Family, Friends and The Earth

I love my family and friends and my Earth

My weekend can be considered well-spent with those I love. It was clubbing at Bar None with Sarah and Shumin on Saturday (it was Pam's birthday party and I brought those two party animals along for some fun)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAM! (though I dunno if you read this)


Was intending to head to New Asia Bar / MOS after the party, but we were having too much fun drinking, dancing and socialising with Pam's friends that we stayed at Bar None and Living Room until 4am. Was introduced to Edwin Yeo, a used to be journalist. Apparently he used to gave us a lecture when I was still at CMM, but i completely can't recall that lecture at all. Anyway he is now running a PR company and I cheekily asked about whether there was any job offering.

And things start rolling out that probably PR is not the way for me as I do not have much experience in the media industry. Been in the hospitality industry since graduation probably have not been a very smart move for me. But I have not looked back since. Choice been made and I am sticking by it. Anyway work is just as transition period. But choosing a relevant job is important. So morale of the story: DO NOT COMPROMISE.

After such a tiring night, I only woke up at ard 2 / 3 pm and watch Live Earth. And I was so lucky to catch Madonna. Love her man, she is so damn cool. Really an icon over the eras. Anyway I was really inspired by all the artistes' performances, the commercials and the short films. Feel that the whole publicity of this event done by Ch5 is really good, however publicity in newspapers are probably lacking by alot. This event super reminded of my 1st job after graduation which is public relations for an non-existent event - Listen Live. So sad my event never took off in Singapore but so happy that the concept has taken its life in Live Earth. I really feel that more of such events should be organized to gather the world together for a common cause. Go to liveearth.org to find out more and do your bit to save our dying earth. Oh ya, and switch off that light you are not using.

Last night was truly the highlight of my week, because I finally spent time with my family! We had a crab zhi char dinner at Punggol and I really feel very blessed to have the chance to have dinner with my family. Can't remember when was the last time I actually sat down with them to eat a meal together. Must be CNY... so sad right? We bought durians and walked home from Punggol with it and talked alot. I finally did that long overdue facial for my mum and sister too! I kept really quiet when my parents was saying we should be doing this every weekend. I really wish I can, but if I got more impt priorities I've gotta go fulfill those first before I can be with my parents 24/7. Ever since I have joined Amway, I really really really wished my parents are fighting on the same line as me, so that it won't be so tough and we can go overseas together within the next 2 years too. I wish for that day to come real soon!
