Goodbye Malaysia, Hello Singapore (again).

Hey all,

It's been a while.. and yes indeed it was tragedy what happened to my beloved cat.
I still miss him EVERYDAY. pfft...

Well, loads have happened... changes in all areas... family, love, work.

Quick update on Family - we have our beloved Caden Lo joined our crazy family... he's soooo adorable - he's making his way to win everyone's heart... here's a picture of him:


Love - will update once it's confirmed. :)

Work - well.. as many of you have known.. I am leaving Msia (again) - yes.. I'm heading over to our neighboring country - Singapore! The land of the lions...

I am grateful for every single individual that has touched my life here in KL. It's been a rough, crazy, exciting journey for me since I've moved from Singapore. Indeed... I've survived through some crazy journey involving Exciting yet Dangerous moments of my life. There are soooo many people in which I would love to say "Thank you" so much to.

Family:
Bro's & Sis-in-law's - Thank you all for the lovely Sundays, it is the BEST way to spend Sundays - with 3 of us together - we talk crazy shit - and we laugh all our stress away. This is THE best medicine ever... and I will miss you all sooooo much - especially Sundays .. now it would be very lonely for me in Singapore. I promise to visit more often since it's so near. Once I've settled in, you are all welcome to come over here :)

Mom - Thank you so much for being a mother to me, being my best friend to me as well. You know I love you SOOO much! Yes, I know you would worry about me no matter how old I am. I will stay strong and healthy. (I'll try!) Don't miss me so much now - and please... go out and find yourself the MAN that you've always dreamed about. ^_^ Love you mom! Singapore is very near - and I know you would be moving over (soon I hope). It's your choice. :)

Colleagues:
Team Malaysia - I've said all my goodbyes (individually) to you all - but here is the summarized version - I LOVE YOU ALL no matter what! Stay strong and kick ass! Someday, our path would cross each other again... I'll miss each one of you - and it's only YOU all that makes this Team Malaysia AWESOME! I'll make Team Malaysia Proud :)

Awesome Friends:
Animal Club - Heya.. I'll be spending my last Saturday Night with you folks - and no matter what... we've grown up sooo much, I still hope that our friendship stays strong. I've missed our trips where we get lost and drunk for FUN. But hey, we're all adults now - some of us are.. ;p Will miss you all especially Sue Ling, Jarett, Bernard... :)

Lions Club - Har! I've been missing in action - I know.. and I do apologize... Great to see you guys finally active in Facebook ^_^ woot woot! Thanks so much for your constant understanding and love... Please do take care! Keep in Touch!

VVIP Chat - Hi guys, you are all my BFF's :) Thank you sooo much for the crazy support and love you've given to me since donkey years... (GIS?) Love you all soooo much! Nana/Mich - I will see you in SG more often ... Howie/Veron - I will miss you both very much - once I've settled in to SG and get my Mobile stuff fixed up - I should be having iPhone ... then pls add me on VVIP Chat. Thanks for everything - putting up with my endless love stories... no 1, 2, ....

To Jolene From Chai Chai

Dear Jolene,

I thank you for everything there is for me, you took me from a cage where I was going to be put to sleep when I was just about 1 year old. I still remember your foot - the best part that I very love to manja on.

I remembered our 1st Christmas together - I still remember how I slept on your hair to feel safe sleeping at night. I was so scared of the scary sounds in the air - which you all call it Fireworks. I remember you even held me tight asking me to see it. That was scary - I thought the whole world was falling down.

I remember you bought me a lion - and say - this will be your best friend and he will protect me at night so I can sleep. I also remember those time where I would try to wake you up to work - you're a tough one to wake up. I've tried licking your face - and then you had sheet to cover. I've tried slapping your glasses to you - you hid them away. I've tried biting your toes to wake you up - you tucked it the sheets. I've tried tapping on your laptop so it would make sound like an alarm - you muted the sound. I've tried scrapping off your keyboards - I manage to take off "C", "3" and "P" - (no it's not a mystery) - but you close the lid off. But I seriously hope you can wake up by yourself now. :)

The truth is - I've watched you grown up in all these 6 years... I have became your safety zone - where you know when you're sad - I am always here for you. I would just rest my head on your hand - and I can see your little smile underneath all the sadness and tears. You have become a little like a "MAMA" to me. Your aunt noticed that I don't "MEOW" - but it's more like I'm calling you "MAaaa" funny huh. I wish I could talk more - but I can only blog.

We've had our moments - where you were soo angry at me - when I accidently poo'ed on your bed. You went away sooo long - and I missed you - and then I felt like I needed to poo... (I know I know - no excuse). Every time you hit my butt - it felt good - coz it proves you still care about me.

I love it when you are working - I jump on this space between your face and the laptop so you could kiss me gently on my head. That's the best part that I will always remember - it almost felt like I need that EVERYDAY.

Mama, please know that I love you and I will always love you no matter where I am.


In loving memories, signing off for good ...
Yours Truly,
Chai Chai

KL: The loving cat Chai Chai, whose body was found at the floor with extreme head injuries, slipped off from 6th Floor - passed away on the hand of the owner while driving to the nearest Clinic on Jan 03, 2011. The family will miss him dearly - we will all pray for him - Rest In Peace Chai Chai.

Ending 2010. Starting 2011

I’m glad that 2010 is going to end soon – can’t wait to 2011. It’s gonna be great!


2010 has been great year for me - it's been up and down, no dull moments. Family is great, my elder brother had our first ever generation of Lo's - he's adorable. He's now on my phone wallpaper to make me smile. My younger brother has gone off to college, and living the TEENAGE dream - has a beautiful girlfriend and so loving. Mom is great - she's so independent now - I am so proud of her. As for Chai Chai - the man of my life - he's still adorable and cute in his very own way.


Work's been great - closed a few big deals - got to see how politics work in a big company. Career path is on track - we've got a great leader who inspires me. I love that.


Love - it's just so messy - it's hard to understand. So many times - I felt sooo lost, felt like a hypocrite, felt like a slut, every single feeling there is - I felt it. But you know what? It made me stronger and more matured. It has built me up to be like a robot - I feel like I could never love again. Am I wrong to say that I don't believe in love? Maybe the time is not right, maybe I've not met the right guy. So many excuses were put out there for me to feel better. On this note - I am thankful for all my friends who are always there for me. Friends who laugh with me on my ugly side, friends who hugs me when I needed it.


People, I will love again one day - trust me - and when that day comes, it is Love, Faith and Hope that I would be thankful for. Without my friends and family - there will not even be the 3 elements that I could hold onto. To everyone who has touched my life in every different way - from the bottom of my heart - Thank You. Thank you soo much for loving me.


Happy New Year!

With lots n lots of love,

Jolene :)
