travel plans for may

Filed under: The L Files, wanderlust — missyling @ 10:26 am

if you still don’t know, i will be going to bangkok for holidays this friday and finland for work at the end of may. as much as it may come as a surprise, this will be my virgin trip to bangkok - the land of endless shopping. although i’m not much of a shopping fan, it will be fantastic to take a break from work and explore a new and exciting city, especially when its nightlife holds so much promise! thai girl shows, ah-go-go bars, patpong and many many more!

if you have any recommendations for must-go places for these two cities, do drop me a line and let me know!

as of now, my traveling mates have already gone berserk with excitement… and they’re flooding my inbox with endless chatter about the upcoming bangkok trip while i’m still trying to keep my cool. heh.

bangkok

countdown: 4 days and counting…

as much as i’m excited about this holiday, i know that i will be leaving a part of me behind in singapore. i’ll miss you.

trying my damnest

Filed under: Work work... — missyling @ 8:14 pm

honestly, i’m trying my damnest/hardest at holding it all together without letting anything slip.

i’m being pulled from all directions…and the line is as taut as it can get.

i’m going to snap soon…and we’ve already had a preview today.

how long more can i last?

let’s wait and see.

the alleged public relations day

Filed under: Musing reflections, Work work... — missyling @ 2:37 pm

note: this is a back-dated post.

pr professionals

a fun take on what’s pr about

themediaslut has declared 9 april to be the day to highlight and celebrate the work that pr professionals do.

there’s no particular cause or reason behind this movement. it’s just a fun thing to do.

let’s see how long or how many people will it take to get this off the ground - if ever.

i’m plugging this purely because i’m in the said field as well and since more than 95% of my friends do not know what being in public relations entails, it will be a good opportunity to educate the general public on what the pr profession is really about.

i said, if this ever takes off, okay?

meanwhile, happy public relations day to all!

mis-judgement

Filed under: Musing reflections, Soccer Mania — missyling @ 10:39 am

as a rule of thumb, i tend to trust someone until proven otherwise because i believe that people should give others the benefit of the doubt.

recently, i have a friend who has put this belief to the test - time and time again.

right now, i’m thinking of how i should handle this in the best way possible.

i’m starting to realize that i might really just be a lousy judge of character…even after being around for 25 years.

naivety or stupidity?

it’s a bloody fine line..

p/s: in other news, man utd has just ended arsenal’s dreams with their 2-1 win at home. as much as i don’t want to admit it, i have to say that man utd’s second goal was truly impressive.

my love affair with roses

Filed under: Dreamy & Wistful, Heartbeats, The L Files — missyling @ 7:10 pm

note: this is a backdated post

roses have always been highly sought-after as it is the ultimate symbol of love, especially in the victorian times where the flower has inspired many famous poets and playwrights such as william shakespeare in their literary works.

an ardent fan of literature works based on the victorian times, it would come as no surprise that roses will be my favorite flowers too. to be specific, red roses.

the fiery red color signifies burning passion that threatens to scald the bearer, in contrast to its tender petals that feel like silk to the touch. this blatant contrast seems to hold a special attraction for me.

anyhow, the point of this post -

thank you for this.

roses from you

as much as i loved the flowers, it was more the thought and effort that you’ve went through to find out that these were my favorites that touched me more.

what people ought to know, but don’t - especially me

Filed under: Birthdays!, Musing reflections — missyling @ 11:43 am

i’ve learnt one very important thing over my last weekend:

NEVER (and i really mean never ever) eat flu medicine before going for a drinking session.

you’ll be out before you know it. and you won’t even know what the fuck hit you until it’s too late.

take it from me.

p/s: sorry for the delay in the birthday pictures, they’ll be up soon - i promise! by this week, no less.

pp/s: happy birthdays to the feb/march babies - gracey, wendy and ivan!

happy birthday to me - another 365 days older

Filed under: Birthdays!, Work work... — missyling @ 7:27 pm

another 365 days have passed and i’m one year older again.

it’s my birthday and i’m stuck at the kl international airport waiting for my flight home - exhausted and incredibly sleepy.

what a lousy way to spend this special day - not sleeping enough, worrying and working my ass off.

damn it.

happy birthday

anyway, happy birthday to me.

more updates on this eventful work trip when i’m back home - the internet connection is horrible here.

p/s: thank you for all the birthday wishes, i’m really touched that you remembered!

this is the day

linked hearts

i know that this is back-dated, but this is one of the significant moments in my life and it needs to be in here.

finally i’ve taken a step forward after much hesitation and doubts - and one of the major factors is that you’ve inspired me enough for me to overcome my fears to risk it again.

for that, i thank you.

and i’m looking forward to us.
