dinner; it was carried out more professional and grand today because the hotel’s general manger and all the big wits were here for the function. I guess he is part of the church’s member.
I met someone today, which reminds me of my past. Ok Upon waiting for our presentation, I’m standing at the front talking to my friend, I sensed someone looking at me, it was the usher and this person looks familiar. And yes its Daniel, I double checked with his name tag and it stated Daniel Lee, ok I’m right. I smiled to him and he smiled back. Well I guess he stills remember me, we attended the same tuition, I was Pri 1 and he was Pri 6, he used to stay beside my block before I shifted. It was nice seeing him and after so many years we get to see each other again at a particular place. I hope somedays we will meet again.
On my way back on the bus, there were this group of guys sitting one row at the back and I was sitting right in front of them. I bet they think I’m Malay or whatsoever race which doesn’t understand Chinese. I listened to their dirty conversations (in Chinese) of what they do with their girlfriends and stories of their friends. It was so turned off and OMG lah! Until I took out my book which has both Chinese and English translation, think they were shocked and start denying of what they said among themselves. I wanted to laugh but I control myself. Anyway, I have no comments on people’s life; because is how they want their life to be and just respect for who they are.

I’m in a dilemma right now. There are a few more options opening to me but I do not know which path to take. There is so many “WHAT IF” question running in my mind whether I should take this or NOT take this route. Or shall I take THAT but I do not know THAT way I’m going will be an ideal way. I’m clueless.
Well think about it.
Today’s function was happening. It was silk air dinner & dance; I was expecting it to be very formal because they are flight steward/stewardess and you will have a mindset that they have good image present themselves elegantly. But it was faraway from what I expected, they drink a lot and the way they behave like a bit aunty. They kept taking pictures like there is no tomorrow, when they cheer they hit their forks and spoons with it. Kinda funny through. Well, this tells that we are human and everyone is equal. No matter where you are or of any occupations.
Its running late, I need to turn now.

Oh MAN I still feel worn-out and drained after working till late midnight at 0130 yesterday. The reason was no one was willing to stay back/ or I should say no one could stay due to other commitment on the next day, so to be fair to everyone, everyone was told to stay till 0130. I think Joseph is happy! Because he has companies with him. But sometimes I feel that he need to spare a through for others. Our priority is still schooling, so if all of us happen to be JC students, even through it is orientation but still we try not to skip. I don’t like the way he discourage people to go school coz its just orientation. Education is everything. But other than this he is alright especially his sense of humor. Anyway looking at the bright side, I earned extra 12bucks.
