i cant believe that it's alr the end of march.. soon that is.. time flies uber fast and well, there's really really no room for regrets.. life's funny and things happen when u simply just least expected it..
hold on.. but not too long if it dont matter.. that was kinda random.. but it's true at the same time.. haha.. i'm back to me thinky self again.. oh boy.. went for the medical check up in the morn and then went to collect the photos at 2pm.. headed down to DL after that.. caught the 3.30pm show.. hahah.. so fun! den keith had that shocked look when he saw wanru n me.. LOL. we completed our portion of the thingy.. went to kaypo here n there.. hahaha.. almost everyone ended up teasing ah tan bout the show the previous night.. LOL. they had a gathering at night.. ooh! tristan came! haha.. he's super super cute! keiri too! they are simply so adorable!! =) so wanru n i bus-ed out after chatting for awhile.. it's been great =) it's a total whole new perspective and all.. how shld i put it.. it's sort of wad i kinda look for in life, so to speak.. new things everyday.. look at things happening ard.. sure not everything's pleasant but it just makes me feel that i'm living a life and well, just feels worthwhile.. of course, think ahead. it's always gd to think ahead.. but the thing is that, u never know when "ahead" lasts till.. u never know.. everyday's never a bore now.. tiring yes, but bore just doesnt quite fit in.. laughter constantly heard, wacky things here n there.. and well, just seeing some sides of ppl that's normally not quite seen.. i guess it's very much part of human nature.. no one can really be an everybody person.. it's just not quite there.. persistance or avoidance or wadever else.. it'll always be there.. the imperfectness of humans.. things learnt n taught every single day. life's a lesson.. life's learning that never ever ends.. so i guess the phrase of "huo dao lao xue dao lao" or so call "learning till death" is proven.. lol. one cant help but have to learn till death.. cos there will always be something to learn.. just whether you want to learn or not.. adios!~ DL tmr! =)

wad will things be like 3 yrs down the rd? alrite.. dun even think that far.. wad will things be like nxt yr?? once again and again, uncertainties abound..
today was like a madhouse. almost. mildly unpleasant things happened.. and i think everyone was quite "heated" literally.. for some reason, probably due the overwhelming crowd that appeared frm nowhere, the whole place was extremely extremely hot.. will it ever be a dream come true? it's gone quite far now i'd say.. even though i've been suggested by different individuals a couple of times.. though, there's this uncertainty of meaning.. lol.. o wells, dun think too much.. it's still a 3 yrs away probability. to continue or not? i'm not sure.. it's so hard to see where things are going.. as usual, the occassional surprises that will definitely pop up now and then for a visit.. yay! done with the last part of it alr.. haha.. left with the "manual" part on thurs.. mixed feelings is all i can say.. = it's been wonderful..

it's been raining on n off.. been working everyday..
constantly having to see the ugly side of ppl, sumtimes it gets real hard to put on a smile to face them.. not exactly generalising, but looking at certain adults.. they just seem to have a mind of a 3 yr old.. =.=" for gdness sake.. grow up! in fact, PLEASE act ur age.. ppl can get really really ugly and all.. anyone who expects comfort in the real world, forget it. seriously, conflicts just come n come.. some get along well.. and well, some just dun quite fit in.. some dependable on the culture or so call the environment.. well, gotta learn to adapt. as simple as that. that's a basic survival skill anywhere.. sometimes, certain things that happen for wadever reason and tension still remains after awhile, the reason may very well be quite dumb actually.. tis i dun quite get how ppl think n operate.. =.=" petty? most likely. no particular discrimination against adults.. but honestly.. THINK. that's wad the brain is for.. dun expect the always have ur way all the time.. that's not possible. everyone knows that.. sumtimes, i wish that i can just shout at the guest as if i were another visitor.. things that ppl do are just simply ridiculous.. SIGH. a note to those reading this.. when u go anywhere, 1) open ur eyes to read signs n instructions. 2) when ppl are talking/answering ur qns/giving instructions, LISTEN. 3) no one's job is easy, be considerate. 4) dun think that u have the right to do wadever u want.. 5) be polite all the same.. 6) respect others first if u wanna be respected and treated graciously.. 7) not everyone can do everything that u wish for to be done, be patient and speak to the relevant ppl.. 8) think smart before u do or say anything.. 9) have compassion for whoever/whatever 10) try to speak clearly, ASK if ur not sure.. in the service line, jokes abound.. seriously. we were saying that we could come up with our own joke bk.. dumb things that ppl do, weird things that they say or ask.. too proud to admit that they were in the wrong.. voicing loudly causing great unpleasantness.. we were sharing with each other stuff that happened past n present.. it was super funny!! haha.. all the silly silly things.. any many of which still repeats all the time.. LOL. o wells, that wad u get in the service line~ staff nite tmr! haha.. it's gonna be awesome =) i think i'll laugh until stomach pain.. hahhaa.. cant wait! DL tmr also.. woohoo!~

i'm really thankful for all ur support n encouragements..
though, i really wish to not think bout it actually.. anyways, decided to not stay for LITO.. lol.. 1st shift was cool i suppose.. listened to salihin's sea life talk.. haha.. great way to handle the children.. lol.. they are really adorable as well =) well, things were as usual at UWS.. lesser crowd though.. despite being the sch hols.. o wells, it's better that way.. haha.. just that, there are more LITO and sch grps instead.. which means, there'll be more deafening high pitched screams.. haha.. o wells~ beats the others.. love it when the otters come over.. haha.. got to "play" with them during the 2nd otters' training.. first was 2 guest getting a chance to cue them for the kiss and to feed them as well.. den after that, san san asked me to cue them proper.. and they followed! haha.. they are really really adorable =) when the guests were trying, they either got Princess to "kiss" Twinkle's side or her paws.. managed to cue them correctly.. so sweet they are.. "kissing" mouth to mouth.. =) they are really very gentle creatures.. DL tmr.. aft that, gonna go run! woots!~ most prob with ah tan, not sure if razak running or not.. yes! finally! today den decide one.. haha.. looking forward to tmr.. =)

hmm.. it IS really difficult to put things in words as of direct thoughts or feelings..
i suppose i'm not the only one facing tis.. irony eh? i can write.. but i cant seem to put things straight as it is.. it has been more of this n that than before.. i'm i just looking for more that adds on? or is it considered part n parcel that every single one goes thru? i sumhow feel it's the former.. that's why. i guess i'm really affected by "openess".. i cant really stand it when i'm kept in the dark bout things.. of cos, i know where to draw the line, but well.. it cant really hurt to know rite.. just finished the 6th book of Harry Potter.. towards the last part was the explanation from Dumbledore as to why he din reveal things he shld have to Harry much earlier.. D's reason? He cared too much bout Harry.. not totally referring to tis example wholly.. it just that, sumtimes when one cares too much, it hurts even more.. i guess some ppl would refer tis to fly a kite.. hold on too tight, the string will snap.. too loose, it's not gd either.. indirectly, other factors can arise.. back to being kept in the dark.. sigh.. not really sure how to go about tis.. it's just, in the world out there, it's not only you and you having ppl to protect you.. overdependence and well, constantly being "sheltered".. it kinda gets on my nerves.. selfish as i may sound, living for the future doesnt seem appealing at all.. sure enough, you plan for the future that you can seemingly see come to pass.. but until when will you actually be alive? death reports everyday gets me thinking even more.. i'm not afraid to die.. i'm not. part of me just wants to know tat i've lived a life that well, i'd have no regrets in. time that is well put out among the many commitments and at the same time, to do wad i wish to do and enjoy.. that i'll be happt at least. dun take tis too seriously... as in, word for word.. i'm not able to fully express as i wish i could and well, grey areas therefore arise.. so, jsut take it with a pinch of salt.. nevertheless, it's more or less of wad i wanna say.. or wad i think n feel.. 1st shift tmr.. thinking if i shld stay over for LITO.. shld i?

wont really say that today was gd..
went to tan in the morn before work.. it was a nice time.. rather quiet. watched ppl do filiming.. loads of equipment.. messed up interaction again.. =( sry keith and jumbo.. i'm feeling very dehydrated at the moment.. must the sun today.. it was pure heat. scorching like nobody's business.. got burnt. san san's leaving at the end of tis month.. i'm sad.. she's like the first trainer that i really talked to and one who really talked to me also.. her funny antics that well, just brings the whole mood up.. straightforward and a really nice person =) yep. well, ppl dun stay in places for a whole lifetime.. everyone moves on.
Sunday, March 04, 2007
well, it's really a life long lesson that i'm starting to accept.. which is about not getting too emotionally attached to ppl..
it is hard.. but it's even harder when one gets too emotionally attached.. my expectations of whoever will naturally go up and well, it gets even more disappointing.. why do ppl operate in such odd and well, baffling ways?? i haven been much of a human being to certain ppl in these recent wks.. just been well, living life as it is.. wondering wad's it like not being so "attached", so to speak.. surprisingly, i'm surviving. not saying that these ppl dont matter.. in fact, they mattered more than anyone else.. it's real funny.. not having any much of a proper convo or least say a heart-to-heart, i dun feel much of a think.. or is it that i keep telling myself not to expect.. and well, i really din. of cos i'm glad to hear from them.. but the thing is, i'm not taking it as hard as i used to even if they din.. well, it seems fine by me kinda thing.. okies, once again i'm finding it a tad hard to put wad i really wanna say in words.. i guess it really really hurts a lot when ppl get close.. i'm just referring to friendships.. wad are the right things to do or wad are the right things to say? forgot to set my alarm for tis morn.. i really really dun feel like caring bout it anymore.. that's frm deep down.. no more commitments that well, i feel really tied down and tired with..
wisely's such a "funny" bloke.. HAHA. lol.. he is quite lar.. though sumtimes i really really wanna hit him and well, sumtimes i just do! haha.. mind u, he's like ard 9 or 10 yrs my senior.. lol.. okies, that aint a very very big diff lar..
today was relatively alrite i suppose.. thank yous to san san n michael too! thank them for bringing my punch card over.. maybe i shld just keep it with me everytime.. and thanks to wisely for "entertaining" me.. or rather, using me as his entertainment.. =.=" hahaha.. morn got 2 shark eggs. otters came over.. i'm starting to love Twinkle n Princess more n more =)) tks to wisely for letting me feed them the other day =D set up the sem rm for SMU grp in the morn.. in the end, they only reached like 1/2 hr later.. nevertheless, gd thing dun have to do the sealife talk for them.. hahaha. =x quite ok lar tis grp.. better than TKPS! that's definite man! monica was like.. LOL. never mind. fiona's bf came for his bdae dive.. nice guy =) at least got smile smile haha.. sharifah ate the monster sweet and had blue/green tongue n teeth! hehe.. wonder how she got rid of the colour in such a short time.. tks to nuraini for buying lunch in.. joked with david bout getting struck by lightning.. some umbrella issue.. he always looked so serious/solemn.. BUT, so the oppo.. lol.. bus-ed out with wisely.. yea rite.. mouse fish.. =.=" leading otters for a run.. WADEVER!~ hahhaa.. i'm glad my fighter's eating now.. a bit at least.. mahjong-ed with my bro n cousins till late jsut now.. cos our parents went to the temple.. sense a lil flu coming on.. no sick pls! no sick pls!

so much for sunshine after the rain.. haha.. well, it happened.. only for a short while.. rained frm 2plus onwards.. POURED during the 3.30 show.. =.=" the bottom of the soundbox has become the hiding place for GSOs n trainers..
i really need to work on my guiding n briefing.. SIGH. i felt quite guilty that well, i din really look out for Jumbo today.. blegh. tks to fiona for doing the last briefing.. so gd lar.. another thing was that they kept splitting for interaction even though not enough GSOs to go down for interaction.. =.=" hahaha.. but still, it ended up ok lar.. Pet n Jumbo were gd boys =) got burnt in the morn and rained down in the later part of the day.. hope that i dun get sick.. SWD was seriously sweltering man.. at least i managed to get a tad bit darker.. hehe.. though it aint very significant.. major thing was the filming crew frm india.. apparently the "stars" for wadever they were filming were rather "big".. cos some indians do know who they were.. for us, we were still wondering who's the crew and who's the actor(s)?? haha.. but honestly, u cant tell the diff btw them man.. other than all the chasing after them to make sure that they dun disturb the other guests, i'm sure we GSOs n trainers had a gd time laughing to ourselves.. =x so last min man.. lets see wad tmr holds
Thursday, March 01, 2007
did the air force n navy sent the mail to the wrong person?? lol..
anyway, lived with a blistering headache for the whole of this afternoon till now.. YES. until now.. all thanks to 300 plus screaming kids frm TKPS.. lol.. imagine the damage that kids can do, just with the power of their voices.. hahaha.. but seriously, it was an "eye-rolling" time.. o wells, the only gd thing would be that they are kids.. and not like some ppl who u know that they'll just scream for no gd reason and keep screaming n wanting to touch the rays even though they are afraid.. =.=" well, when kids get excited, u tell them one thing and they obey.. but the next min, they'll just forget everything and start screaming again.. LOL. wad to do.. so so washed out already.. wonder if i can slp tonite and just slp the headache away.. it better.. DL tmr.. hurray! hahaha.. hope that the sun will be out tmr.. dun really fancy wearing that poncho and getting teased by the trainers.. =.=" haha.. wadever~ oh i love my bed~ gotta get new food for my fighter.. fussy boy! |
