Bridgeramaniacs

Bridgeramaniacs. A new term that I have invented for the hardcore pple who love bridge. To what extent do we love to play bridge, one might ask? I will answer, to the extent that we meet on a Sunday, when someone have not finished his exams, yet joined us for games of bridge for 6 straight hours. To the extent that even with only 3 pple left, we continued playing with one dummy. Now, would you call that hardcore? Yes I would! Perhaps it is the pple who matters. The company that we enjoyed with one another. It is in principle, the same as playing mahjong. Although winning and losing adds to the thrill, playing with the right pple is the ultimate fun. The gossiping that is a must during such sessions! Wondrous! =)

Stronger than Yesterday!

People always ask me, why am I forever so happy? I find it hard to answer.. I am human, just like everybody, and I have my ups and downs, just as anyone do.. Maybe the difference btw them and me merely lies in the fact that I forget my unhappiness quickly, or at least I try.

Chun told me a few days ago, that she thinks that I am very strong, to be able to stand up again so quickly. That really made my day, since the reason why I always call myself the man is because I like to think myself as a strong person. Yesterday, Wes told me that he is less worried about me than the others because he knows that I can take care of myself. Yes, I always think positive! And I think that this is a trait that will serve me well in the future.. I hope =)

Nonetheless, I face setbacks still.. Just today, I received my first rejection letter for a job application. This is one job that I have always thought that I wanted. To face the brutal fact that I am rejected whilst I had harboured such high hopes made me realise that I am not as good as the others out there. I had thought that I am well prepared for rejections.. Cos I know that it is not that easy, and near impossible to be able to get a job after sending the first application.. But the rejection still hit me hard.. Yet, I tell myself, it's ok.. It might jolly well be a blessing in disguise.. No point crying over spilt milk, I will pick myself up from here and just hope for the best..

Frens, if you are like me, trying hard to find a job now, and is reading rejection letters as often as reading newspapers, it's alright! We shall persevere! 好的东西是值得等待的! In the meantime, let's just slack together!

F, I'm glad that you are alright! You must come back stronger! He is worried, very worried! =)

I miss you mimi... Wondering if you are flirting with the uncles in Vietnam? Ooopss.. That's a scary thought.. Anyway, Bebe is not abstaining from bridge =p

No need to include 笨死了 in my blog, she won't read it.. 真是笨死了!

好久不见的老朋友

Was out with Ms yip-pu, Wes and Loy, finally, after so long.. CC and Wy could not make it.. No worries, still lotsa time to meet up gers! Haha.. back to the old times of chatting.. Nice... This is a different type of fun that I have with the red tables peeps... But I like all the diff types of fun anyway!

As usual, there are always pics taken when Ms Yip-pu is ard! And I took photos while walking to take a cab with Wes too.. We pass by Singapore Museum and it was so beautiful! Before we knew it, cameras were in our hands and we were busy snapping away!

Well, was reading F's blog a while ago.. She seemed sad.. real sad.. kinda worried for her... Hope that all will turn out well for her! Many a times, things do not happen the way we desired.. And many a times, life disappoint us.. What we can do, is to be strong and perservere! Easier said than done but still worth the try nonetheless =) Think cations; think positive!

Was wondering if I should go to school to accompany Susu tml... But really feeling super duper lazy.. Planning to apply for more jobs and go to the lib to borrow the long awaited romance novels! Yeah! Perhaps next week Su, I will be there! Maybe thu? Red tables peeps, wait for me to play bridge!

Activation energy barrier overcome!

Well well well! Welcome to Fifi's first ever blog! Was contemplating on whether I should start my blogger's life, but sisi was quite enthu about it, even asked my for my addy! So I decided that I shall share my thoughts with everyone! John, if u r reading this, it doesn't bother me, cos I dun think our paths will ever cross again! If u dunno who he is, ask me privately ya =)

Went jamming at Ben's home today.. It's interesting how life can be.. One week ago, I would have said that I have never spoken to Ben, neither have I ever jammed. Today, I can proudly tell u that I jammed at Ben's home with mimi, sisi, bebe n of course, Ben... It was an exhilarating experience! Not that I played any instruments... I was in fact the 'lead female singer' with Bebe as my partner... He can really sing.. The hidden talents of all the chemistry pple.. Oh.. talking about having a wonderful voice, u just got to listen to fenfen sing! Her voice is amazing.. Sweet and soothing.. Even Weewee and his specialty, 写一首歌 by 顺子was no match for her! Haha.. No pun intended weewee!

I am having so much of fun with these pple, that I so know that I will be devastated when the time to part arrives. And it has arrived, sort of.. Most of us have finished our papers, and some are earnestly finding jobs (think lulu and fifi) while the others are all awaiting to start their working lives. However, we are defying the eventuality of parting by planning all sorts of activities to meet up. Ice skating, suckao appreciation (sucking of coffee beans, as according to weewee), tennis, squash, ktv.... U name it, u have it.. And imagine, these people are all someone that I have no inkling of their existence one year ago.. But now, we are all so reluctant to leave one another. I know its impossible to meet all these people in future, but I certainly hoped that the red tables peeps will keep in contact! Bebe was already planning to make everyone cry during grad night, which mimi, lulu, weewee and me can't go! Sigh... If Josh Groban's 'U raise me up' can make them cry, I dun think I can bear to see.. Xiaoling will be the first to cry, followed by fenfen.. Third in line would probably have been me.. It might not be such a bad thing not to go.. Anyway, if u pple are reading my blog, pls know that I really love u pple alot! This is the best sem in my entire years of studying! Siamo Quello!

No matter what happened in your lives, no matter if I'm around to share it with u, always remember -- THINK CATIONS; THINK POSITIVE! Just like the way I postulated my mechanism to be via a cationic intermediate, lives must always be filled with positivities!
