Mars (March)

Bonjour!

Je suis Huda… Je vais parler francais un peu…

HAHA! Just playing around…

Yesterday was my last week for French class E1 – elementary 1… So next week will be a new term – E2… Time flies… and yesterday was good cause we played the taboo game in FRENCH! Not easy but definitely fun… I’m getting the hang of the vocabulary meaning I could recognise them more than remember… Next mission is memorize them…!

Went to HALL ONE MUSICAL PRODUCTION (NTU): Taking Flight produced by (MY BESTFRIEND!) Yuan Kai… hehe… Did a very good job for this one… everything came together very well! There were some sad, anger, frustration, happy and FUNNY moments… big twist in the end was a SURPRISE.. the lead actors and actresses were GREAT… and moreover accompanied by a dear dear friend SIU SIU! Lol =)

Its been long since we met and having long walks while chatting… We are so honest towards each other that having to spend 4 hours were not enough before separating our ways to go home… We were missing each other that much…

Then I had dinner with Priya on Wednesday at Ngee Ann City BREEKS… Simple dinner and i manage to have my ultimate fav brownie with ice cream…  discussed about what we are going to do with our lives and complain about each other miseries which include being single… LOL not that horrible la.. just that we need to vomit out the thought and feelings so as not to bottle it up… All in all we have to move on and just focus on the present career, families and friends… AND ALWAYS BE THANKFUL WITH HIM!

I have been wanting to catch up with a few more other friends… but we are trying our best to set a date and time hopefully we could do it soon… cause HULALA MISSES YOU!!! I miss Azizi, Neuh, Kai, Juna and Ev-vy!!! =( can we can weeeeeee….. meet soon?

2012 launches like a rocket… Its already coming to MARCH! Haiz… time is catching up like crazy… next week im already going Brunei for work again… then maybe CHINA, THAILAND, VIETNAM, MALAYSIA and soon EUROPE…

April is not that far too… meaning I will be moving to a new office… =)

Weird Dream

I had a weird dream…

I was being intimate… Not with any guy, or any of my favorite artists… But a guy who I recognize… Moreover I have never imagined acting that way with him… Couldn’t see his face at first as dreams are usually like that… But yeah I manage to see clearly after some time…

Not sure why.. But it happened…

Jan oh so fast

Fevrier… that’s February in French…

Learning French more intense now cause am officially attending classes so to be tutored properly and of course certified. The company sponsored me to learn French so I can converse better with the people im working with. It’s quite easy learning the numbers, alphabets and simple vocabularies that you usually learn when you’re a kid. But it’s becoming harder to cope cause you have memory work plus understanding the grammar usage. The feminine and masculine including plural are making it all complicated… luckily I have Frenchies in the office to help me with…

Have been helping out Yuan Kai schooling in NTU, producer of a Hall Production. He kinda need someone to help with some choreographing for musical actors and actresses. Traveling all the way to boon lay and back to pasir ris is making me restless the following day at work… I can so understand Neuh~

Met up with my poly mates lately… had 3 catching up sessions… one during dinner cum kinect xboxing session at Siu Ling’s crib, second one to send off Kel for his internship in Jamaica… Until now I have not heard any news… just a status “its very different” then lastly we met up last weekend for a dinner cum car ride… its been some time that we hang out as a group cause usually I met them separately and its fun when we’re chilling together…

Chinese New Year flew pass like a rocket… Even though I did not travel this year…

• Friday gathered with the polymates to send off Kel
• Saturday Class as usual then head home
• Sunday Relatives from Malaysia came over and overnight
• Monday send them off and spend time with Family
• Tuesday being lazy at home (highlight of my CNY)

Got a message from Carynn (Producer & CK the co-producer for FB Production 2012) that she needs my help for production, so I came down for the 1^st choreographers meeting to discuss about the theme… No definite storyline yet but we are definitely looking for something fresh this year and still processing…

Was just reading Aaron’s blog and I like the post berry much that I am re-posting it here.

 

“Don’t try to be someone your not.”

That is the golden rule.

It’s simple enough to follow through & easy enough to execute.

Having a certain sense of self-awareness to know who you are and of what your capable of helps you in understanding yourself better. It is individuals who are truly honest with themselves who remain genuine to their natures, regardless of external influences.

Like most people,  I too have developed my own personal set of rules. A certain “code of conduct” if you will, to which I choose to live my life and base my decisions upon. Some of these rules protect me from others, while some of them protect others from me…

To question everything is my virtue.

It is what provokes me to stand against what I suspect is wrong, and empowers me to engage in what I believe is right.

Compromising who you are is the worst possible thing to do. You could try to be someone your not, you could pretend to be different around someone you care about. But you can’t be two people at once, you’ll end up hating them more than you’ll ever love them.

It is the sad reality of human nature..

Have you heard about the story? About the Scorpion & the Frog?

The aim here is to see yourself for who you are & what you can be, as well as what you can not. I am capable of benevolence to which I do not share, and of horrible things to which I need not hide.

It has taken me awhile to understand these terms but I realize now where I belong & what I must do…

Enlightened much…

Anyways cao! I is going over to NTU again to help out… remember everyone will love you for who you are…!

2012

I have things that I want to do for you but doing it will be another issue… I would want to focus on preparation of my future… like Work, Family and maybe a BF? LOL..

Recently, bought a life insurance for myself.. and made me calculate how much i am worth… it may sound crude to but that’s what financial planning is i guess…? Realise I do not have savings (like a proper one).. I want to save but its hard cause my mood to spend is stronger…

so i just have ONE Resolution!

to be FINANCIAL STABLE! this one goal includes me being wise in spending, work harder (more money), able to enjoy to a certain extend and also travel to Swiss!

i know i may sound very optimistic… but sometimes i do crack and fall… the graph always drawn everything goes up must always come down however i hope that i wont hit too hard to the ground and do my best =)

Following up with my previous resolution… I am not there yet… 2011 flew so fast especial after June… things falls into place and everything seems to sail through quickly…

Work have been great… Opportunities for me to learn is never stopping and I am starting a new year by taking French lessons sponsored by the company so I have better communication with my colleagues in France… Travelling is a requirement now for my job as the market demand outside Singapore is increasing…

I have my highs and lows with the family, I think I am maturing and mindsets are surely clashing cause we have our own ways on doing things… Sometimes I have several conflicts with my parents and siblings much lesser just a few hiccup here and there… But we ended the year well in KOREA! We spent the end of the year and starting of the year in a good way…

BF? Still no…

Why? I don’t really know…  I think I suck at love…

I liked a guy for quite a long time and then gave up after failing to get his attention… Then I moved on to get to know some guys but there isn’t any chemistry… I am still having faith but its beginning to slip off with much disappointment… lets hope 2012 is the year for me… im freaking 25! DAMN~

FINANCIALLY STABLE? Almost there… Im saving more for my travelling needs but nothing for the future… Cause maybe I don’t see any purpose to save? I understand this is not a very good attitude but why keep so much when I have no purpose of it… at least when I use the money to travel I am making myself happy to enjoy the moment…

One resolution I definitely achieve was TRAVELLING TO EUROPE! Hehe!

I manage to go to Switzerland too! France and Italy! AWESOME! It wouldn’t have been possible with the company’s invitation for my training in France and having Neuh to plan the Europe trip together… THANK YOU!

When the year of 2011 starts to slip away… I became closer to some people and drifted away from some… I pray and hope that it doesn’t drift any further cause I really treasure the friends I have~

I feel weak at times to the extent I feel that I am not good enough to be around friends… I guess I am punishing myself…

Yearly we had our ups and downs therefore we always need to grow stronger to lift our chin up high to prepare for more obstacles…

Although I sound optimistic now… but most of time I’m quite negative with my thoughts…

So resolution for the year of 2012! SIMPLE! I think everyone will know this…

TO BE IN A RELATIONSHIP!

Not too desperate but allowing more time to fulfill this part of my life… if it happens it happens… if not then its just not the time yet…

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Today we did a lot of touring in Jeju Island! Definitely interesting and exciting day to spent my last day in the year of 2011!

Went to like almost 11 places… Including breakfast, lunch and dinner restaurants… Did not do much shopping since we have to transfer another 3 more hotels inclusive of 1 more domestic flight back to Incheon….

But I still manage to buy something! Truly unexpected and damn excited for it… Hehe! Already loving it!

It’s going to be a quiet midnight countdown for me this year… Cause the concert is a little too far us to return after wee hours… So we just countdown from watching tv… And is still awesome cause i am able to watch many Korean Channels…. NICKHUN look SO HANDSOME in white suit and he is hosting together with  6 kpop artists…

I’m truly thankful for where I am now…. Physically, mentally, emotionally and psychologically… 2011 is definitely a blast for me as I am blessed with happiness and health… I would like to highlight that 2011 is THE YEAR! Goals were achieved and more life changing experiences to come…

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! And 2012 I’m ready for you!

30th December

Spending the first night in Korea in certainly needed time to get use to! Upon arrival in Incheon International Airport thinking it will be cold but apparently we underestimate it… It was SOOOOO COLD… Temperature was -7, immediately we wore all the winter clothing we had in our hand carry…

Had 4 hours before our next domestic flight to Jeju Island… We had breakfast take a look around the Incheon city… Visited the ice gallery while trying to learn the ice carving skill… Then went to visit the famous big castle and the President’s Blue House… Awesome…

Took e flight to Jeju Island… Arrive in the evening just nice for us to have a typical Korean dinner… interesting experience indeed cause there were a lot of side dishes and good fish…

We are staying in Jeju Grand Hotel…. Nice place and very accessible to shops… So we managed to take a peek around before going to bed….

HO HO HO!

I don’t celebrate Christmas as a religion… just a form of excuse i use to gather, have a party and have fun~ i understand that the christians celebrates this special day for the birth of Jesus… but hey many countries have already commercialise this particular celebration…

It is a time where the F&B industry are having promotion and shopping is MADNESS here! CRAZY! I avoid orchard road especially to be in the HUMAN TRAFFIC JAM~ unless no choice i have to fetch my mum (less likely to be in the jam)… I do my shopping mainly in heartland malls or Airport… LOL

So manage to shop for 2 exchange gifts events happening during Christmas eve and bought a few candies + chocolates for my students =)

Had my usual dance lessons every Saturday and then we had gift exchange after the class with a few of my close students… quite funny how it turned out… all in all… is for fun!

Had potluck Christmas dinner at Eunice’s place… i baked brownie and to be eaten with ice cream… Went there straight after my class… there were so much food and we couldn’t finish it…!

It was fun to catch up with everyone and knowing the things that we talked about eventually change as we grew… =) but we never fail to reminiscing about our dance life in poly… those were the times…

 

Random Wednesday

At a point you feel helpless… You are not sure of what to do… You realize it’s something you need to think about… And you need put in some effort… To no avail you realize chances are slipping away slowly… You are not sure what to do anymore…

You maybe the best politician but it doesn’t mean you will live with everyone loving you…

Kuching

Kuching is the capital city of Sarawak, Malaysia’s largest state situated on the island of Borneo.

Kuching’s name is originated from many sources. In the Malay language, Kuching means cat. Some say that Kuching originated from the Chinese word “Gu Chin” which means harbour. Others may say say that Kuching is named after a longan like fruit called Mata Kuching (Cat’s eye).

Reached in the morning at Kuching International Airport… Our agent fetched us from there to their office and then meeting with the customer… After a long day we had a good lunch at a local hawker having something different…

Ayam Penyet Briyani

It rained quite heavy late afternoon before our flight back to KL… We did not manage to stick around to have a look… so it was only a quick stop…
