i went for my 1st sensory evaluation today!should have chose something nicer to evaluate but it was chicken broth.after 3 samples my mouth felt overloaded with the strong smell of chicken soup.best is they didn't give descriptors!and erm i couldnt think of anything to write under the 'taste-like' column because i felt like writing chicken for all of them.i think i wrote crappy stuff man.12samples is seriously too much.i could differentiate the milk ones at the previous evaluation i prepared perfectly fine.cos im more familiar with sweet goods rather than savoury's descriptors.waaah i should choose my evaluations carefully next time.but i doubt i'll have another chance.hope there'll be.
cheers to my last day in the 2man(or rather women) room with a cluttered table and a laptop in front of me.
actually i kind of feel yiyibushe.haha.
ja.

aha my slack day.nice in a way but i think i'll get extremely bored by tmr.
3 day training course for my boss + one of the system is under maintainance = 1 slack today + 2 more most-likely-slack-days.
too bad i cant watch jap dramas here.if not i wont mind being slack.esp when im having monday blues due to slack of slp.i half thought it was still the wkends when my alarm rang haha.
happy working/studying/playing people!
ja(:

ha im blogging from work again.which is going to end in 10min lol.
realised the busier my boss is, the freer i am.because she's "too busy to talk to me" as she puts it.so lala i've been slacking for quite some time.
did my 1st evaluation ytd.pretty fun(:preparing the samples the day b4 to age it overnight cos im doing vanilla flavour in milk base.the dosage have to be really precise so i was trying(and failing alittle)to be exact.really not easy when the electronic weighing machine weighs up to 3dp precision.and the reading fluctuates like mad lol.there were leftovers after the pros tasted them so i could taste them as well.pretty good,some of the flavours.makes me happy drinking them.
went to company new year lunch today.sat with the attachment students and guess who else.the 4 bigshots of the company.and of everyone the biggest of them all was sitting beside me.i was like o.o. quite freaky.but they were really nice pple la.and super interested abt the chinese traditions etc(they're obviously not Chinese).
alright im going home!in a happy mood today cos im really slack.besides drafting 5emails though,break record la.haha.

i thought it was a show that was pretty romantic but alittle cliche and fantasy-like.like you could redo everything you regretted.and it made the future better somewhat.so unrealistic.
it wasnt.
im sure eveyone have their regrets in life.i should have done this,i shouldnt have done that.
but there's only 1 shot at life.you choose how you want to live it.even if u went back in time,are you sure you would have done it differently?perhaps not.because this is me.perhaps much as i would have wanted it this way maybe i'll still end up as i am now.
tmr i'll do it,tmr i'll definitely do it.until now i still havent done it.sure happens to me.it's man's nature not to cherish something until you lose it.time,friends,opportunities,etc.
one regret im sure some of you know,is that i didnt continue my path in music.for my 2 yrs in jc i probably touched my piano seriously for less than 10times.no time?excuses,again typical of Man.
this story, did not make use of wad happened when he went back into the past, to make him less regrettable.maybe just alittle,but it showed that the present,is wad changes the future.it's wad you do now, to make decisions that make you forget your past regrets.learn from past mistakes,and live the present well.
ah,did i mention the show is proposal daisakusen.
+ val-* @ 9:06 PM
PROPOSAL DAISAKUSEN!!!a.k.a. operation love<3!
it's super interesting!
ha im on jdorama again.now that i reach home earlier and it's the wkends(:
finished kurosagi which is pretty nice as well(:kind of liar game plus tantei-gakuen q combined.
happened that the male lead is the same for both shows lol.but the character's very much different.so it's alright(:
日本のドラマが好きだよ！

and so valentine's day passed without the usual frantic search for friends and juniors to pile chocolates and little sweet gifts onto.1 nicely-wrapped chocolate from an NUS attachment student and a few msges..scarce as they were during CNY.
that's no school for you.
and so 'happy valentines' is merely a statement for a day with a special date that passed just like any other 364 days.

eek finally have time to blog during workhours.actually i still have things to do but umm i was instructed halfway and she's busy now.aiyo im really a muddlehead.did something wrongly and had to redo it=/ working for her a pretty confusing.i hope im tuned to her frequency soon.but surprisingly i dont find working as boring as people feel.it's pretty okay actually.i'd say going to sch has abt the same feeling but of course there are more chit-chatting with frens(:
btw i heard A level results are coming out this wk or next wk!!AHHH!!it's hearsay so far though.hope the new report it soon.
okay gotta work.ciao!

cny is kind of over for me.no more visitations tmr.
it's surprisingly less of a hoo-haa this yr.lesser smses..lesser visitations..lesser festive mood.
but more heartwarming.
somehow everyone is present this yr.as one big family for both sides.and i feel closer to my cousins then i ever felt in years.maybe cos everyone's more grown up already.no more of that awkwardness(:and in that small houses of both sides' grandparents it felt like a happy reunited family(:
so HAPPY CNY EVERYONE!hope all ur wishes come true and may all of u have a blessed yr ahead!

was supposed to work half day today but i succumbed to the protest of my screwed up body and infected throat.puked out my dinner after i took panadol ytd night argh.
speaking about panadols i took abt 18 in 4 days.quite crazy.for headache,fever and cramps.break any of my records man.
thank goodness i dont have to work till 12th feb.
but as it is, it sucks to be sick during CNY='(
+ val-* @ 12:02 PM
im whining with a smile.haha
i woke up at a freaking 645am which i havent done so for at least 3months.im stuck in front of a laptop sorting datas and drafting emails.excel sucks.it'll get better though.my boss's instructions are...pretty incomprehensible.haha.
but im lovin' it. (:
no im not complaining.haha.i like this job.probably it's the environment.i like the office.the faint scent of citrus mingling with sweet smelling substance.not weird,and faint enough to be a pleasant companion while i work my way through the evaluation table.
they have coffee tea and milo!in this lab like area haha.so cool!!i was still thinking i'll be starving since lunch is at 12 and my breakfast is at 645!haha.but in the end i was too engrossed in my work to feel hungry actually.
a lovely warm bowl of fish mee sua at vista with the mama gang(:super nice after a cold day in the office.they were talking abt prices of food all the time!and i thought working mothers talk abt diff things.and they were telling me not to mind them all the time.haha i seriously dont mind.quite interesting to know.can save money haha.
but time rockets in the office.soon it's lunch.soon it's 3..4..and 530!when i felt that i havent done anything much actually.feels good.time snails at my old workplace.
oh this is lame but my bladder feels good too.can go toilet whenever i want to.in my old workplace i have to ren3 for like dont know how long..super agonising.
and of course one last good thing is i reach home b4 630!!i use to reach home at 10 for my old job.i realised both i work for 9hrs..but this one is a one hr lunch break included(: AND i can save on public transport!except a bus to sengkang mrt every morning there's a shuttle bus there and back everyday!well i walk home when i come back cos it aint dark like in the morning and the sky's a nice colour(:super save money!haha u'll emphatise with me when u have to pay ur own transport fees man.it takes a big toll on wad i earned last month.
was abt to end my post here but i have just ytd to talk abt.
38.7. now it's 37.4.i tell u ytd night was the 1st time i saw my thermometer start from 37.5 str since primary school.yes that's how long i havent had a fever.i really freaked out man.no wonder i was feeling horrible from the morning.but my fren thought my forehead wasnt that warm.
then i went to the ntu talk with sam and guess what i saw kityeng reihorng and lekchia there!haha i was so surprised.i tell u we all frozed in the lecture theatre for 3hours.i had goosebumps on my arms and was shivering and my teeths were chattering like an idiot.even sam didnt look as cold as i did.was supposed to go for my sec4 class gathering after that but i figured it was too late and too sick to go for it.haiz i really miss them.and i wanted to be in the photos from ytd i'll start to see on everyone's blog.the distance kind of hurt.and i just had to have fever at that time=/
slpt at 8 ytd if u called my entire night slping.it was spent flipping the towel on my forehead over and over again and getting up quite a few times to re-soak it with cold water from the tap and sponging my arms legs and neck with it and taking panadol at 3am in the morning and some honey lemon for my horrible throat and eating bread cos the honey lemon made me hungry.so i slpt quite alot i guess besides doing those things.at least it paid off and my temp was 36.4 today morning.at least i was awake for work.but either my mind wasnt working properly or the boss isnt making sense.her instructions are really confusing.after she finish talking i still dont really get wad im supposed to do.haiz.hope tmr will be better.
btw im not working from 6-11 Feb.wad long break.sigh so little time left there.i really love it there.i hope someone quits during CNY.or something.i really want to work there.
lingering taste;
