拥有声音的人总把最动听的话藏在心里。Came across this phrase when I was watching a serial. This phrase just strikes in my mind....most humans are like that aren't they? I also happen to be one of them.Most of the time humans always do not say what they really mean. Be it circumstances or any other reasons. Was wondering if everyone is going to be truthful to one another, is it going to be a good or bad thing. Well good thing because no one lies and you get the truth straight in your face but on the other hand, can we handle the truth?
A good friend always tell me "Sometimes things you do not know will not hurt you." But if you somehow found out, don't you wish you were the first to know it? And after that somehow you will just think "what if.."and hope the situation to change...but can we?
Well in life there are alot of "what ifs"....Humans can never be contented to what they have...That is how life works...you can never win all the time and yet we humans never stop
trying....
Anyway these are just some of my thoughts.....nothing special.....

I am here 1 week already. Never really stepped out of the office compound until last Saturday. Went around town to walk.First we went to a few museums to take a look. Here in Austria the buildings are very old but well maintained. Then we went to the peak of Graz. The view up there was magnificent. I even got 2 fridge magnets for my mum and aunt as souveniers...that already cost me about SGD20....
Anyway I walked around and went window shopping. Wanted to buy alot of things but the price tag is not very cheap. Managed to get a winter top and turtle neck for about SGD30. That is a good bargain.
Still thinking whether to come home for CNY. The airticket I have to pay my own and it's not cheap. About 1k odd....any kind sponsors out there want to donate to my air ticket home??

DeeDee gave birth yesterday but due to unfortunate circumstances, her 2 puppies did not survive.I guess all is fated. My poor baby not only lost her babies, she also ended up weak. Everyone at home is exhausted from all the excitement to the lost. Guess the impat hurts DC the most as DeeDee is her favourite. Well all I hope now is that she gets well and up soon.
Thanks to all friends who has given me and DC support in anyway...you all are the best!
And to the 2 baby puppies...hope you find a better place over at the rainbow bridge. Although you did not get a chance to see world, hope that when you go over to doggie heaven you will be very happy up there!!

My Dear DeeDee is now giving birth in Singapore. Luckily for her, her daddy just arrived back home. She seems to like know the timing.
Here I am getting excited and trying to find out more about the situation at home but it seems like it quite difficult. Luckily still got Jen around to msn me any latest information.
DeeDee, you must hang on ok...Mummy loves you...although I am not there personally, I will morally support you...must have a smooth delivery!!

It's now 11pm Austria time and it's 6.10am Singapore time and I am still working in the office...kinda tired but no choice can't leave till the boss allow us to....He has been on us the whole weekend and can understand the kind of pressure he has. He got pressure so he pressure us...very normal....everyday we have been working from 8.30am till late...best part is still having abit of jet-lag.
Setting up of the office is done half and must say it is quite nice. As for our apartment, they still have to do the kitchen and set up the rest of the furniture. Luckily the bedroom and toilet is done already or it is sure hell....
Anyway good to be busy, at least time is easier to pass and also keep my mind from thinking too much things....just hope everything will be smooth from now...My aunt will be coming over tomorrow...hope me and Ginny would not be too busy!!

Weather is getting colder by the days....today is Sunday and I am still working...well this week is very crucial as we just amanged to get the job for another stadiums.Coming over here to start up the new office means me and Ginny having to do everything, from cleaner auntie, to clerk to secretary....went to Ikea yesterday to get some office supplies and not to mention to get our own room supplies like pillows and bedsheets.
Getting used to the weather here...one good thing is that the place is very nice, especially in the morning...cold weather with nice scenery and fresh air.....it's very breathtaking....at the same time I also wished I had someone right here beside me enjoying the moment....
Anyway the work starts at 8.30pm and does not end till like 9pm...best part is that no one works here in Austria hence most shops are closed...ok will update more when I have the time...till then take care my dear friends!!

Arrived Austria today and I must say the 13hrs flight is a killer...luckily Ginny was with me all the while during the journey.At Changi ariport, we had he funniest moment...our bags are totally too overweight..in the end me and Ginny had to forgo our foodstuff and most of our clothes...still my dear Ginny had to pay $180 fo excess baggage. After saying all our goodbyes, we proceeded to board the plane..Ginny's tears flowed and I wanted to cry too because it's going to be a long time away from home..but I did not...I told myself I had to be strong.
After reaching Frankfurt, both of us are really tired. We still had to wait for 1 hour before we caught another plane to Graz. During transit, the customs confisicated my shampoo, my toothpaste, my mouthwash. They are really strict about liquids going on board and also creams that are over 100g. Luckily my cream for cold rash is 100g...hence I still had that.
Once we reach Graz, our colleague picked us up from the airport. It is 10 degrees in Graz now...our apartment is at our office upstairs. As everything is still in construction, we had to share our apartment with the 2 guy colleagues. Best part is the room is very raw...only 2 beds available...had the feeling of going back to urbanisation. After putting down our bags, we went straight to the office to have briefing...both me and Ginny are terribly tired because of jetlag and also hungry. Waited almost 1 hour before we had our lunch (It's 7 hours behind Singapore time).
Lunch is from a Chinese restaurant and the food is expensive. It's rice with one dish of vegetable fried with chicken...that cost us euro5 which is SGD10...sigh...everything is expensive here!
Went on to pack our room and realise we need to get brooms and cloth and other necessities. Our colleague then drove us to the supermarket and we got some bread,eggs,milk,cloth to clean the room, cheese, soap...everything is not cheap here...cost from 2euro to 5euro...sigh...I really wonder how long my money can last me.
Now still in the office...feeling very sleepy...really wonder how I am going to survive this place here...beginning to miss home terribly...and the best part is our colleague told us we are here to work 7days a week, from 8am -6pm provided there is nothing to do...why do I feel I am being sold here as a coolie? Anyway hope tomorrow will be a better day!

Anothe few more hours I will be leaving for the airport....I must say I am feeling real sad now...maybe because I have to leave my love ones behind...maybe because the only person that I love is no longer loving me...sigh! Anyway, I still hope for the best and pray for everyone I know to be healthy and prosperous in this new year...Going to Austria is a very big step and risk I am taking, well like what they say you win some, you lose some, nothing is fair in this world i learned...till now I felt it was never fair that things had to turn out this way....but what can I do? There are alot of questions unanswered, alot of things uncertain....well time will prove whether those are rumours or lies...all I have to do is just wait....anyway to all my dear friends, please take good care of yourself and have a great year ahead...if Nana can make it back to Singapore in 1 piece I will meet up with you all again, if I don't please do take care of my dogs and remember there is this Nana who will always love you!kittylover feeling feeling at 7:43 PM
Flying off to Austria tonight...feeling abit down cause I have to leave home and my 3 kids again...things have changed since I returned home and this time round I am leaving with a heavier heart....
Anyway this is it, although I am sad, I still have to accept the fact and let it go at the moment....maybe it will do both of us good...well at least we did not part bitterly...we are still good friends....
Austria will be a new environment, a new beginning...let's hope everything will not be that harsh and who knows...maybe in the near future when I come home, surprises will be installed for me...good ones I mean.

Been home since last Thursday and I must say it feels great to be home! I never realise I missed home so much until I went over to HK to work.Really missed the food back here...so far I am trying my best to go and eat whatever I missed the most...think I will put on the weight that I have lost!!
My dogs are very happy to see me...they sure have grown alot since I left....DeeDee is about to give birth soon and so her temper changed...she is now like a little mother, protecting herself always...not like the siao char bor running around always...so cute!!
Will be going to Austria soon on Thursday...I must say i got so many things to pack and unpack...life is not going to be easy over there and do hope that the experience will be a good gain for me...I will miss everyone!!

2 months plus in Hongkong....worked and slogged like mad....in the end I realise so much things happened and changed....things,humans,feelings....is it true that everything is so fragile nowadays that it cannot go through any trial and tests?Maybe going to Hongkong is a good thing...it at least let me see through alot of things...I learnt to be independant, to be strong, to be tactful....people in HK are quite sly but well there are good and bad people and I learn not to judge a person by the book...
Nothing much to write, nothing much to say...everyone is tired...I am tired.....but life still must go on....I must tell myself to buck up and start preparing for everything soon....

Have alot of catching up to do with all my friends and darling.Weather has been cold these 2 days in Hongkong....how I wish D.C was here with me so that I could hug her to get some warmth...nothing beats that kind of sweetness isn't it? But I think once I am back home, I will miss everyone here...well humans...they just can never be satisfied with the things they have....
Just manage to finish some of my paper work....life in the office these few days has been peaceful because no heads around..either all gone home or gone on business trips..anyway suppose to go and get my spectacles from Mongkok later...do not know whether to go all the way there or not cause today I am not feeling so good...hmm....should I go or not???

It's a brand new year and time does pass by really fast....I was suppose to return home but in the end due to work committments, I am still here in Hongkong.Spending my Christmas and New Year here in Hongkong is nice but different...basically it's because my darling, family and friends are not here and well atmosphere is just not the same..even though I went drinking session with the new found friends, it's just not the same like in Singapore. But on the 30th I went to Chang Zhou with a group of them for chalet. First time I had BBQ HK style...quite cute...their style is just put the charcoal and burn...then later the food just skewer and hold on the top of the fire exposed and slowly bbq till the food is cooked...abit slow and tiring but quite a nice feeling especially when it was so cold at night! First time leh I wear thick jacket and bbq and never sweat lor...but i never eat much also...scared I get sore throat...played mj with them for awhile then went out to supper...the streets are filled with food!! Ate so much stuffs! Had a very nice durian crepe...long time never eat durian! Missed it very much....after that we walk back and stop by a shop to buy some cards...my sister then bought a whole packet of glue that you put on a mini straw and blow huge bubble with it....played this when i was a little gal and filled with so much memories...we even competed see who can blow the biggest bubble!!
Anyway, enough of my chalet...now alot of people ask me what is my new year resolutions...to be honest I've long never made any new year resolutions because I am never able to keep them....haha...let's say my wishes for 2007 then...
1) Lots Of $$
2) Stay happy with D.C
3)Every of my dear friend is healthy and happy
4)Solve all the financial problems
5)All my furkids to be well,healthy,happy and obedient
Talked to D.C over the phone...updated me on the stuffs in Singapore...well I am only gone for 2 months plus and I must say alot of things happened while I was away. Sigh..I really miss Singapore very much...talk about it my DeeDee is pregnant and is about to give birth soon..I am going to be a "Grandmother" liao...wahhhh!!! haha!
Anyway tentatively I am suppose to return home on the 13th. Let's hope that I will be able to go home this time round. I will pray hard!
