april always brings me luck part II

please read the previous post before you read this entry, to make more cow sense out of my words.
the prev post was typed on 1st April but i din finish & publish it. haha. lazy me. here's the part II, which will of course update with the happenings since then.

so anyway, i must explain why my title is April always brings me luck... over these years, i discovered a trend. that 'good' things always seem to fall around march/april for me.. things like the start of a relationship, knowing new people, the changing of (bad) luck/fortune, and well just nice, good things.. this year's April is also a great one. :) I kickstarted april with celebrating my 1st year anni with piggychan. hehe, we went for a movie (Horror movie 'Coming Soon' - last year when we got together, we also watched some horror movie -_-) and then dinner at NewYorkx2. i gave him this 'snake-and-ladder' memory board game that i did myself, but we have yet to play it haha. its a cute bioard with our photos as keepsake but there aint any snakes, just ladders to indicate the progress of our r/s so far.. and if the player lands on some good spot, he/me will get a freebie like free dinner or massage, but if we land on other spots, we may have to be forfeited hehe. and then piggychan actually gave me what i wanted most so far (besides a chanel bag/christian louboutins, of course) ---- a bouquet of flowers! :)) it really made me very happy plus he went the extra mile to wrap the flowers himself. it was touching and memorable for 2 reasons, 1stly he has nv given any other girls flowers and think they are redundant, but he got them for me (cuz i am MISS SPECIAL lol), and 2ndly he wrapped the flowers himself without prior flower-wrapping experience. haha i did advise him how to wrap them better next time :P based on my few years of vday flower wrapping experience during FOC hahaah.. so thank you darling for the beautiful flowers. love them dd!!

moving on from the mushy talk, the next best thing (or maybe the best thing, considering the economic downturn) is that I FINALLY FOUND A ZOOOB!!! okay, so it wasnt from Design Bridge (dont ask me why??!!), nor am i highly paid to schmooze, but at least it is the type of job i was looking out for in a creative field, in an agency. and starting very soon... on 20th April (also happen to be noel's bday), i will be starting work as an account executive at Impetus Mktg Grp.. but that means, i have less than 3 days after my final exam this thurs to enjoy post-graduation. sob. but still i am thankful that i managed to schmooze my way in, with almost zero real working experience as a fresh grad. maybe it just happened that the other interviewees were more substandard than me wahah. but yeah, the quick end to my job-hunting really put to rest my stressed mind and finances. add to that, MOE was kind enough to delay our repayment for study loans for one year.. i just hope that everything will go smoothly at my workplace.. that the env is conducive, and the people will be friendly and nice, and not some scary backstabbers. until next week....

then today was our fyp's presentation. surprisingly, the Q&A went pretty well, i guess our supervisor and 2 moderators were all really nice to us, and didnt harp too much on the weaker part of our campaign. it was delightful to know that they tot our ideas were great but too bad we cldnt carry them out the way we wanted, and i think they were pretty impressed that 3 of us juggled so many roles and successfully executed the run that attracted many first-time IWD participants! yay. hope that we can at least get a B+ lah, for our 3-women team hardwork, i think i am really proud to say that we conducted this inaugural IWD run :) it also marks the end of our FYP (more or less), as well as the very last day that i would be at that very place i so wanted to be, 4 years ago.. the sch catered a free buffet lunch for us year 4 students so it was also the final time so many of us gathered at the same place, sharing the same module called FYP. haha... so me, ET and ST decided to take silly cranky photos.. it was so spastic that i think people were giving us weird looks. haha, n we also got kenneth chia to help us take photos.. and it reminded me of back in year 2 when me & him took pics tog aft our tedious video editing project. oh my, those photos, haha i really look very different then & now. same for him, think his style is more toned down now, thankfully :P tho i dont know that many ppl in sch, but i think he's one of those ppl whom i will still contact in future aft we graduate.. who knows, we might be in the same agency someday haha.. he can be the eccentric copywriter who demands his $2.00 worth of fruits everyday. LOL.

Being in SCI, i wouldnt say it was v memorable since i wasnt close to most of my sch mates but well if ever our paths cross again in this small industry, i hope that we will all be civil and nice to each other haha.. but looking back I think i will agree that the 4 years of uni life was enriching and memorable thanks to hall life.. it is as if, school was my cca, whilst i was there to experience hall life 24/7. if i hadnt stayed in hall, i wouldnt have known so many new friends (heck i think i wont even have friends in school, cuz my friends in school are all from hall like siting, shuwan they all).. if i hadnt stayed in hall, i bet my life would have been less colorful, and without so many photos and memories to rmb these past 4 years by. it would have been a slow and painful 4 years of dreadful studying.. i think hall life was really one of those once-u-experienced-you-will-not-regret chapters of my life. i definitely miss staying in hall 12 with my roomie.. and the late nights, the suppertimes, the freedom, and believe it anot, i miss the shower and laundry facilities!!! (cuz i dont have to pay for them and can use frequently!!)..

just now noel also said something to me which surprised me, and it was also really touching. he said that he will make enough money to buy me a chanel bag haahaha... i was taken back cuz he always said that its not justifiable or understandable why women will be willing to spend so much on bags/shoes/clothes.. and that we shd just buy fake chanels and wear it like the real thing. so naturally i asked him if he really meant it..and he said anything to make me happy.. :)) i mean its not so much being happy knowing i will get my chanel bag dunno-when years down the road, but i was elated knowing that he had that thought/impulse to want to buy me something that i love, just because he wants me to be happy. so i quickly said 'but u cannot go chanel and buy the bag without me hor'. cause i want to be able to go in there and walk out of the store armed wiith their paper bag with the much loved brand new sparkling bag inside!!! lol, thats why it cannot be a surprise buy. must hold my head high go in to buy, and come out with a big smirk to the other ladies standing nearby. *i must be crazy haha..i might as well say next time i buy Christian louboutins in 5 inches and i wear them out of the store to tower over other women!!*

alright i suppose this post is most updated! :D i am bursting to post my recent fashion addictions.. as well as my dream phone! for the next posttttttt. and i must revive this dead blog of mine.

goodbye or see you,
I'll be your best kept secret or your biggest mistake.
