Updates...

Hey ya! Gosh, it sure feels like ages since the last post! Alot had been going on and I am actually blogging right from the computer in the marketing office here in Methodist College! XD Funny thing that I was the first one to reach this morning and normally, either one of my superiors would have already be in the office before me and I was wondering if...I wasn't notified about something that I should have known?! O.o Hope not but maybe I shall try to sniff out the reason why my bosses are late! Sounds like a typical office's 'gossip mafia' xD hahaha

And yes! For your information I am employed to be as an intern back in my home college MCKL to be working with the marketing department. Yea yea...I know what you guys are thinking...It's not a glamorous job, the pay isn't as high as those outside..but hey, what counts is the learning experience and furthermore, I think my pay is rather reasonable and at least I am not underpaid! It wasn't so bad working here after all xD I am still glad that I was given the confidence to counsel some basic stuff to the parents since I was an ex-student =D and the good thing is they could get a perspective of a 'living example' regarding the culture and students' life =D Started working on the 18th and till date, I've been working at MCKL for almost 3 weeks.

So far it has been rather eventful for these 2 weeks, Attended Mei Sann's wedding on Saturday and celebrated Jian Fung's and my brother's birthday on the Saturday as well. Now that I'm already earning my own money, instead of thinking over and over again, I felt that I can actually afford to make quick decisions while buying or having to pay for something and THAT IS A BLOODY GOOD FEELING =P But of course, big spending is a no-no for me. In fact I just planned to purchase whatever necessary stuff that I've been wanting for a long time and maybe treat myself to something more than the usual. Not forgetting to 'belanja' my family to a nice and fancy meal hehe.

The outing with the Behs and Harry was really good. Went Italian for lunch and English for tea xD oh and Mei Sann, CONGRATULATIONS! =D she seemed so tired on that day..well I guess this is kinda typical for every bride on their once-in-a-lifetime moment huh?

My English is SERIOUSLY DETERIORATING....

Alright, that's all for now, will update more on my life later on!

Adios!

Still waiting to compose my 100th poem.

At the same time thinking to myself how useless can I be and listening to some Mariah

Waiting, thinking, vanishing.

I want to know what life and love is.

Memoirs of An Imperfect Angel

Hey there! I've been so lazy to blog recently...the post-exam mood is alive and kicking! haha Though it didn't went well, (unfortunately =( ... ) But life goes on and all I could hope for is to get at least a Distinction and a Pass for Management...enough said...I do not want this post to sound depressed...we've much to be depressed about, don't we?

Anyways, holiday before working in MCKL has been not too bad so far, I wouldn't say awesome, but it is reasonably okay. Been to Malacca last 2 days and I've finally bought my copy of Mariah Carey's 'Memoirs of An Imperfect Angel' =) catchy huh? Till today, this is actually my favorite album of all after 'The Emancipation of MIMI' and 'Butterfly'. What drawn me to my attention the most is the fact that she took the risk and made this whole album as a 'novel', a memoir, to be precise. Despite the fact that the Billboard and charts are towards fancying singles and individual hits, Carey had indeed taken a big leap in the industry by giving her fans something out of the ordinary and if I'm not mistaken, this is the first album that actually has a flow between all the songs in the particular arrangement and tells a different story of her live. 'Betch gon' know' is first on her album and it opened with:

'Welcome to a day of my life, the Memoirs of an imperfect angel...'
And what's more, the so-called 'sound-the-same' music had appealed to me through and through. Yes, all of it might sound the same, but the elements are actually combination of music styles of past albums. There are pop-chart friendly songs, RnB, soul, ballads and who can forget her 'oh-so-high' vocal acrobatics - the whistle register =D

So far, there are some songs that had really touched my heart, there are songs that had made my friends teary-eyed, and there are songs that had made my friend became more appreciative of her music =D For more information on Carey's album, do visit the blog of another hardcore fan of MC, my friend, Kelvin =)

Without much talking, I just wanna introduce you guys to some of favorite numbers in this album. First up, it'll be Languishing(the interlude) and I want to know what love is. I've put up before, but here is the official music video that captured the simplicity of 'love' =) not her best, but it's worth watching. I'd suggest if you'd listen to Languishing first as these two songs are in a way connected, not just musically but emotionally. Only then you'd be able to get the flow and appreciate the last tune more =)





Angel's cry. No too much of everything =)one of the songs with the best lyrics ever!



H.A.T.U.

Welcome to day of Choon Hui's imperfect journey, a memoir to be shared =D

Life could be hysterical

Hey there peeps! As I've promised (and broke it XD) to post a poem right after my last post, here it is. The tittle might sound a lil' bit off and out of the ordinary cos, well..that's the whole point you see XD it's called 'Hysterical'.

The weather seemed to be having its own 'mood-swings'..well, you can't help it when when we call her 'Mother Earth' =P

So, as hysterical as the tittle sounds, this poem is also a piece to depict the turmoils and crazy storms that invade our lives every now and then. What we could do is just to observe, endure and stand up from the fall. And hey! it's OK when your life got hysterical once in a while =D

(Hysterical)

Water droplets fell,

Almost mist-like.

Showering the outside world,

Came with the wind.

On the ground they fell

Countless broken marbles.

Drops, drops, drops…

Millions they dropped.

The dancing tree,

Seemed delightful,

Hysterical.



Oh and by the way, this is my 99th poem =D
