My very first day of work at my dad's company.
It has been a really great eye opener for me
To see how the company operates and to be able to understand what's the company all about.
The funny thing about working under my dad is that i don't know what time to knock off lol
cause i have to wait for him to leave together so i guess i have to work till much later than my fellow colleagues :(
My job, i must say is pretty challenging .... a translator.. lol
haha judging on how long i have not 'touch' chinese, i had a pretty tough time at the beginning but still i manage to complete my work ! :) proud of myself! haha
haha wah MIA for exactly 2 months lol haha so sorry guys! :)
hope you guys will still be able to come view my blog although it has been collecting spider webs for so long haha
I'm now in Guangzhou! My new home with my parents!
Home sweet home!
I've been waiting for this day ever since last Sept .finally i can be back home with my family :)
Last 2 months had been crazy....
I was busy with exams and busy looking for a place to stay as i will be moving out of residence after summer...
So if anyone wants to come canada can come to my place to stay! haha
But sadly I still cannot find the right place.... Lets hope i can find the right place soon
Well the stress I experienced from exam made me ate so much that i have gained so much weight ever since!
I look so chubby now!!! oh no!!! :( I don't even know how to start dieting lol
Haha i hope no one will say they cant recognize me when i get back haha
Anyone my new home is pretty much like my home in singapore.. starting to get used to it :)
But after all i still really like guangzhou .. too polluted lol
and plus its so hot here haha well i guess i am too used to the cold in canada
The only thing i like about guangzhou is Shopping and food !
haha the stuff here are really cheap haha and they have some many fake stuff haha
look so real!!!
haha anyway in another month i will be back in Singapore! :D
I hope my friends will be free to meet up with me...
This time i will be back for 3 weeks! so happy! :D
He yin tian shi must be free to meet me okie? :)

My new york trip!!!!! omg spent so much but i had so much fun!!!!!!!!
It was a really cheap vacation.. we spend only around CDN 175 for transportation and accomdation( 5 star hotel!!!)
we went Times square, Wax museum, SoHo, Fifth avenue and not forgetting woodbury outlet mall!!!
( Times square! so pretty)
( i saw Brad Pitt!!!)

Thursday, January 22, 2009
Will i be ok? I may seem all right to others after what has happened but honestly i don't if i am actually really ok...
I don really wanna be ok.... I just want to be alone....
Well, I guess only time will tell whether i will be ok....
I knew everything will fall into pieces but I don't know why when faced with the real truth i just can't hold back my tears....
Reality is always hurtful... All of sudden... I feel as if I have only myself in this world...
Will i really be ok? I really hope so....

Do you know how I feel now?
Do you know what you are doing?
Saturday, January 17, 2009
I love you..
I miss you...
But why do I feel the distance...
This saddens me...
It seems like I don't know what you are thinking anymore...
I want to close the gap...
but whenever i try.. I find myself annoying.. why?
Am i doing anything wrong.. or too much?
All i want is for everything to be back to normal...
I know its hard.. but i am trying my very best to do it
Without your support... things can never be back to normal....
Now... I'm afraid to think of the future.....
Afraid to lose you...
What if i decided on that? what would have happened?
These thoughts always appear in my mind... but i guess i will never have an answer to them
What's gone is gone....
I know what i want but i guess i don't have the courage to face the truth....
or maybe things might be better when left the way they are now...
maybe .. maybe....

Hey there! happy new year to everyone!!!!!
Another year past by us once again.... gone is 2008 and here we welcome 2009
During the countdown to 2009 yesterday, My mind was overwhelmed with mixed feelings
feeling happy and excited towards the new year and at the same time feeling sad that we all have to say goodbye to 2008
2008 has been a really special year for me.. really special one.. during this special year i went through alot of different experience in which each one of them made me stronger each time
2008 is the year in which i officially bid goodbye to my studies in s'pore and is the year that i had longed for
~I finished my a level in year 2008 and i was able to enjoy almost a year of holidays after 2 years o fhard work in jc!! :)
I must say its one of the best holidays i ever had... one year of holidays might seem long but to me it just seems that everything just went by so quickly
~I received my a level results.. which was good and bad.... so much so that i was so shocked that i didnt know to cry or not over my results but overall i was really happy with my results and this exam is one that i felt the most sense of satisfaction ! :)
~One of my best experience of the year was being part of a singing class! :) I have always wanted to learn singing and i'm glad i made the decision to go for it . During my time in the singing class, i not only learnt many useful ways to improve my singing, i also managed to gain a really wonderful group of friends.. heyintianshi :) without them this blog would not even exist lol I wanna say thank you for being such great friends and thank you so much for the things you guys did for me before i left... Meeting heyintianshis have made my passion for singing even stronger :)
~The year in which i officially started working! haha my very first job was an admin job!
I must say it was a really relaxing job but at the same time boring! haha but i manage to experience what it was like working in the real world... scandals... gossips... betrayals...bootlickings
well, not everything was bad at least i managed to know a really nice friend from the company! :)
~Its the first year i get to travel alone with my best friends! to taiwan! it was soooo fun that i really wished i could go back to taiwan with my friends again! :)
~ After Taiwan, I came back to spore to find myself another job...Never did i expect myself to find myself 3 part time jobs... Eventually, i found myself struggling between them
I didnt regret taking all 3 of them as each one of them gave me different experiences
Bridal Veil... working as a boutique asst was one of the toughest job ever.. trust me... My boss always had high expectations for boutique asst and everything has to be done perfectly.
Nevertheless, I began to have higher expectations for myself and it always made me feel great whenever i achieved somethings i would never had achieved in the old me
Stage... Working as a retail asst is one of the most slack retail job ever... I spend most of my time reading magazines in there but haha I must say it feels kinda cool to be working in 'xiao zhu's' shop lol
Tuition teacher...I never i could teach until this job! haha but finally know that its not easy being a teacher especially during the times you just feel frustrated over why the student still don't understand something and yet you can't express it :( but yeah its okie I became good friends with my student :)
~The year in which i have decided to study in Toronto... It was one of the hardest decision i have ever made.. It was hard as I knew if i chose to study in Toronto I will not be able to see my friends often and the fact that i have to leave my family and my dear.... I've decide to study in Toronto because i wanted to have an experience of studying overseas, feel how its like to live in Canada and to be able to see my relatives...
I still remember the day I left spore..... it just felt that i just felt s'pore yesterday
Being together for 4 years and to be separated all of a sudden was hard for not only you but for me too.... I'm sorry i made the decision dear but i really hope we can go through this stage together.. Thank you for staying strong and still being by my side :)
~ Being independent is never easy.... My first time being away from everyone of my family was indeed hard.... i have take care of everything myself and i have no one beside me for me to share my feelings... but at the same time i learnt to become stronger :)
Well really too many things happen in 2008 for me :)
My new year resolution for 2009 will be to stay strong and happy and to be brave in pursuing whatever i wanna achieve and lastly eat lesser :P
Have a wonderful year darlings! :)
love,
Tiffy

Hey people!!!!!! Merry xmas!!!!!!!!!
how was everyone's xmas? i hope it was a great one for everyone! :)
sorry i didn't update so long cause i was so busy everyday!
I am really happy to be able to finally see my brother after so many months! i really miss him alot! Though my brother didnt express his emotions i could tell that my brother was feeling happy seeing me too! ^_^ The next day, we decided to go catch movie and.... in the end, we watched 3 movies!!! yes man, the day the Earth stood still and role models!
The best thing is we didnt have to pay for the last 2 movies lol somehow we could go around watching movies cause no one was checking our tickets! haha we spent almost 9 hours at the cinema!
My xmas was a great one! I finally had my first white xmas!!!!!! I had dinner at home with my relatives.. although a simple one but i felt really happy!!! and finally present time came!!! We all felt really excited opening our presents and i got an ipod dock from my brother! so happy! and i got a pair of really nice purple leggings from american apparel from my cousins! :)
I was really glad everyone like the presents i gave them! :) but i just felt kinda sad somehow as its the first time my parents werent here to celebrate xmas with me and my brother :(
lets hope they can celebrate xmas with us next year! :)
On xmas day, My whole family including my relatives and cousins , We all went to my aunt's restaurant for a family lunch gathering! 27 people altogether! we had so much fun ! eating talking and just taking photos! :) how i wish my parents were here! then the gathering would really be complete!!!! :)

Some people are just so fortunate... so lucky.....
and it really makes me think...
Why can't i be as lucky as those people...
why do they get to have those chances ?
while why some people just don't get those chances no matter how hard they try.. no matter how much they spend...
I have no answer to all those questions...
The fact that i have no answer to those questions made me less daring to dream my dreams or rather made me less discouraged to go reach and try hard for my dreams.....
In fact, i think i never really tried reaching for my dream
My dream.. is to be a singer....
In my heart... I really want to....
but in reality i know its just so hard to become one... or should i say impossible....
The chances of me becoming a singer is so slim
Some times i really wanna give up that dream of mine cause i just feel sad whenever i have to face reality...
I tried... i just cant.... what can i really do?
I never really understand why some people without trying hard gets to fulfill their dream...
while some people no matter how hard they try they just never get a chance to fulfill the dream..
its unfair...
Thinking of this... It makes me not wanna reach for my dreams as somehow i know no matter how hard i try it never comes true....
Reality is Reality
and this saddens me...

omg he was so fabulous! His concert was amazing!!!!
haha i sang along with him throughout the whole concert!
But was kinda sad that I was sitting rather far from the stage :(
My friend who bought cheaper tickets got better seats than mi! :( ( he was sitting at the side while i am sitting directly facing the stage)
But still i enjoyed my time throughout the whole concert! :)
The concert felt so short! I wished it was longer :P haha
okie here are some photos!
Tuesday, December 9, 2008

你的回话凌乱着 在这个时刻
我想起喷泉旁的白鸽 甜蜜散落了
情绪莫名的拉扯 我还爱你呢
而你断断续续唱着歌 假装没事了
时间过了 走了 爱情面临选择
你冷了 倦了 我哭了
离开时的不快乐 你用卡片手写着
有些爱只给到这 真的痛了
怎么了 你累了 说好的幸福呢
我懂了 不说了 爱淡了 梦远了
开心与不开心 一一细数着 你再不舍
那些爱过的感觉 都太深刻 我都还记得
你不等了 说好的幸福呢
我错了 泪干了 放手了 后悔了
只是回忆的音乐盒还旋转着 要怎么停呢
周杰伦 - 说好的幸福呢

I can't stop thinking.. just can't...
The thought of it just upsets me....
Is there a way that i can stop thinking about it?
I guess Time is the best answer.. just like before.. all I need is Time
But the process of trying to forget is just hard....
Can you promise to never mention it again?
I really don't think I can handle such situations again... and I don't ever wanna go through such situations again
I'll try to be happy but deep inside me...I'm hurt... I'm scared... I'm confused...I'm sad
I'll try to be happy but just give me some time...

Having received great results for our midterms, my friends and I decided to celebrate during the weekend! lol haha we went to a party held by asians and we had so much fun as we met many of our friends during the party! and one thing for sure is that we all looked great! lol
of course part of the celebration includes karaoke and shopping! lol haha i have sang karaoke so many times in a row in my life man...On saturday after shopping My friends and I went to karaoke... we laughed so hard as the guys were so funny when they were singing the song .. they totally 'remix' the whole song haha
After that we went for steamboat! so nice to have such warm food in such a cold weather! haha straight after that Me and another group of friends went for karaoke again! wow singing karaoke twice in a day! haha love it! :)
Thank you so much for all your wishes!!! i feel so loved and happy :D

They are exactly what i wanted! so sweet! so happie! :D
haha after dinner, me and my friends went for karaoke! yeah!! haha we had so much fun~ we sang we ate we laughed! haven had so much fun singing ever since i came here! thanks babes!
I still remember before leaving for canada.. i was wondering how was i gonna spend my 19th bday in canada.. will it be a lonely one.. in this whole new environment .. surrounded by a whole new bunch of people.. without my dear friends in spore ( which i miss dearly) and without my family without my dear around me.. will it be enjoyable?
Well it turns out to be a really great bday! but.. i really belief it would be even better if my dear, family and my friends in spore could celebrate my bday with me too :) miss ya guys!
1st bday in canada.. 3 more to come .. looking forward to it but
and wanna say a special thank you to all the heyintianshi for the bday wishes!!! i'm so happie to see them !!! and a special thank you to peggy yj and lena for the wonderful blog post on my bday! special thank you to my dear too for the lovely present!!!! thank you i miss you guys sooooo much!!!!

tiffy!
Finally!!! i'm done with my mid terms! and i manage to get reasonable marks wahaha so i felt that all my hard work has paid work! happy! haha so after my mid terms i was just having fun all the way till today! wahah so nice!! :)
The day after our tests, me and my friends went shopping!!!! haha we couldn't control! we just had to relief our stress by shopping lol! but i shall try practicing self control!
After shopping, my friends and i went to a halloween party! haha i didnt dress up as anything cause it was too last min but yeah we still had so much fun! :D
i know i grow fatter le! but don laugh at mi! haha not my fault lor!its so cold here ! must eat more to keep myself warm haha! don worry i shall slim down before i go back spore haha lol
On the actual day of halloween, we went to wonderland theme park in toronto for Fearfest!( this one is so much more bigger and more fun than the previous theme park i went!) In the theme park, its decorated for like halloween .. super scary and scary and there is like 'ghosts' and 'monsters' walking around the park to scare ppl! yeah and i got scare by a couple and we went into haunted houses! haha super scary ! i screamed so much! we also manage to go onto a couple of rides! haha yeah it was scary! but fun! i'm gonna go back next year! lol!
omg... this week has been a rather stressful week... Having 2 of my worst subject tests on the same day is so depressing.... and the 2 of them is french and econs...
I have to juggle between this two subjects during the past two days.... and i have been studying so much such that i felt as if i am back to my JC days in which i really hate it... :(
I thought University life is supposed to be enjoyable but it turns out it isn't enjoyable at all... its actually getting worst than JC life.. People here study sooooo much.. they study till 3 am everyday!!! can you belief it.. i'm gonna die if i do that everyday man :(
The people study so much so that they are giving so much stress! It feels like you're gonna lose out if you just relax... :( oh god... y cant everyone just relax!!!
and i actually plan to come to canada cause i felt that spore is way to stressful for me but looking at the situation i am in now it may seems that my thinking was wrong.
I just came back from my econs test.. feeling super depressed cause i lost 10 marks!! its over a 100.... i know you guys will say its ok what.. ya its ok provided i can get the rest of the 90% correct but in actual fact i cant guarantee that i can get all of them correct :( and plus the fact that i am a first year student taking second year econs... how to compete with the second years? :(
I had my french oral test.. omg i studied so hard so much so that i almost was speaking french in my dreams! but unfortunately i couldn't understand what the french prof was saying during dictation!!!
omg today is just so depressing.. my first two test for university turns out to be so bad :(
how am i gonna survive ?
wahaha sorry for complaining so much but i felt so much better after doing so haha
well, one good thing for the week is that i got into a commerce marketing association committee ! was so happy cause they chose only 5 ppl out of 15 ppl interviewed . oh well i'm glad i joined a useful club for my first year :)
I went for my first part time shift last thursday at GAP hmm it was rather boring cause we had to pack the stocks so nothing special.... but ever since then nobody called me back for work! omg did i do something wrong? haha well i was thinking maybe its due to the fact that the canada economy is bad so GAP need to cut labour costs! wahaha.. but i guess i will go pester the manger for more shifts after my test period :)
omg i really cant wait for my test period to be over!!! which is gonna be next week .... Halloween !!! yeah its gonna be my first time celebrating Halloween so i hope its gonna be so much fun!!! and next week i'm gonna turn 19!!! legal age! (here :P) haha cant wait!!!! I didnt manage my celebrate my 18th birthday so i really hope this birthday will be a good one :D
anyway i just hope everyone out there is going well!! jia you !!! jia you!!! :D
love,
tiffy
GAP! yes Gap haha I'm gonna work part time at Gap
yeah i know you guys will think .. you have the time to work?
yeah i do.... you guys should see my timetable.. basically i mostly have lessons on mon and wed only, the rest of the week i am pretty free! :D
and my pay as normal is CDN$8.75 per hour but there will be tax deduction :( but still after tax deduction the basic pay here is still higher than the pay in S'pore.
Besides that, I get to enjoy 50 % off all their items! 50%! thats a lot... but i am only limited to buying 6 merchandise from the store.
omg i think i will start spending alot on Gap haha oh well its cheap anyways so nvm haha
My first day of work was on last thurs from 1pm to 5pm oh well not exactly work we had to go attend training and the best part is that we get paid for going to the training wahaha!
The training was rather boring i must say almost fell asleep.
but at around 4 , all of a sudden there was a fire alarm! so everyone had to evacuate the building.
soon, we found out that it wasn't exactly fire its just some machine in the building overworked thus causing smoke
so in in the end during that last 1 hour we were slacking around doing nothing haha!
On my second day of work which was friday from 5.30 pm to 9.30pm, it was more interesting as it was more of a hands on training..
I actually felt that i learnt alot .. learn about how a big retail company like Gap works and what are their ways in providing good customer service
The most interesting part is the exchange policy in which the customer is able to return the merchandise to the store within 90 days! 90 days! mind you s'pore only one week lor! and the shocking part is that in the past GAP exchange and refund policy has no deadline.. which means you can return the merchandise to the store at any time you are not satisfy with it.. even after 2 yrs!
but of course must have valid reason la! haha but now they don't do it anymore
haha And the best part is the price adjustment... for e.g if you buy this shirt today and tm the shirt goes on sale you can actually bring the shirt back and get the price difference back!
Thats so good!!!!
actually during my first 2 days in Gap i think the people there are rather friendly so i really hope i will enjoy my time working there!
Oh and i finally bought tix to Jay Chou concert in Toronto on Dec 18!!!!! I am so happie!!! i can finally go watch his concert!!!! :D
love,
tiffy
haha that phrase is meant for Abercrombie! haha i went for their group job interview yesterday at Abercrombie and i was told that we will be informed whether we will be hired by end of today so.....
its official i'm not hired :( well perharps i wasn't good looking or outgoing enough for them ( apparently thats what they are looking for)
well i really wanna work there though cause firstly, it has a rather nice environment and secondly which is the most important one wahaha is that employees get 50% on all their merchandise~!!! 50%!! is alot for abercrombie judging on how one T-shirt cost around CDN 50 and a jacket cost like CDN 200
haha whatever!!! i'll just go try other stores then :) i actually applied to many though... guess gap... French connection... puma... sephora(cosmetics store)... Le chateau... Jacob
lets just hope I'll get in at least one !!! gonna go for gap interview on next tues! wish me good luck!! :D oh and you know what the basic pay here is CDN $8.75 per hour!!! which is around S$11.60! now u see why i am desperately looking for part time! haha
This week has been a rather boring week until thurs in which i went to party with friends! we had so much fun and we even had a cup noodle party after the party! haha it was so good!!!
As i haven't been studying much for the past few days and have been shopping too much for the past few weeks, i felt super guilty so i decided to stay home to study for the whole weekend! haha what a good girl yeah!
I am so looking forward to next weekend in which is gonna be a long weekend for us here all thanks to thanksgiving and me and my friends are planning to go karaoke ice skating shopping and party! well looks like uni life is not that boring after all!
i just wanna say i miss you guys and hope you guys are having fun too! to those having a levels and o levels i wanna say jia you! jia you! jia you! and to those in uni and working hang on there! and to my baby cheer up!!(P.S pig!... i guess you know what i mean! haha)

Hey angels! so sorry for not updating for such a long time!
but no worries everything is okie!!!
well these few weeks of school, i have been busy with finding second hand books online... finding my way to classes.... joining clubs... hanging out with frens... doing assignments... and of course some shopping!haha
well.... my readings have been pilling up ever since day one... but i feel bad cause i havent been doing any reading at all... all i did was like math and french..
I did so many french assignments until i almost went crazy.. lets hope the assignments will do good to my french! :P
This picture is taken during our gown-tearing ceremony!
We had a gown tearing ceremony earlier this week... We wore our gowns ( i got it for CDN$105! super ex!) to dinner and they will tear the sleeves of your gown.. sort of like officially admitting you into the college... a tradition they do every year... I shall upload clearer pics of me wearing that gown soon! haha but i look super short in that gown!
(covocation hall...the place where i have my management lectures.. super big and its nice!)
Besides buying books, another thing we have to do when classes start is to join clubs!
As i have always wanted to join an accapella group, i went for their audition on monday even though i know the chances of getting in are slim( you know how westerners have such strong vocal power). Well, i didn't take good care of my throat so end up i went to the audition singing breakaway by Kelly Clarkson with a shaky voice. I know i should have changed the song since my voice wasn't in tip top condition but i couldn't find any nicer ones so i just went along with it. In the end, as i expected, i didn't get in. My chances were really really slim... out of 80 + people they auditioned.. they only chose 8 girls. :( I was super sad that day! Lao shi!!! wo dui bu qi ni!!! :( I promise i will practise harder!
Another unlucky thing is when i wanted to look for an alternative to accapella... which is jazz choir.. i found out that the auditions for jazz choir were over already :( to bad i guess i have gotta try again next year
well guess what? in the end i decided to join taekwando! haha I know its unbelievable... mi? learning taekwando.. i think it will be even more unbelievable if i got a black belt...
haha but i am definitely gonna try getting black belt !
of course besides going for lessons.. going for clubs.... i went out of uni to get good food in downtown! haha look at the delicious spicy volcano roll above! They are so delicious... I ate them at a korean restaurant
oh and by the way the two sushi rolls are the same but they are taken on different days!
haha which means i went to that same restaurant for 2 consecutive days
oh but to be specific i went there 3 consecutive days
i brought my mum there on the 3rd
the kimchi soup there is good :D
I am so looking forward to going out for meals ! I can't stand my school food :P
love,
tiffy
