Have moved on to another company since the last one posted. Lately, I'm getting reminders here and there that I need to start blogging again. </span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">Here am I. Trying to blog again. Which caught me wondering? Coming from the advertising background, we always talk about copywriting skills. Should there also be an art of blogging? What kind of skills you need to blog? How to blog to move people? How do to add personality to your blog? Blog for what? I started blogging as a personal diary. I never expect people to evaluate my writing skills or the stuff I write about. Blogging has soon become a tool of communication for most of us today. If I need to find out what's the latest happenings with my friends, I'll check their blog. Blog has become more than just a personal diary. More like a book, a movie or a video projecting the stories and scenes from our lives. </span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">Last year, I have posted on this blog asking whether if blogging is form of privacy or a public show-tell. I realised blog is never a private diary. Whether you like it or not, once posted, you are showing/telling it to the whole world. I know for a fact that not many of my friends read my blog due to my frequency of posting an entry but I realised occasionally there will one stranger or two who reads my blog and made some comments. Seeing this, I have a sudden urge to blog on and on...let's hope this time I stick to it and let the old habits die hard.</span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:verdana;font-size:13px;"><br /></span></div></div>w y n i e ^http://www.blogger.com/profile/09878968356180635265noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907082.post-5753585073503225302007-01-07T17:15:00.000-08:002007-04-09T21:55:52.418-07:00Springing into the new year!<span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;">Hello hello...it's been months since my last post.

A week before this, I got a notification from Friendster that she has started a blog. Curious on how she was doing and a little 'kepoh', I went to check out her blog.<br /><br />In her blog was the usual stuff on her normal daily stuff, plus...an *interesting (wink, wink)* incident on her dating life. So, while catching up on the normal stuff (work, work and work), I casually mention that I've been reading her blog (so that she don't have to beat around the bush to get to her lovelife stuff). Her reaction was one that I have not expected.<br /><br />She literally said "You've read it!!! No one was supposed to read it! I'm so embarrassed"......<br /><br />I was speechless for a moment and then I asked....<br /><br />"Why write a blog when you don't want anyone to read it?"<br /><br />Then she go on explaining that she was bored and so she posted the incident on the blog. She didn't expect anyone would have gotten to read it. :S<br /><br />Her reaction got me thinking...when I first started my blog, the purpose was not to all show-and-tell to the whole world. (Cos I was literally bitching bout my co-worker then :P).<br /><br />Eventually, I told Kim bout my blog, who responded "You're bitching bout her, better not let anyone know you have this blog". And Kim, as I know, have several blogs, in which some she did not reveal to me or anyone in our group of friends.<br /><br />So, is blog a form of privacy? Or a form of public show & tell?</span>w y n i e ^http://www.blogger.com/profile/09878968356180635265noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907082.post-1153048035890996382006-07-16T03:47:00.000-07:002007-04-09T21:57:25.416-07:00Lazy, Hazy, Crazy Sunday Afternoon...<span style="font-family:verdana;"><span style="font-size:85%;">It's a lazy hazy Sunday afternoon. I've been stuck in front of the PC for more than 2 hours. This morning, I woke up directionless, aimless, clueless wandering what went wrong last night.</span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">It should have been a very exciting weekend for me, but it took one wrong turn. I've should have known better not to expect or hope for anything. People said, "once bitten twice shy." But I wasn't...it was more like twice bitten but still so <em>thick-skin.</em></span><br /><em><span style="font-size:85%;"></span></em><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">What was I thinking?! I was so close to craziness when I left the place yesterday, a subtle sense of feelings that I have not felt in a while now...yes, it's been a while. </span><span style="font-size:85%;">While I welcomed the feeling, I wish it never came and I would to never feel it again. Feeling it makes me feel like I'm back in my college days. Once, I spent days, months, years mulling over this hope and craziness. I would have thought the experience have taught me well, but here I am today...starting over it again.</span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">How can one feel this? How can this feeling be so wrong? Why did I let this happen again? Once again...I am close to craziness again...</span></span>w y n i e ^http://www.blogger.com/profile/09878968356180635265noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907082.post-1152985365687198292006-07-15T10:37:00.000-07:002007-04-09T21:57:42.844-07:00Going back to the start?<span style="font-family:verdana;"><span style="font-size:85%;">I just had to post this up...this song precisely explains my feelings at the moment.

There wasn't anything major to do...such a slow month...I hope things better pick up soon. I rather be packed with work than sit around doing nothing.<br /><br />The whole work issue has put me in a sombre mood. With nothing much to do and 2 office buddies leaving the company next week doesn't help to boost up the morale in this office at all. So much negavity and yet I still need to hang on...I just want to scream out loud to the management..."SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING!!"<br /><br />To add salt to wound, my other* phone died on me. My 'other' phone was a clam-shell phone which was half-cracked ages ago. On Monday night, I was chatting with a friend when I suddenly dropped the phone. The whole phone went half in separate ways. I thought it could have died there and then, but to my suprise it was still working as the cable was still attached.<br /><br />Being a happy owner of the other phone that could live that long, I proudly it show off to my office buddies the next day. As I was doing the demo of the nokia6260-like (by twisting the whole screen panel to face the opposite direction) with my other phone, the screen cable tore!! And there goes the screen...by night time, the sound was gone too!<br /><br />So now, I officially declare that my other phone dead. Before I look for a predecessor, I think I'm gonna give it a proper burial. Afterall, it has been a good phone.<br /><br />Ciao phone...!~<br /><br /></span>w y n i e ^http://www.blogger.com/profile/09878968356180635265noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907082.post-1152613465058582462006-07-11T03:11:00.000-07:002007-04-09T21:58:37.995-07:00Dead blog...back in action!<span style="font-family:verdana;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Haven't been blogging for a year now...finally it just took a simple question* from a friend to remind me of my dead blog.

I have changed job, got a promotion, Sue finally came back from Japan, Kim just went to UK and found a new friendship with a faraway friend. Nothing much have changed really. </span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">When I look back at my post, I found myself a bore...ranting about drama stories and endings.

I have watched the story evolved from episode 1, psyching myself to be within the story and up to the end of the series, I did not get to see a happy ending. I felt sad, I felt dissatisfied!!! Since last night till this morning, I'm still dwelling on the fact that the guy and girl did not live happily ever after. Still dwelling on why didn't god (or in this case, the director) did not let him live on to be with his beloved, why did he have to die?!<br /><br />Everytime when there's no happy ending, I have the sudden strong urge to "get into" the story and set things right. I wonder if anyone shared the same feeling as I do. I want everybody to be happy in the end. To have a happy ending.<br /><br />This kinda put me in a sombre mood today, especially with the cloudy, gloomy weather today. Maybe, I should just avoid stories with no happy ending. I think directors or producers should put a warning before anyone watches their show. Maybe it should read something like below:<br /><br />WARNING: This story contains elements of sad-story endings. People with fragile heart and tear-prone are not recommend to proceed in viewing the show.<br /><br />Well, anyone?</span>w y n i e ^http://www.blogger.com/profile/09878968356180635265noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907082.post-1105633038297844662005-01-13T07:42:00.000-08:002007-04-09T21:59:43.024-07:00To honestly loved and be loved....and nothing more?<span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;">It's been a while since I've blogged. Got the blog's writer's block or just an excuse to make myself feel better.<br /><br />Been watching a new drama on TV, and it makes me ponder on this issue. Is it really enough to just honestly loved someone, be loved and not ask for anything more?<br /><br />Ms. B 'nui chu kok'* and Mr.S 'nam chu kok'** in the drama have sparked off during their vacation off work. And due to a minor misunderstanding, both decide not to pursue further in the relationship.<br /><br />Much later in the drama, Ms.B and Mr.S finally found the truth of the misunderstanding and what has been keeping them apart. But alas, it was too late, Ms.B have already taken a pledge to a new life with another man.<br /><br />B: You knew the truth, why didn't you tell me?<br />S: I thought you were'n't a serious person in relationship. I thought you were....(blah, blah,blah)<br />B: Why this have to happen now? Why?!<br />S: It's too late, we have to be rationale. You are another man's wife.<br />B: I just need to know. If you knew the truth, would you have pursued to love me?<br />S: Definitely...<br />B: Which means the time we had together, the feeling was real. We have honestly loved each other. Knowing this, would be enough isn't it.<br />S: (Nods...)<br /><br />Conclusion: Ms.B went back to her hubby and both S & B hold on to the memory that they had honestly loved each other. And that is enough.<br /><br />I wonder if this only happens in movie. Given in real life, things will not be as simple. How many of us would really give an honest heart into the relationship?<br /><br />I'm looking for the answer still...<br /><br /><em>*nui chu kok: main actress</em><br /><em>**nam chu kok: main actor</em><br /><em></em><br /><em>Love don't need a reason, it needs honesty.</em> </span>w y n i e ^http://www.blogger.com/profile/09878968356180635265noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907082.post-1099967721275414532004-11-07T22:11:00.000-08:002007-04-09T22:00:01.696-07:00Good things don't come easy...<span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;">Okie, I'm late. I was supposed to post up the outcome from my Friday meeting but sorry, I haven't got the time to do so.<br /><br />Well, we have good news and bad news. The good news is that we have won the account! But the bad news is that we have to get everything done by the first week of December!!!! Minus the holidays, our team have less than 3 weeks to prepare everything from scratch. Argghhhh!!!<br /><br />Oh well...I guess good things don't come easy.<br /><br />Anyway, I manage to free my mind from the job over the weekend. On Friday was a really wet night with a huge and massive jam all around town. Was caught in a pretty bad jam on the way back from Putrajaya. By the time we reach the office, it was already way pass dinner time. I was so hungry I didn't even bother to go anywhere that night. Just head home straight for a nice warm shower and dinner.<br /><br />On Saturday, I head down to Alexis Ampang to catch Mia in action again! This time round, she's with The Unusual Suspect. They were playing the swing jazz, which I love very much. I ordered a Bellini, which was a mixture of champagne and peach. A refeshing drink with a tinge of the sweet peach flavour. Kim and the Mia fan club gang was there with an additional of a new couple (friends of splatspit).<br /><br />Conculsion: A good night out with a fabulous music, nice drinks and good companies. Definitely, will go for a second round of this! </span>w y n i e ^http://www.blogger.com/profile/09878968356180635265noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907082.post-1099633484410227742004-11-05T13:44:00.000-08:002006-07-11T03:31:21.386-07:00TGIF!!<span style="font-size:85%;">...finally Friday has arrived!!<br /><br />It's been a busy week for me, packed with work and meetings since Tuesday.<br /><br />Went through a 2 hour-meeting to present a whole year brand plans for one of my clients yesterday. My colleague and I have put on our thinking caps and squeezed our brain juices dry for the ideas. By the time, we finished the proposal, we're mentally exhausted. Thank god the clients was impressed by our ideas and effort put into it. :D<br /><br />Going off to Putrajaya for another meeting later. Hopefully, our team can close the deal on this job. An inside news was saying that 90% chances are this job would be ours. (Hoping for that big-fat bonus from this one!)<br /><br />Okie...lunch time. Will write more later after the meeting. Hopefully, it'll be a good news!<br /><br />Ciaos! </span>w y n i e ^http://www.blogger.com/profile/09878968356180635265noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907082.post-1099632749793332142004-11-04T21:32:00.000-08:002006-07-11T03:31:43.456-07:00<a title="HaloScan Commenting and Trackback" href="http://www.haloscan.com/"><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">Haloscan</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"> commenting and trackback have been added to this blog.</span>w y n i e ^http://www.blogger.com/profile/09878968356180635265noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907082.post-1099415171453403322004-11-02T14:45:00.000-08:002007-04-09T22:00:23.425-07:00Long, chaotic & hazy weekend...<span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;">Just came back from a long weekend...feeling very lazy today but I've got too much to do.<br /><br />Went to watch 'The Terminal' with Kim and JY on Saturday. If you curious to know how it feels like to belong nowhere and stranded, this is the movie to watch. Highly recommended.<br /><br />The rest of the weekend was spent with my parents at the Chinese temple for their annual celebrations. It was a total chaos, noise and haze from the abundance of burning incense. Ever see a number of people in getting into a trance, whereby "the gods will borrow their bodies" to perform the religious rituals? For a first-timer, it would have been a scary experience. Although I have been exposed to these things since I'm little (thanks to my mom's religious influence), I must admit to say that I was a little petrified to see so many people going into a trance at the same time. What I've usually seen is one person only.<br /><br />On the first day, we went on a religious parade (or perarakan agama, as it says in the city council permit)together with "the gods". In the parade, we as the disciples will carry joss sticks, flowers and 'gold paper' while "the gods" went to temples and people's residence along the way to bless them with peace and harmony. All in all, by the end of the parade, I've walked almost 5-6 kilometres (I wasn't counting, but how to count in the first place?). By the time I sat down, my legs feel like they are breaking...I was so tired my whole body feel so numb.<br /><br />On the second day, things mellow down a little. It rained the whole day. At night, we have to cross the "ping onn kiu" (the peace & harmony bridge) which was said to bring good blessings and chased away the bad lucks. The same ritual as the 1st day, we each have to hold a joss sticks and the 'gold paper' (minus the flowers as the bridge was already decorated with flowers) when we crossed the bridge. The Goddess of Mercy (Kuan yin) gave me her blessing in the "borrowed" body of a young lady. I felt peaceful and believe me...I actually felt her presence there.<br /><br />Today, it's the celebration dinner. Got to leave work early for it. Shit, client just called...need to drive down to Putrajaya again. Too too tired already...sigh!<br /><br /></span>w y n i e ^http://www.blogger.com/profile/09878968356180635265noreply@blogger.com0
