DBS fraud!

News reported unauthorized deduction from DBS account and being one of those typical paranoid singaporean, I decided to check my account too and told my colleague about it.


My conversation with her

Me: I'm going to check my account and see if I'm one of the victim.
Colleague: Aiya! You check for what? You are so poor! I don't think the robber will even bother robbing you.

HOW TRUE.

going for my 1st NY resolution

finding a way out slowly and making it happen.
F.I.N.A.L.L.Y :)
already delayed for a year, 25 and really not young anymore. i need to do it now or never.

thanks to jeannie who link me up with her pastor, i'm now given two countries to choose to volunteer my service with. was quite disappointed and unsure after my application failed with another organisation, working with special needs in cambodia. Y I NO have the qualification they requred? :(

anyhow the two places that he offered.. :D:D

east timor (the world youngest nation) and aceh (a village in indonesia).

east timor - teach english in secondary school, help out in their children program and maybe teaching of simple IT skills.

aceh - help out in their kindergarten and afternoon enrichment classes.

and both places require me to know a bit of bahasa indonesia! wooots! shall start learning it. so egg-citing yo!

in the midst of deciding which place to go to and if everything is oookkaaaaayyy, i'm intending to leave in april? TGPP!!

and now.. i need to break the news slowly to my mummmmms! :/

How I spent my countdown.. Forever alone much?


a recap

always a tradition to recap my year.. before that i actually reread what i wrote for the past few years.. so one benefit of keeping a blog, documenting events in your life and especially useful when your memory is bad. :)

if you are interested click on the link... 2008, 2009, 2010

and 2011 below :)

one word to sum up 2011... boring.

i'm not sure if it's because i cant travel this year thus i'm finding it extremely hard to pass. i love to travel btw and especially going overseas to do volunteer work which im suppose to go again this year. but because of some ban set by my parents i'm grounded for a year. but anyhow, 1 year gone now and hopefully whatever ordeal that i'm going through is over and i can fly fly fly and disappear somewhere and have a good break.

oh 2011 is also filled with weddings for me. lost count of how many i attended and was a bridesmaid for three times. old chinese grandmother tales "you will never get married if you are a bridesmaid for more than three times" how true i dont know but i hope it wont happen to me if not i will just grow old alone with my dog. #foreveralone

but that aside, i'm always very happy excited to attend weddings. especially if it's my best friend's. happy for them to be able to meet and spend the rest of their life with their soul mate. :)


someone came and left... all part of the package i guess..

and a new family member at home.. MY DOG! she is technically not my dog, but my bro's ex and so they broke off. moral of the story, dont ever get a pet especially a dog/ cat when you are dating. kinda unfair to the animal. so now she is staying at my home. it's totally unplanned and very unexpected because mum strongly object to us having a dog at home. she is a clean freak btw she cannot stand the thought of her fur flying around, etc. but guess what is the baby of my family now. everyone even dad is so in love with her. thank her for bringing lots of joy into our life especially mum and dad and a companion to my grandma when one is at home with her.

manged to fulfilled one new year resolution i made (: i'm a volunteer! volunteered with 2 different organisation and still doing and loving it now.

met, have fun and get to know even more awesome friends/ volunteers....

and of course thankful for friends/ families who stayed with me always...


they are indeed the best gifts ever given to me. (:

i guess that pretty sum up my 2011 and again can 2012 please be a good year for everyone? less disasters but more happiness, love, laughter and good health.

2012

Happy 2012! All you fabulous people out there.

For those who have yet to embark on fulfilling their goal/ dream. GO FOR IT and stop thinking if you are still unsure and scare. Dont waste time by thinking. Just do it and I bet you will be amazed with what you achieved. You only live once and getting older each year.

For those who are thinking of giving up.. Don't ever do that but press on! Remember all these challenges that you are facing now will not bring you down BUT make you a stronger and better person! So hang in there and you will see your sunshine and rainbow soon.

For those who are lost... I always believe that whatever things that we are going through now will somehow link up with the 'big plan' for you. So try to find meaning in what you are doing, enjoy the process and you will eventually understand and find your way out. BE POSITIVE.

For those who are very happy, positive and contented with everything in their life now... I'm really happy for every good things that's happening in your life now and I think you should go out and spread some joy and love to others. Share your positive experiences with friends, families or even strangers! Encourage and inspire them! Everyone needs someone to support and be there with them. Trust me, it's a joy to give.

And for myself.. Remember to always be happy, positive and contented. Dont forget to bring joy, laughter and love to everyone I meet. (:

2 more days to 2012.

screw you 2011! you sucks big time!!

should i come out with new year resolution? although half the time i forgotten what i set... oh well.. 2 more days left to think about what i wanna achieved in 2012. driving license? but i still preferred to be driven around. hehe. lasik for my eyes?? but after watching final destination im pretty freaaaak out. crap

but there is something which i really want to find.....

many are saying that the world is ending in 2012. how true i dont know but with all those never ending natural disasters happening in other countries you can never predict what's going to happen next too. and im really thankful to be staying in singapore at least what we are experiencing here is nothing compared to what others are suffering from like the flood in bangkok, the earth quake in christ church, etc. RIGHT?
the smile on your face.

will always end up smiling to myself whenever i look at their pictures. it's true when they say you end up receiving even more when you give. :)

But still had a great time with them laughing at our own jokes and all. (:
Merry Christmas my dear friends. May 2012 be a fantastic year for you filled with endless laughter, love and joy.

PROJECT "I DO!"

sharing some behind the scenes messages!

so last weekend we helped lawrence for his proposal to his superduperyummy gf sabrina! the plan was held in MBS! so weeks ago, i ke siao told everybody that i managed to get a discounted rate for MBS room and check with them if they are free to spend a night there with me. and since it's during sab's annual leave period naturally she agreed!

so our plan for the day, we (simon, bun, lawrence, jean and daniel) will all meet 3pm at MBS to check out the room first and plan how to decorate. while sabrina will meet us at 5pm after her dance.

1st round of 'surprise' - HER DANCE CANCELLED!! CUI.

so she changed her plan to go church with lawrence. but we need lawrence to check in at MBS so i started pouring out random ideas to stop her from meeting lawrence.


and the groom to be got really nervous with the various 'surprises'...


the need to remind everyone not to reply at the wrong chat group as we were all chatting with the 'victim' at another place. if not confirm CUI!! hahaha


anyway everything went well in the end even though we had a few heart attacks... but most importantly she agreed!!! when everything ended, we sat down together and shared about the various hiccup that happened. had a great time laughing at our silliness. hahaha. (:

10 random facts about me.

no 1.

my name was actually li shiqi but changed it when i made my IC. someone told my dad that my old name was really bad for me and caused me to have really bad temper. thinking back, i was pretty bad in the past. shouting and quarreling with parents and my bro were definitely norm. she told my dad it will be better for me to change the chinese character instead. you know how anal things are for chinese tradition. anyhow i changed it to lee ziqi. no idea did the change of name impact me in anyway but i guess my temper is not as bad as before? and i can safely say im a very patient person tooo?? lol

anyway, at a later part of my life, i got myself a english name chloe because a lot of people can never pronounce my name properly and they pronounce it as zee kee instead of zi qi. so right now my name is lee ziqi chloe. it's so much easier to introduce myself now although there are still people pronouncing chloe as chole or kio or even lorry. CUI

no 2.

i'm actually really shy with strangers but turn into a different person when people i'm comfortable with are around. i'm actually a very loud and crazy person that laugh at the lamest thing. i'm laughter is scary. sometimes i dont feel comfortable going out with people i dont really know because i drag awkward silence during conversation! i'm happy when the other party i'm going out with is someone who loves to talk because most of the time i prefer to listen. :D

no 3.

i love to sing loudly and shout like crazy in office...... and i think my colleagues secretly hate me for that. oops my colleagues love to ask me "eh you didnt take your medicine today is it?"

no 4.

i spent most of my sunday sleeping on my sofa and watching random drama. and i can spent the whole day there eat, shit, sleep and never even bother to shower. HAHAHA. i avoid going out on sunday because i feel the need to recharge before monday is here again. when my friends asked me out on sunday, i will come out with 101 excuses to reject them unless really bo pian like special event then i will drag my arse out to meet them. so dont ask me out on sunday yea.

no 5.

i love to read but read lesser now because i'm really addicted to facebook and twitter, constantly checking it and reading it machiam newspaper. first thing when i open my eyes TWITTER FOLLOWED BY FACEBOOK. bought lots of books but lots of them still unread. went to the library and borrow even more books. wtf right i know! wrong choice to get a smartphone.. too big a distraction.

no 6.

i'm actually really afraid of dogs but i have one at home now and really loving her more and more each day. amazing yea? love overcome all crap!

no 7.

when i'm quiet and not talking it means i'm either really too tired and not in the mood to entertain or something is bothering me big time and pissing me off. so stop trying to provoke me further.... my work really drain lots of my energy especially after an event (jumping around getting high and talking to people), i will prefer to just sit down alone and not talk anymore.

because i'm always talking, joking and laughing so when i'm quiet my friends will think that it's really weird and make remarks like "EH DONT EMO LEH!" come on! im a human too.. i have my limitations. i cant be hyper all day long.

no 8.

i love to volunteer and really hope my future other half will be someone who has the same interest as me and of course willing to do it together with me. you really get to see another side of the person when you volunteered. and i'm always happy to see the good side and that everyone is capable of loving a stranger. (: and i'm attracted to caring guys! guys who have a big heart! HAHAHA. i learn that it's important to have comment interest yea! :D sometimes i secretly wish my buddies will join me as well.. it will be really awesome if they can understand the things that i'm really passion about.

no 9.

i ran out of things to say.........
maybe i should just change it to 8 things instead of 10.

vivian's day!

celebrated Vivian's birthday at MELT - The World Cafe @ mandarin. one of my favourite place for buffet dinner even though it's really expensive at 98++ per pax. will only go there during special occasion.. too expensive for my pocket on normal days. haha. seafood there is awesome and they are really generous with their oysters, crabs, lobsters, etc. service is good too!

decided to bring her there to celebrate her birthday since she is a fan of seafood too and i have no idea what present to get her. so a nice dinner always works!

some selection of cooked food. they have food in different country like indiaaaa...
pasta is nice too!

and they even give you a complimentary cake when they know that you are celebrating birthday!

happy birthday airen. thank you for always being such a great friend to hang out with. :)

1st december!

somehow i really can't wait to say goodbye to 2011. 1 more month...

2011 is not exactly a good year.. it's filled with heartbreaks and sad news. gfs ended their long time relationship with their 'other half', news of relatives/ friends leaving us. HOW SAD RIGHT? but i think partly because i'm grounded and didnt get to travel at all and that really sucks.. being stuck here and even when you clear your leave there is nowhere to go..

but it's not exactly really bad either because lots of my friends/ buddies tied their knots with their other half. <3
and i got myself a new companion! my little bun :D

anyway i'm really looking forward to 2012 because i know there is going to be some major changes to my current life. like going on a long long voluntary trip something which i'm always thinking about and since i'm still single it's the best time to go :P, no one to worries about except my family of course. i hope i will be able to make the right decisions and go through it all without any regret.

turning 25 in 2012... too old to procrastinate anymore.
meantime enjoy the last bit of 2011.. let it be a fantastic one please. :)
