Goodbye 2012, welcome 2013

Time sure feels like it flies by as you are getting older...I dono if this happened to you before.. When I was young, I wish I grew up faster and eager to tell people that I'm 20 yrs old... When I was at that age, I was proud to tell ppl my age when asked...but now, when asked, I pretend I couldn't count, i pretend I have amnesia, I change subject and worse of all, people feel bad for asking *sweat*

Well, i just have to accept and face the reality... Haha... The more u want to escape, the more it will haunt u... Hehe

Well, 2012 is gonna be a past tense after today... I remember when I was still in primary school, we had to write dates on the top right hand corner.. It was always sad to need to write a different year.. And kept forgetting in the first few days.. It doesn't happen anymore coz dates these days appear automatically~

2012 is another year to be appreciated that my loved ones are healthy and happy... I didn't go for any new yr resolutions anymore...instead, I think as long as family and friends are healthy and happy, I'm happy ;) when people start to get older *ahem ahem* we tend to appreciate different things~ oh dear, im just pretending to be older, that's it *ssshh*

Happy new year to my friends and family... Wish all of you another year of health and happiness~~

Travel drama

Now I realize why people complain when things don't go their way... That evening when I was rushing, I complain silently in my mind that shanghai traffic is terrible (even though it is true but i kinda magnify the problem that day), I complained why everyone had to leave at this hour, I complained why the subway driver's hand couldn't move faster, why the subway couldn't go faster.. Etc... It seemed to be everyone's fault but mine! Well, if only I questioned the driver's estimation, if I left earlier, maybe it would be a different story~ no story for my friends, no excitement for my friends... Hehe.. I wish there was a magic door or superman.. Hahaha

Well...I made it to the flight! Phew.. Managed to check in at 720pm and board at 740pm... Phew, that was close! Turned out there was someone else like me too and we both ran like hell... I think we were faster than the Olympic gold winner..

下次要注意料〜好險(。-_-。)

Did I make it?

It's been a long time since my last travel drama..it must have been more than two years since I left my last job. Honestly, sometimes I still miss the traveling part... Well, I thought I had gone thru a lot of drama already in the past and nothing would scare me anymore... Well, I'm very very wrong!

I love this time of the year because many people go on vacation.. I didn't take long vacation like what I usually would do before I changed job, so this time, I decided to take a day off and travel somewhere~ yay~~~

Weather lately in shanghai was pretty bad.. Foggy, wet and cold. Yesterday, I went to work in Suzhou which is an hour drive from shanghai..no idea how far it is from the airport so I asked our co driver.. He told me I could leave at 430pm since my flight was at 8pm. I accepted without questioning~ after all this is his area of expertise~~~

Things went on as normal and it was time to leave at 430pm. I was excited abt my trip until the moment I sat in the car. It turned into nervousness when the driver told me I might not b able to make it coz traffic is very bad due to weather, long weekend etc... My heart sank and asked the driver to help drive faster.... no matter what this was out of her control...I quickly checked the airline number in the airport just in case~~

I prayed~ oh, traffic was ok at first until we reached shanghai. We were surrounded by 4 lines of car and there were trucks, buses around us, I have no idea where we were and no idea how long the high way was...there was no way out! We moved like tortoise. I realized when u r nervous, your line seem to always moved the slowest..and after u switched to the line that was moving faster, it became slower and your earlier line seem to move faster...is this illusion? The driver told me we would be stuck for 3km, and after tat we will be stuck for 30km and the rest of 30km would be good @_@

So I called airport and asked to change my seat to nearer airport, Rejected. There's only limited flight going from Sh to tpe..if I missed this, it would be a gone case. I must make it, I must make it!!!

After being rejected, I asked the lady if the flight would be delayed (hoping there were ppl like me who got stuck in traffic due to bad weather), she said no...*disappointed* then I asked could they wait for me coz I was stuck in very bad traffic and I told her what happened...the lady advised me not to travel by car, asked me to go to the nearest subway station and then take airport express...it was 530pm. I asked if we could make it coz subway is slow~ she told me it is much better than car and should be able to make it... So I followed her advice...

I ran and I ran...15 stops to airport express..it was 610pm when I took subway...again, everything moved so slow when u felt nervous... The ppl got in too slow, train door opened n closed too slow, distance between stops was too far etc etc.. Well, there was nothing I could do anymore... Pray pray~

Did I make it to my flight? TO be continued........

my life

hey, when you go through my blog, have you ever think that you have been accompanying me throughout the past x yrs? i couldnt remember when i started writing my blog...should be around 2006...gosh, it's SIX years...can't believe it..time just flew by like that...you will realize i have written something happy, something sad, something funny, something serious...it's all what happened in my life for the past 6 years...CONGRATULATIONS, you have been in my life for 6 years...hehehehehe...for many of you, it's definitely more than 6 years as some relationship is hidden :p

well, i reread my blog and found that i have grown from a little girl to an old lady...hahaha...but im glad what life has taught me...as the years go by, i started to realise what i really want in life...it's just simple...HAPPINESS and people around me are happy...

i don't need too much money (just enough to spend and do what i want), no need a high position (coz i see how ppl suffer and gain from it..just fully depends on what you want out of life), no need an expensive car (just something that can bring you from one location to another), no need expensive clothes (just something comfy)...

hey, am i being 没有出息?ahaha...for ppl who have ambition, im 没出息,for ppl who are like me, it's life...hahaha...so, why do i care?
