Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mmmmmmmm

Maybe surrounded by
A million people
IStill feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh I miss you, you know

And I’ve been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
“I’m fine baby, how are you?”
Well I would send them but I know that it’s just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that

Another aeroplane
Another sunny place

I’m lucky I know
But I wanna go home
Mmmm, I’ve got to go home

Let me go home
I’m just too far
from where you are
I wanna come home

And I feel just like I’m living someone else’s life
It’s like I just stepped outside

When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
But this was not your dream
But you always believed in me

Another winter day has come
And gone away
And even Paris and Rome

And I wanna go home

Let me go home

And I’m surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel alone
Oh, let me go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

Let me go home
I’ve had my run
Baby, I’m done

I gotta go home
Let me go home
It will all be allright
I’ll be home tonight

I’m coming back home

Week 4 update

Hi, Have not been blogging for quite sometime cos of business n partly I am down wif a bout of bad flu

It was not a very happy week 4...To start wif, Oskar's sudden death on Monday is most upsetting...

I got a chill on Weds.... maybe becos I hav been exposed some bacteria during Oskar's disinfection... Then I got a sore throat n went to see a doctor quickly( u all know how contagious my rhinovirus can be). I thought seeking early medication will be helpful... but NO!!! The flu symptoms changed for the worse... n my body feels heaty... got all those nasty boils...

Felt weak n lousy during the weekend... I nv slept so much in my life... Its like I woke up to hav my meals a watch tv for two hrs b4 feeling tired n heading to sleep again n waking up feeling even more exhausted...

Anyway, I took two rounds of antibotics n they seems to hav no effect on the state of my nasal fluids. My throat n nose feels choked...

I guess I should start eating Ice-cream...

Week 3

3 weeks down .... Somehow I feel that time passes so fast n yet so slow....

What am I talking abt? Basically, there r so many things I want to do after getting a job n some pay but I hav so little time on hand to perform all these tasks....

I guess the most important n easiest thing on the agenda is to get new clothes. Yesterday found out that my colleagues thought that I'm an Industrial Attachment student... Haaa! (Ok... I admit... I got that student kiddy look, n the air of an intern girl)

Hav been exercising my phone manners abit this week... I feel that confidence play a big role.

I'm scrubbing myself dutifully during bathtime after work wif lots of dettol.... Got scolded by mum cos dettol ages skin alot.... I guess I hav no choice due to some eeeks thingy (to those who understand) ~ I think Oskar is cleaner....

This week, I hav seen great n terrible examples of responsibilities. I learn that no matter how high u climb the career ladder or how minor ur role is( like me, a little grade 20 assistant officer), having responsibility is very very essential n that's makes u stand out...

I have lots to learn...

My Clown Loach

Hi, here are 2 pics of my little baby clown loaches... Mikki n Nikki, taken during their first week here...

This is Nikki... The hot fierce loach

Heee! The both of them kissing.....

Hmmm.... As for my teenage loaches, Nigel n Gordon, they r to mischievous to stay still for photo taking...

Overbended Rubber Band

Can u imagine a girl's temperment like an overbended rubber band? Grumpy, irritable, fussy, even cynical... All the elements present in this entry

I got my pay on Thursday... finally, after weeks of chasing after every inch of the agent's ear I could speak hold of.... I feel like an irritant for doing that but I guess I have no choice... For some individual's great delay.

Felt achy n terrible since Wednesday... Drown myself wif all the warm water I could...
felt weak n low in performance... Very tempted to eat lots of sugary stuff to pep up... Have been slumbering everyday on the bus... ( hope i did not drool)
I guess keeping hydrated n warm is the best way...

I feel so bad n sorry for snapping at the HR person who came to my place unexpectedly today ... I'm juz too physically n mentally tired n frustrated wif everything becos of one stupid prominent protein known as Oestrogen infusing my cells.

Dinner rocks!!

Today we were to hav a mini gathering for the guys before they go into NS on Friday... From a party of 7, it dwindled down to only Sal n me... So sad... I guess its the graduation n our darling FAST system in sch causing us to drift away slowly...

Nevertheless, we met for dinner at Orchard n we went to Breeks cos she had cravings for Roasted Chicken.... I ordered a BBQ half chicken, while Sal got a Rosemary chicken...

Sal's Rosemary chicken....

My BBQ chicken.... Its so delicious!!!

Both chickens were great n to make their edibility(a new word), they were slaugthered to the bones by two innocent looking gals(Wolves in Sheepskin) ... hands on, knives n forks shoo( who cares abt table manners when gd food is there)...

Although it was only the 2 of us, i guess we hav fun n thr private time for girls talk... I enjoy that!!! I can't wait for the next gathering!!!

Xuan, the Mechanical Engineer

Its the weekend n I'm so grateful for it...

I got a number of surprises in the office....

I discovered that I could walk to office instead of taking the Feeder bus... Its a 10 mins walk from the interchange n its definitely much faster to wait for the bus...

However, the route is like a maze game we see on TV...

First, I hav to pass the MRT under pass to the other side. Then I hav to pass through the HDB flats to the garden or the Land Of Pedes... Y? Its crawling wif millipedes in all directions on the ground... Yucks!!!I hav to tiptoe n look on the ground to watch out for these awful creatures....
The alternative is to walk along the older flats n the route will be longer... its littered with Phelgm n some cockroaches... Yucks!!!

Then I hav to walk pass a rubbish dump n then to a path leading to the road...

After crossing the road, its walking another 50Metres or so to TP3 in the huge complex n I'm at my desk!!!...

On Friday, When I was back from the loo in the afternoon, I saw a nametag on the wall of my seat with my name. Its the kind of black tag wif white letters like the PRINCIPAL tag, we see in our primary sch days.... I'm not very cheery over it as well...

I'm planning to stock up a bit n shop a little cos the Julius Butter crackers in office is making my throat hurt n its so pai seh to take the butter cookies..

Alas!!! I hav 23 weeks more to go...

l feel like an undergoing intern... N I feel so mechanical... Work, Home, Sleep... Work, Home, Sleep... Yup... I know what to tell others what's my job ~ Xuan is a Mechanical Engineer ~ Haaa! FInally, I fulfilled my dream without going to engineering school!!

Will I last 23 weeks? I dunno...I miss my Biz n IT world... they r more authentic to me... I somehow feel my immaturity n unprepareness in the working world... Especially here, in this giant complex... where everyone is so experienced...

Maybe I should buy 4D with my pay n go back to sch...
