For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

towards the end of 2009
It has been ard 2 wks since I got back from Taiwan. Everyone loves holiday (plus travelling) and I m no exception. The Taiwan trip has been a pleasant and memorable one and I cant wait to go for holiday next yr. But according to Dear, next yr's trip has to be a small scale one, meaning cheaper holidays. This is to save up for our wedding + house reno + Europe honeymoon which will be 3 yrs later. Hmm... Hopefully I will go Japan in 2011 maybe? I din plan to go Japan a soon as next yr as well.
I was once told by a colleague that going for holiday together is the best way to tell if u can live with ur bf/gf for the rest of ur life. Because during that period, both of u will have to live together and will be able to see the habits of one another more clearly. Met up wif my sec sch buddies last nite and I was further cfm by sf as she experienced it herself too :) Sidenote for guys: It's absolutely normal to see gals bringing a bag full of skin care products when they go for holiday. Its a daily routine for gals :D
8 more days to 2010! So fast! In a blink of the eye, 2009 is almost coming to the end. Thinking back of what I have accomplished in the yr of 2009, all I could think of is the good time spent in the training school with all my fellow sch mates. And of cos, the memorable times I have spent with Dear. It has always been comforting to know that I have a shoulder to lean on whenever I m upset and stress up. Dear will give me a call everyday even if he reaches home at 8 plus or 9pm after work. Even if he stays in base, he will still give me a call whenever he can. When he is on deployment, he will call me asap when the ship has reached the harbor of another country. I really appreciate that and I will try not to go out at nite when he is sailing just to wait for his call. Certain days at work can be quite taxing. But knowing that I will be meeting Dear later always make me look forward to knocking off :) Next yr, Dear and I will be even busier. Hopefully we will still manage to spend as much time together as possible :)

Feeling Bad
I accidently damaged Mum's new favorite floral cardigan when I was retrieving my jacket just now. It was a knitted cardigan. I think the zip of my jacket got hooked onto the cardigan thus as I remove the jacket from the rack, the thread of the knitted cardigan was being pulled at the same time. I m feeling so bad now. Mum likes that top very very much and it was the last piece when we bought it at F21 that time. Mum din scold me, but I could see from her face that she was quite upset. I also couldnt find it on the online store of F21. I am feeling very sad and bad now.

self-reflection
sometimes its good to take some time off to do some self-reflection. finally finished (sort of) all my assignment and is having a gd long holi before my real work starts in end of dec. thus its a gd time to do reflection and see what I have accomplished since graduation.
As I was reflecting, I realised I am quite contented with my current life. Why m i contented? The following are the reasons:
1) I quite like my job up till this point of time. Hopefully I will continue to like it when I am having the full workload. hee *cross fingers*
2) I have a happy family life. My Dad, Mum, Bro, and Dear.
3) Major event of the year: Dear and I bought a house! So we are doing financial planning for the next three yrs. Cost comes in for renovation, wedding, car (probably), and honeymoon.
4) I get to travel (for holi) at least once a yr.
5) And most imptly, I have someone whom loves me alot and I love alot too! You know who u r :D
Being contented doesnt mean not striving forward. of cos there are things that I wan to accomplish for the next few yrs. For work, I will let nature takes its own course. I hope that I will be able to start my Masters degree 2 yrs later. Hopefully I will still have the motivation to do it by that time. :D
Side note: Now i realise the importance of having a recognised degree. Its always gd to enter a local uni rather than going to private. saves time and saves $$$. :D

memorable times...
was looking at the photos which I took during a trip to korea last yr and I muz say I really miss those times. Its nice travelling with ur best of pals and I would want to go on a holi trip with them (sf and lp) again! Its true tat u get to know ur pals better while travelling toge. Its is also not easy if each person has different habits. But luckily the 3 of us did not have much of a problem with that. We did not have the prob of kicking while slping in bed, snoring, making toilets dirty etc etc, like what I heard from my other frens. what makes the korea trip memorable was the fusing of light bulb in the toilet (in the korea village) when I was showering half way. SF n LP ended up having to shower using torch light! What makes e trip even more memorable was the crazy last min shoping for shoes a few hours before our flight bk to sg. I love those times...
Let's organize a trip toge next yr! (Hopefully lp n sf can join me in the taiwan trip this yr!)

wardrobe mission
yes. I have an upcoming mission for my wardrobe. According to my mum, she is having difficulty finding hangers in my wardrobe to hang my clothes after she has ironed them. She had already bought new hangers for me, but it still seems that its still not enough. Having two wardrobes in my room doesnt seem to help at all. So my mission now is to start clearing those clothes that I dun think i will even wear again from my wardrobe. I started to scan through those clothes that I have and I realised that my taste have evolved or changed over the years. So taste for fashion does change. Tat's y women tend to buy many clothes even though they already have tons of them at home. I shall do the clearance next week. Got to get ready and meet Dear in town! :D

Humid fri
Dear came back one day earlier than expected! He reached sg on wed nite. But I was soundly aslp when he msged me... hee.. So i woke up early the next day and prepared tiramisu. Initially I thought that I might have added too much alcohol and coffee powder. But luckily it turned out well! Mum said that it tasted better than the first attempt. N Dear likes it (Hopefully he wasnt trying to comfort me.. hehe)!
Went to watch Julie and Julia (or is it Julia and Julie) with Dear ytd. Not too bad. But watching the movie made me hungry. We ended up eating Barcelos for dinner. The chicken wasnt exceptionally good and it was rather expensive. Talking about food, I am super hugry while typing out this entry! Still waiting for Bro to come home and have dinner. *I m feeling weak and dying...*
Okie I shall stop all these crap and get back to my essay! Deadline is drawing really near! (I m kind of crappy today:P)

day 8
Dear just called me in the morning! After waiting for so many days, Dear finally called as he only managed to get some handphone reception upon reaching the harbor. Still have a few more days before Dear comes back! Hee :D
Oh I mentioned about the tiramisu which I tried making a few days ago. It was a success! So I went to buy another tub of marscapone cheese from Holland Village's cold storage ytd in preparation to make it next week when Dear comes home!

day 2
its the 2nd day of Dear's deployment. Wonder what's Dear doing now... Still got so many days before Dear is back.
Was surfing the internet for the recipe on making Tiramisu. I was so inspired to make one after watching Easy Cooking on channel 8 last fri. Only 7 steps are required to make tiramisu. And I manage to find the recipe online! Went to cold storage with my family today to source for the ingredients and found them. But I din buy the Kahlua coffee liqueur. It was so damn expensive. So decided to substitute it with other liqueur at home. Haven tried out the recipe yet. Will do it probably some time this week. Hopefully its a success and I can make it for Dear when he comes back home :D (shall buy Kahlua at Changi Airport when I come back from my Taiwan trip as it should be cheaper there.)

Mistakes
Everyone makes mistakes. No one is a saint in this world. But mistakes can sometimes be a learning lesson for us, letting us know what we actually want or what are the areas we should change or improve on, making us a better and happier person.
Sometimes when I look back, I would wonder why I accept that or make that decision in the past. Not that it affects me now, but I just couldnt believe that that was me in the past. I figured out that maybe I have changed, or more importantly, I have really grown up. More mature and realistic in thinking and most importantly, I know what I want in life. So sometimes a mistake might not be too bad a thing after all.
********************************************************************
Just went back to school for around one mth. Apparently, many things have been happening during our practicum mths. I have heard a of a few relationship problems amongst my fellow frens. One of which involves goals in life between a couple. I agree that a couple needs to have similar life goals in order to sustain a relationship. The goals need not be exactly the same. But at least they have to be similar. After knowing all my frens' problems, I started to get paranoid myself. That very night, I asked Dear if we have similar goals in life and what exactly are his life goals. We had actually talk about this very long ago. But just to verify that they are still valid, I asked him again. As usual, he pinched my nose and said "you are getting paranoid again". Yah. I must agree that I am. But the happenings, or rather stories, reminded me that happiness should not be taken for granted.
May happiness will always be with me :D

Songs dedicated for BAD GUYS
It nv occurs to me that these songs are toking about bad guys until I saw the lyrics (cos I normally wont give much thought for lyrics when I was listening to them over the radio).
I am a visual learner!
I have posted this song before. The presence of lyrics in the video made me post it again :P

Just cross my mind...
Its always nice to have someone by your side to share your sorrows and happiness with. Especially when times are hard, when your are facing with stress, its always comforting to know that someone is always there to give you support and lend you the shoulder to rest on when you are tired. It gives us strength to move on and overcome any difficulties.
I remembered during my first day of work, I gave myself so much stress to the point of breaking down (its self-inflicted stress). It might be PMS after much thought now. I was feeling so emotional during that few days and I had the tendency to cry over minor things. I could no longer suppress my emotions and finally broke down and cried when Dear called me. It was really comforting when there is someone there to listen to you and encourage you.
I m glad that I have you to share my woes and happiness with :D
Knowing that you are not alone simply feels great!

Realisation
Was doing research for my assignment half-way through when I decided to mark down the important dates into my organizer. After finished marking down all the dates, I realised I would need to hand in one assignment every week in the month of October! Gosh! It's time to eradicate the lazy bug in me and start warming up my engine real soon.
Besides that, I realise I din manage to save much for the past 2 months! Last month, I juz spent a bomb for my year-end holiday trip. So logically speaking, I wont be able to save much. But this month, I din save much as well! After much investigation, I realised I spent the bulk of it (almost a quarter) on skincare, and the rest on good food. I shall stop having cravings for expensive food (I think part of the reason being too free as my timetable is quite slack, thus more time to visit restaurants and shop)! So what is my resolution for the coming months??? ANS: to monitor my spendings closely! I must reach my targeted savings by dec this yr! So I might be quite a miser for the next few months :P
October is coming soon! Dear needs to go on deployment somewhere in mid oct again! This time round will be around 10 days. Although it is shorter as compared to the previous trip, but 10 days is still quite long! I shall make use of the time to complete my assignment. Praying hard that Dear will be able to get leave in late nov so that he can attend my cousin's wedding with me!

Bored...
I m feeling so bored today. I actually have some homework to complete. But I m juz too plain lazy to get it started. The slack timetable somehow make me lazy. Just played guitar hero, surfed the net, and now typing this blog. What shall I do next?
Just sms Dad to ask him if I could go online to book the air tix to fly to m'sia to attend my cousin's wedding in nov. But we decided to book it when Dad comes home. Hopefully Dear's leave in nov will be approved so that he can go to the wedding with me as well! *cross fingers and pray hard*
Haven been exercising for a long long time! Think I have put on abit of weight which I haven been able to shed off since the beginning of this yr! *feeling upset* Maybe I shall embark on my exercise regime today!

sweet surprise =D
I received an unexpected bday present from a fren today! My bday fell within the school practicum period. I din expect my frens to remember my bday as practicum is usually the most stressful part of the course and everyone was preparing for LP and lessons. Its not about what presents are received, but is the thought that this fren of mine whom I have known for 1 yr remembers my bday. I am really touched =D

3rd day of sch!
Dear is on deployment again! Luckily its only 3 days.
I love my timetable for thi semester! Its only a 3-day week! Meaning I only nd to go to sch for 3 days! My thurs and fri are free days!!! Next week is only a one day wk! Yeah!
haven been updating my blog for some time. it doesnt matter if anyone reads it. but rather as a place for me to vent my frustration, or a place for me to pen down my happiness and beuatiful memories.
As I mature with time, the types of ppl I have come across increase. Not tat I have such a fren, but I have heard what my frens have experienced and I have observed it myself b4. One particular type of ppl i dislike most, are those who really "ai mian zi". some of them dun really show it in ur face. But they use discreet actions to show you. Actually no one is comparing with them. its they themselves who want to compare with ppl. What's the point? sometimes i really dun get it. When they see you have something expensive or branded, they quietly go n buy one and wear it the next time u meet them. Ppl will know which calibre you are off and you dun have to show it off. Juz like a janitor carrying an LV bag. What will ppl think when they see it? They will wonder if the LV bag is real. On the other hand, I pity these ppl. Bcos they will nv be happy with themselves since they are constantly comparing with other ppl. There is one thing I always believe in : Live within ur means. Life is not juz about branded stuffs. There are still many other things in the world that are far more impt than those material things.
Today's wed. Dear will be back by tmr nite! Yeah. I know tat Dear has been working hard to save up for the Big Day. Cant wait to see Dear soon!

My one week break :)
Just came back from m'sia ytd. And i suffered from some form of gastric flu on the second day. Vomitted. Vomitting is something which i really hate. It gives me a rather uncontrollable feeling, and all I can do is to follow the involuntary reaction of the body. came back on the third day, feeling much better. Now still had a bit of tummy cramps but is less frequent as compared to the past few days.
well, today was rather eventful. But Mum wasnt in good mood thou :( but she seems better now, after I 'saobaoing' her :p Went to Dear's Navy family day in the morning, met up with my sup in the noon, had a late lunch wif Dear (poor Dear had to wait hungrily for me at coffee bean for 1 hr!), then went to collect my new passport in ICA at ard 4 plus. The crowd at ICA was horrid! So many ppl no matter when u visit the place! Hmm~ now the first stamp that i will have on my passport will be the taiwan's stamp! Cost Dear and I will be going there in dec :)
My Sup is encouraging me to consider taking up Masters degree in 2 or 3 yrs time. Actually I have been thinking abt that as well. She suggested that I can do it while preparing for my marriage and just before I have kids. Which is quite true. Cos after 3 yrs, I will most prob be married (hopefully :P). One yr of honeymoon before having kids. So it's juz nice if i manage to complete my masters degree :)
tmr shall be a rest day! Shld plan wat to do on sunday before my lesson in NIE starts! Woohoo~~~

As for work, it is already wk 8 of the sch term. time really flies! I will be having one lesson observation tmr, one on thurs and one on fri! so after this wk, I will only have one last observation left! Hopefully the rest of my lesson observations will do well! I will try my best :)
School has been gd so far! with nice colleagues and mentors, as well as the cheeky but cute students. I happen to find out that one of my students stay in the same block as me! And its only one level above mine! So coincidental. or maybe its expected, cos i m staying relatively near to sch.
I took a 1 hr nap after dinner today. tat's y i m still here, typing this blog entry. shall go to bed and hug bunnie to slp soon!

day 4...
Received an unexpected email from dear this morning! this is my best bday pressie ever! since there is no reception in the open sea, dear could only email me when he got a rare chance in using the satellite on board the ship. its only day 4. Approx. 2 weeks more to go!

day 1...
today's the first day of dear's deployment to indonesia. Only day 1 and I am already missing him. sms him but receive no reply. i think there is no reception out at the open sea. Hopefully everything is well and how i wish time can be fast forwarded. so just in a blink of the eye, dear is back from deployment!
Met up with my fellows gal-frens today. Went to buy some art and craft stuffs. I tot i would only be the only one buying. but sf ended up buying more than me. hehe. gd that she likes the shop! now that she noe where to look for art and craft things when she needs them :)
reached home, showered, and on my computer to arrange some old photos. through the process, i realised i din delete some photos which i should have done so more than a yr back. i always tot i have already deleted everything, and i only realised that they were still there while tidying up the photo albums. Seeing those photos somehow made me felt weird. i din feel happy or wanting to reminisce those moments when i saw them. In fact the first thing i wanted to do was to delete all of them --- which i did. they used to be fond memories for me. But no longer now. it was a kind of weird feeling that i dun like. I like what i have now and i am feeling v happy it. Sometimes I wonder why I had to go thru those events before I could reach the stage I m now. Probably it has all been pre-determined? But I am very satisfied with what i have now. The past does not matter to me anymore.
All i need to do now is to wait. Wait for my dearest to be back from deployment :)

Updates.. (sort of)
3 week of work has juz passed. And I m slowly getting used to the pace of work now. I am quite happy with where I am posted to and I having really nice CTs. Hopefully this will really be my final posting.
Dear has been posted to Tuas naval base! It's a good news to us bcos we will get to meet up more often amidst our busy schedule and it is considerably nearer to my house. But my poor dear has to wake up super early to go to work if he is not staying in.
Working seems to reduce the frequency of us meeting. But dear will still try his best to set aside some time for me or call me daily. I know dear is usually quite tired after work, but he still try to set aside time for me. I really appreciate that :)
December is coming soon! Hopefully we can go on a vacation together. At least we can spend the time fully together!

EventFul Week!
The past week has been a busy busy week for me. First, I had my Ed Psy II presentation on mon. Next, I have Bio website presentation on wed, followed by Maths microteaching on thurs. On top of all these, my posting result was out on wed night and I got my housing ballot number on sat morning! The more important ones are my maths microteaching, posting results and house ballot number. Although it has been busy for me, I was quite glad as I got what I have wished for :)
My maths microteaching was quite alright I guess :) at least I think so. hehe. I am quite happy with my posting too! And not forgeting that I have gotten my ballot number for my house at The Peak @ TPY! The queue number is not really in the front, but at least it lies within the 50th percentile. So I think its still not so bad. Now have to start doing homework and see which are the units which we can choose from. So excited! Hopefully we can get our desirable unit!
Went to the showflats with my parents ytd. They are quite happy for me too! I think they muz be thinking "my daughter has grown up". I still dun feel that I m tat grown up thou :p

The mind
The mind is a very powerful thing. What you think affects what you would do or how you would response when you are faced with certain problems or situations. Thus having a positive or optimistic mindset in whatever things you are set to do is very important as well. Dun grumble about ur work or whether u like what you r doing anot. Sometimes passion can grow when you become more accepting of ur job. Who doesnt want a job that he or she is passionate about? But sometimes ppl juz have to be realistic, u still nd to satisfy Maslow's theory of needs. Let's say u dun work for money. So y dun you donate all the salary to a charity. In such a case, you r really not working for money(if passion is everything). The world we r living in, is a really realistic one. We should be thankful for what we are having now :)
It hurts to hear some truths. I dunno if they are truths cos the way they were being said seemed like a joke and at the same time seemed to contain certain truth in them. So was that r/s being sabotaged before? I m juz a lil upset.
I shld be writing my LP!!. So much work to do. But satisfaction is what you get when you manage to finish the task given :)

reflection
Juz read xy's blog post. Have a sudden urge to blog too.
I realised that her dreams are similar to those that I had when I was a JC student. Wanting to work/travel overseas, getting a high paying and good prospect job, travel the world etc. But that was what I had planned for myself, not including anyone.
As I grow, I realised my dream changes. What I have in plan now is very different from what I used to have when I was in my 17 and 18. My dreams are more realistic I guess. Maybe dreams change when u have found someone. Life values can change as well. Instead of travelling the world alone, I want to travel the world with the one I love. The plan of settling down a few years down the road, makes having a stable job a very impt aspect. E.g Banking is a very glamorious job, but it has long working hrs. But with so many ppl in that field, r u v sure that u will be a high flyer? In times of economic downturn, and when u r in ur 40s, arent u afraid of being retrenched? In this time and age, there is no job that will last u for a lifetime. But at least, there are lower risk jobs.
For now, I envision myself to settle down with you. I realise how not easy it is to find a house of an ideal location. But I m sure we'll find it :). We shall travel the world together :)
I very xiao nu ren hor? is it gd or bad? but at least i m happy now :)

Heartfelt
This songs made me relate to the song by A mei --- ting shuo. A song full of 'feel'. Every couple has to go through the stages of life together. Its juz like finding the way out of a jungle together --- an analogy from this song. Last time after listening to Ting Shuo, I got abandoned in the jungle. Hopefully it will nv happen to me ever again.
Somehow u will know if the person u r wif noe is really 'the one'. Somehow... nothing in this world is for sure. that's y i chose the use 'somehow'. u will feel that he or she is 'the one' when both of u r planning the future together, projected how it would be like 5, 10, 20 yrs down the road together instead of one-sided planning. When u feel the sincerity in the person. When u r placed on top of everything else.
I m glad to hav met u and I appreciate for all the things u hav done for me. Hopefully we will find the way out of the jungle together. :)

Best of Me
Went for my 4th educational pshycology I lesson ytd. I have always enjoyed that lesson, partly because the tutor is pretty much engaging and partly because its not such a dry subject as compared to sciences which is just facts, facts, and more facts.
Yesterday, the tutor asked the class, "is there any song that reminded u of someone?". No one raised up the hand. "Do u all have breakup song that reminds u of this particular gal or guy?" Again, no one raised up the hand. Then the tutor said, "Well, I have. I do have breakup song. Whenever I hear this song, it reminded me of the person. This is called learning by association whereby u associate the song to someone."
So there are things that we have been doing. Just that we didnt know its actually one way of learning. How interesting. Alrighty, time to go shower n go to school :P

Kou dai de tian kong
there is always a time when u will wake up from ur dream. But when there is faith, there is hope. I wont give up easily on things i want. But sometimes it takes 2 hands to clap. As long as I have done my best, I hav no regrets. That's my philosophy for life. :>
