Happenings

2007-10-07T03:11:00.000-07:00

안녕하세요! (Anneonghaseyo! = Hello!)

It has been awhile since i came back from my Hong Kong trip. It was really a shopping spree.

Next, i am gonna go Japan (일본) with my sister in coming Nov autumn. Trip has already been booked wit SA Tours. We will be going to T0kyo, Osaka, Kyoto, which includes Universal Studio, Mt Fuji & Disneyland. I have always wanted to go Japan, and now i have finally set a date to go, so happy! (But i will target to go Hokkaido the next time round!)

Now i am taking intermediate Korean (한국) class, but i'm still very poor with it haha. Too chim and lazy to memo all the vocabs...I wonder if i should still take Advance which consist of 3 levels...Or maybe i shld just switch to Jap class >.<"

I also wanna try to set up a small online business to sell some stuff like ladies bag for extra income. Well..no harm trying. In the midst of it now, just have to wait quite awhile before the goods arrive.. Wish me luck!

October month is a quite a happening month for me, gotta meet my team managers and bosses for dinner at Jumbo; attend EXSA award presentation to get my Silver award; meetup for colleagues' farewell dinner (so sad..); go chiong Double O with colleagues; go Halloween Party with a crazy theme "Pimps & Prostitutes"(alamak...).

I always feel that there are so many things that i wanna do but time always passes too fast, and weekends just past so quickly..

Anyway until the next posting... 안녕~(Anneong~= Bye~)

Confirmation!

2007-06-26T09:31:00.000-07:00

Yesterday i booked Royal Plaza Hotel superior room at Zuji.com. And today I just booked the Jetstar air tix online. Total 4Days 3 Nites trip. It cost us $608 each. Although it is not really very budget, i feel that it is still quite reasonable, as compared to the price quoted by the travel agency as the hotel is of a good review and the room not as small as many of HK's hotels. The hotel is also situated in Kowloon just walking distance from Mongkok MTR.

Our trip is finalised and confirmed, everything free & easy. Now its time to prepare our itinery. Its quite a short weekend trip, mainly for the shopping sales season, and to have a break from work. We are thinking of going Shenzhen but it may not be very safe for the 2 of us to go alone. Hmm..need to do some research and planning...

I will start doing that today (now 12.44am just past midnite) 'cos im on leave today!! ^^

Hah seems like everyone is rushing for the HK sales season...I already got 4 different friends i know who are going HK in July! One of them even going 2 times on same month!

Hong Kong & Korean

2007-06-23T20:52:00.000-07:00

I have finally signed up for my Korean language course at Cambridge Language Centre at Peninsular Plaza. It will be starting on 30th June every Sat from 2pm to 4.30pm. Very excited, i'm finally gonna learn a new language soon ^^. I signed up the course with my korea tour mates. I knew the 3 siblings (2 sis n 1 bro) when i went korea last Apr. This way, we can practice speaking korean with one another ^^.

Hong Kong is on sales now! I'm planning to go HK with my colleague Joyce. Hopefully Kelly is able to join us as well. Tentatively we are planning to go on 27Jul - 30 Jul. I am now searching for the best price for the accomodation and flight. So excited! Finally i'm going for my long awaited overseas trip again!!

Promotion!!!

2007-06-23T20:34:00.000-07:00

The team leaders are now Team Managers. And guess what?! I am promoted to Assistant Team Manager (ATM, not ATM machine hor)!

There are more work duties now and tend to OT more often. Alot of newer staff tend to approach me to ask questions and i have to help them. I enjoy helping people. However, sometimes when the team managers are not around, i have to handle complaints escalated by my other team members. It is quite a challenge. It is a good experience and it will be very beneficial to my personal portfolio. However, now i tend to be very busy and need to stay back to give approvals for waivers submitted by team members, which is alot...So everyday on the average, i will stay till nearly 8pm, and reach home about 9pm. After that eat dinner, bathe, by the time i settle down is around 10++pm. Means i only have little time left for recreation, cos nowadays i tend to sleep earlier and nod off in front of my pc.

My new designation letter is still pending. The financial year comes to an end soon, and hopefully there will be another yearly increment in July and big fat bonus in Sept. =D~

Increment!!! Yay!!!

2007-05-11T08:23:00.000-07:00

Today i was approached by my head of dept ans she asked me to give her 10mins to talk about something. Im was wondering what she is going to tell me, when she asked me to go to the mutipurpose room with her. She took out a letter and i stared at the paper, and she told me i got a special pay increment due to recent review in pay package. For existing staff only some of us will get it. I was so happy! Because i just left my shift team and forgo my shift allowance for my weekends and public holiday, now i got them all back!

Our company usually is on yearly increment basis based on our key performance index which is in July. Now i am looking forward to July's increment and Sept's bonus =D~ (drools...)

Now i got great urge to go Japan or Turkey & HK in later part of the year. Lets just see how and hope i save more $ by then.

Additionally, my dept head also asked me if i wanna take part in the CCAC, call centre award competition among all call centre ppl in SG. If they were to nominate me, i have to prepare presentation slides for presentation in front of a panel of judges and other ppl, and i have to be very confident in answering the questions that will be posted to me. Just last year, my team leader joined b4 he was promoted to a team leader, and he won the prize. He got trophies and recognition from other companies, and he was given a 1 year free Raffles Country Club membership by our management for the achievement. He was also later promoted to TL. Although i am not as confident enough to achieve all these, but i feel that it is a very good experience for me too, and i am happy that they want to nominate me for this.

I found that these are really good motivation factors for me. Well, let's see how it goes...

More updates

2007-04-17T08:31:00.000-07:00

Almost forgot to mention about 24 March, when i went Esplanade to watch Phantom of the Opera with Christin, Yiling, Huifang & her hubby & friend. Actually im not that into watching plays but Phantom is a very famous play and it has a touching story, hence i decided to watch it. It turned out to be very nice indeed. The props they used are very good..but the food they sold was super ex..its daylight robbery!

After the play, we went fo a drink at a chocolate shop (forgot the name) and i went for Call Centre's chalet at Aranda Country Club at Pasir Ris. I did not stay over the night as i have to go for the Maybank Club's "Amazing Race" the next day mornning. But i regretted for not staying because i had fun playing games with the other collegues and it was raining very heavily after our BBQ. We even played "Heart Attack". They also invited ppl like Sam, Jeremy, to join us even though they had resigned. In the end, i reached home ard 3am...The next day i got black eyelids...

Updates

2007-04-16T07:15:00.000-07:00

Been quite awhile since my last post..Last time i mentioned that i had our company's so called "Amazing Race", we din't manage to win the race, but it was a fun and tiring experience as we need to search and travel to places like Suntec, Far East Square and even Registry of Marriage to complete our tasks. Though we did not win, all participating teams were given $50 voucher, and we can plan for a meal together using the vouchers =).

My team leader, Jensen, treated me & my fellow team members at Clarke Quay's indonesian restaurant & had a drink at Starbucks. After that, Me, Kenneth & May Lin had a sudden urge to go KTV, hence we asked Kelly & Theodore to join the 3 of us. We had fun =D

But there's a price to pay for having so much fun =.=, we played games, and they made the losers drink beer. I dun really like the taste of beer and i got rashes the next day...i felt abit sick too. For the next few days i fell sick and was having 39.4 degrees high fever, on MC for 2 days. The 1st day of MC i felt so weak and dizzy that i couldnt even stand and walk to the toilet...slept the whole day away...lucky i got better after that, though my throat is not fully recovered yet. Think the flu virus was spreading around call centre, as quite a few of us got v sick...

After i got well, its also time for mi to go for my branch attachment at CCK. The 1st two days i just sit behind the tellers for observation. Now im standing outside to assist with customer's enquiry to comb the queues. Weekdays during mid week tend to be less busy, guess im quite lucky haha. But sometimes i do feel abit paisey for doing nothing when there's no customers or when other staff are busy doing settlements after branch closes. Then i would chat with the intern gal, Jinhui, and the Cisco officer since the rest are very busy with their work. However, i really enjoy waking up late and coming home early since its quite near to my house as compared to my usual working place. The CCK branch ppl are nice too, glad that i've chosen the right branch for attachment. I will be at branch for 2 weeks till near end April, then have to go back to usual working place and working life again haiz..No matter wat, i gotta enjoy these 2 weeks 1st ^^.

After that last KTV we went, Kenneth organised another KTV session last Saturday night. This time with him, me, Kelly, May Lin, Jeremy, Christopher and his friend, Deric and his gf. As usual, they wanna go ktv but they dun sing =/ So again, mostly im the one singing, then christopher joined in after he came. Kenneth sang 1 song, Deric & Jeremy sang only a few of them..the rest, none...Ended up we played more games than singing. We ordered beer again and this time i told them i dun wanna drink much, i dun wanna get rashes and get sick again. We played dice guessing games, and 猜拳, and also "mutiples of numbers" game. It was fun and it was really funny and gross when kenneth took 暧昧 pcitures with Jeremy. We joked that Theo will be damn angry at him for snatching his "gf" Jeremy, hahaha... Kenneth said that he will destroy the evidence when he goes home =.=" We stayed till about 3am and i slept only near 4am...

The next day Sunday, i gotta go for BCP exercise, which is a mock disaster exercise by my company..have to reach my office at 8.30am, which means i only slept 2hrs 'cos i woke at 6am...somemore we gotta walk down from the 17th floor during the exercise... But lucky thing is that we managed to end the whole exercise early at 1.30pm instead of the original 4pm. But opps i left my mp3 player at the office and im not going back for 2 weeks...i had to ask Staffiny to keep it for me 1st and ask Kenneth to retrieve it from her so that he can pass it to mi on tuesday. (since he live same blk as mi)

Speaking of mp3 player, i bought a new mp3 player for myself. Its Creative Vision:M, 30GB. The graphics for watching videos are very nice, and have great storage space! =D

Opps think maybe i too long nvr update on my blog already, 'cos my post is getting abit too long...shall end it here n its time for my beauty sleep.

Dinner with Collegues & Ex Collegues

2007-03-18T00:07:00.000-07:00

Me, Mabel, Jensen, Joyce, Rosalind, Serene met up with Sam and Iris at Marina Square's Centre Stage for dinner on Friday. Too bad Jeremy, Cora & Heng Leng were unable to make it that day.

We had spaghetti and pizzas for dinner. Mabel told us that she is mostly doing data entry now, but think their dept's environment is different from us even though we are still in the same company. Sam & Iris are now collegues again in their current company, its a very small world. Iris told us all abt the eerie haunted building of their company, and their strange & scary encounters while she and her current collegues were working graveyard shift. =.=" Sam is new to that place, we asked him to explore and investigate then he can tell us more stories of the haunted building next time lol...

After dinner, Joyce & Rosalind went home, the rest of us continue our "2nd round". We were considering whether to go KTV or the 爱情海民歌餐厅. In the end we opted the 2nd choice as we had not tried it b4. We ordered our drinks & dedicated songs. Jensen & Sam kept wanting to sabo me to sing on stage, i threatened that i wont appear at work tml, then they let the matter rest lol..Phew!

We found that the singers are not that superb and they were like pushing the songs to one another. The drinks are named after the title of chinese love songs. But the waiters were also confused over the names =.=...When we got the bill, its was about $90 for 6 ppl...and we only ordered those type of punch, teas, all non-alcolholic drinks (cos they dont have alcoholic drinks)...Its too expensive, dun tink i wanna go again next time...I rather go KTV and sing songs myself, and its more fun.

These few days i've been crazy over Hana Yori Dango 2, the jap version of Meteor Garden 2 (流星花园). I finally finished the series just now. Its a great show (Though i prefer the TW's version of F4 lol)

Now i gonna get back to my work, got to read up all the notes 'cos i need to give training to a new staff who will be joining my dept tml. Oh, im so kan2 jiong1 sia..dunno if i can do well as a trainer? And i will be going branch attachment for 2 weeks soon in April. Hope all's well and ends well...Better go prepare now...

Sakae Dinner Buffet

2007-03-14T08:21:00.000-07:00

Went causeway point yesterday evening to meet Ruifen. My last birthday she treated me to Seoul Garden and we ate till super full and bloated that we cant even walk...

Hence yesterday, its my turn to treat her as her belated birthday gift. We went Sakae Sushi, there was quite a long queue. We decided to eat their dinner buffet which cost $18.90++. We had to eat at least 20plates as each plate cost $1.90. As we were quite hungry, we ate quite fast and in the end we managed to ate 22 plates including the fruits. Then we realised that we actually had complimentary Udon!! Alamak, we dont wanna waste it hence we ordered 1 bowl to share between us.

I was telling Ruifen earlier that Sakae Sushi during CNY, asked customers to collect around late afternoon as they would pack this leftovers from the lunch buffet into the take away boxes. (Cos we saw them taking those sushis frm the conveyor belt b4 when Theo, Jem & me went there for their take aways for our dept function) Suddenly Ruifen saw one of the guy staff who was clearing a table behind us, using the menu to act as a cover, and with the other 2 gal staff keeping a lookout for him, he quickly put back a plate of Ika on the conveyor belt as the food was left untouched on the table. =.=" Thats unhygenic and poor customer service...They thought that nobody would have saw it...They were stupid enough to do it when there were customers around. And even if they wanna do that, they should have bring that plate of Ika back to the kitchen and put back on conveyor belt when no1 could see them...

I guessed outside food are always like that, but i rather dunno what they do with the leftovers. =.="

After our filling dinner, we went Timezone to play arcade games with the Powercard that i had. I wanna used up the value in that card. We went there gong3 gong3 dunno how to play, anyhow play and the games ended very fast abit bo hua lol. But we had fun and enjoyed ourselves.

After resting at home for 4 days, tml finally gotta go back to work again...haiz why isit that i always feel my off days are not enough for me leh?

More Events Coming Up!!

2007-03-09T18:02:00.000-08:00

Our company social club has come up with a game called "Amazing Race" on 25 March (Sun). Staff can form a team of 4-6 to join this game. We will be given quizes, objectives etc and we have to run around raffles area to find the solution. The grand winner will get $1000, and best dress to get $300. Mi, Joyce, Joanna & Nicole has formed a team, representing our call centre to participate in this game. Heh hopefully we will win back that $1000 ^^

I will be meeting up with some of the collegues and ex-collegues on 16 March for dinner, look forward to see them as i have not seen a few of them for quite some time. A few of them just left not too long ago but it will be good to meet up and chat and find out how each other is doing in their new companies.

Oh yea we are going to have a chalet BBQ on 24 March (Sat) for our dept. I will be going there after my Phantom of Opera @ Esplanade with YL, HF & C. But i don't think i can stay for the chalet though i originally wanted to...'cos the next day gotta go for the Amazing Race game early in the morning, think i better get enough sleep...

Wow, so many events coming up ^^ so excited. looking forward to them and more of them soon!

No More Shift!! Yay! ^^

2007-03-09T17:55:00.000-08:00

Yay! Finally my turn has come....I will not be working shift anymore from April onwards. I will finally have my off days on weekends and public holidays, more time to socialise and meet up with friends and to go take up courses like foreign language course. But then i gotta forgo my shift allowance...Haiz nevermind, being out of shift gives me more personal time, meet up with friends go play badminton with them etc. So happy! And i will be starting my branch attachment & trainer role soon. Actually, i am not that prepared to be a trainer yet, i still got alot of things to prepare like the training guide and also to read up and organise my thoughts and way of training. Hopefully, everything will be smooth & successful...

Wednesday Feast Fiesta

2007-03-09T17:44:00.000-08:00

On Wednesday i met up with YL, HF & C @Bugis. We shopped abit and as usual they kept asking me to try dresses =.=" After that we went for the chinese restuarant near sakae sushi on the 2nd floor as we have not tried it b4. The food was normal, not really very fantastic. Only half satisfied, they decided to go for dessert at a Jap restuarant just beside Fish & Co. I was already very full at that time. The 3 of them saw the delicious dishes on the menu and started their 2nd round ordering =.=" At 1st we only wanted dessert, but ended up ordering others as well...my gosh, we are such a big eater...their green tea ice cream & lotus chips & theres one other dish i forgotten about the name, were very nice. Next time will go back again to try other dishes, 'cos we are too damn full to try them all... >.<

Christin's House

2007-02-25T07:49:00.000-08:00

Christin invited us to her house on Friday. Her sis-in-law's family and friends were there, her brother's friends were there as well. Her mum cooked curry chicken, popiah, jellyfish for us. The curry chicken was hot and shiok. We also lao1 yu2 sheng1, wishing all to have a prosperous and good year ahead.

We played mahjong bingo after the dinner (dint play mahjong 'cos me and HF dunno how to play). I won the 1st game, had some beginner's luck i guessed ^^. The best funny thing is when Christin's bro's friend keep getting the tile that enables one of us to win, and he keep on losing lol.

Oh, oh and i saw her 4 cute little doggies, they were sooo cute. I still remember last time i was quite afraid of doggies near me. Now, because of Christin's and Huifang's hyperactive doggies, guessed im more used to them already, though i still do not dare to let their mouth near me...Aiyo i still remember last time at Huifang's house when i need to go toilet, her hyperactive doggie was outside her room, and i dashed all the way to the toilet with her doggie chasing behind me. From then on, it has become a classic...Huifang, Christin and Yiling, will not forget that scene when i ran super fast with a doggie chasing me behind till i finally reached the "safety zone", the toilet. =.=" They would still sometimes talk about this classic tale lol...They were surprised that i could run so fast haha.

Anyway, we had fun, and hope we can play group games like mahjong bingo again. Christin, thanks for the great dinner, but no more matchmaking session hor =.="

I dumped him

2007-02-16T16:55:00.000-08:00

Im very pissed with him.

Im not sad over him. Im only very pissed with him and myself. Pissed with him for being such a liar and cheat, pissed with myself for being so foolish to trust him so much.

Lies, Hypocrites, Jerks, i hate them.

He is so cruel to me, there is no need to be sad over him. Im just glad that i found out sooner.

He had been giving lame excuses not to meet me for the past 3 weeks, saying that he is very tired after work, need to learn stuff etc. At first, i did believe him, and im being very understanding and i did not ask him to meet me. But this continues on, and i was thinking if he is so tired and busy, i can ask him just for dinner, anyway he also needs to eat, and i can go to his place nearby to have dinner with him. Even that, he is giving mi stupid excuses, showing he has no intention of meeting me at all. He also told me he is tired etc wanna go home sleep, but problem is he did not do that at all, he went out with ppl instead, nvr pick up my calls and nvr return my sms. There are other things but i would remain silent for now.

I only told him i only have a small request to meet for dinner near his place, and he is not able to even do that, and he started to say that i am not understanding, pressurising him for time, money, & freedom and need 1 mth to cool down, let him be quiet for awhile etc.

Lame...and what pissed me off most is his sms stating: "Trust me, if you continue to be like this, no man can be part of your life."

Bullshit. It shld be the other way round instead. He is the one at fault and he can still push the blame to me, making me sound so unreasonable and not understanding, and he is the one who is the innocent party.

I found out the truth and i cannot tahan anymore, i am very practical, not emotional as i told him b4. Once i found out and proven that he is a damn liar, immediately all the trust and love had disappeared into thin air, no longer exist anymore. I will end this immediately instead of dragging it on.

I called him out to talk face to face to make things clear. He can still stubbornly refused and find excuses to avoid meeting me. He lied ever since the beginning till the end.

I waited for him at Bugis Macdonald at 12nn. When he arrived, i immediately ask him to listen to me, dun give any interruptions and listen finish what i have to say 1st, then if he has anything he wish to say or rebutt he can say that later.

I asked him he wanna cool down 1 mth right? He wants time and freedom right? I can give them all back to him, he can go enjoy his freedom forever. He can go find another gal who is more understanding and more stupid than mi. I no longer wanna be with him anymore.

He still wanna say he is busy w work, learn things etc..i told him, watever reason u gave, i dun wanna hear, it doesnt matter anymore, my heart is set.

He was quiet, it is either that he was stunned because he would not expect me to be able to do this or he dun even care.

I asked him to return my $ which i lend to him for his school fees. He said that he would return me by March, when i tell him to return by next week since we are not together anymore. I took out the IOU i drafted and asked him to sign on it. I told him once i do trust him, now his actions doesnt prove to me at all that i can trust him. I was expecting him to refuse, but he immediately signed on it without reading it, he thought that the IOU is invalid.

After he signed, i told him to slowly eat his fav 20pc nuggets, i go off liao. When i walked out, i remembered the couple ring i bought was still on his finger. I walked back and found him walking out. I told him hey the ring u shld return me since i bought it. He just took it out and pass it to mi, i just walked off, without looking back.

After i dumped him, i feel so happy, i feel lighter after the past few days of torture finding out that he is liar. I even went shopping after that and told all my friends about it.

I was considering if i wanna delete all the previous post abt him and mi, i wanted to do that, they were filled with my happiness with him, which are now mocking me for being foolish enuff to be so happy and so trusting towards him when he had been lying to me from the start. But i thought, it is my dairy, a record of my life, they will remind me and teach me to remember not to trust a person completely and not to accept a guy so easily the next time. It is a hard lesson learnt. I will never forget it.

Maybe in this area i should thank him for teaching me this. This also made me realised that i have so many good and supportive friends when i am in trouble, and having problems, they are all willing to help me, and listen to my problems, giving me sound advises. I really wanna thank all of you for standing by my side, i am very touched and happy to have all of you as my friends. Friends forever!

And I really dun give a damn even if he is reading my blog now.

His Birthday 25 January

2007-01-25T08:48:00.000-08:00

Today is 1 day after our 1st mth anniversary and it is also his birthday. I sang bday song to him through phone at midnite. We met for lunch during our lunch time at Macdonalds for 20 pc nuggets. We originally wanted to meet tonite for his bday. However, his granny asked him to go back for dinner. Hence i met him after work at Bugis for awhile to pass him the presents. I gave him his favorite brand Goldlion's wallet & cardholder, and a bottle of handmade stars with a message in the bottle.

Message to him: "Dear, no matter what you have decided, i will always support you. xxx"

He said that he likes the gifts especially the bottle of stars with message. After that he celebrated his bday with his family and relatives.

He is gonna celebrate his bday w his friends in KL tml till Sunday. Im also going to my collegues' farewell party tml nite at Amara hotel.

Planning a Bangkok trip with my secondary good buddies tentatively 27-30 Mar on msn just now...Yawnz so sleepy right now...better go sleep liao, i think im gonna look like a panda soon. =/

=(

2007-01-23T08:27:00.000-08:00

I went shopping today at Jurong Point with my collegue Joyce who is having her maternity leave now. Bought alot of stuff, including his bday present...spent a bomb on clothes, etc. also signed up for manicure & pedicure. I do this partly for him..i wanna look nicer for him...

After Joyce went back, met up w my Sec friend, Siewfang. I was at the Nail Palace, and she had to go Yoga afterwards, hence in the end we dint really spend much time together. Im so sorry for that.

I was preparing to go home, when he asked mi to accompany him for dinner. I went BPP to meet him. When we met, he told me something is troubling him at work. I was telling him how i feel, im really not good with words. I asked if he wanna eat anything, but he insisted that he has no appetite, ask mi go ahead to buy food. I came back asking him to eat abit of mine, but he does not wish to. He told me all abt his troubles, then he said that i do not understand him and do not know know how to cheer him up...i noe im not good with words, he said that i can learn...though i said that need time to understand each other, he said that time is not the issue, its whether i wanna ask him questions to know more about him anot. Everything i say seems to be wrong. He also talked about marriage that relationship is not about time etc...My views are different. I would say "wat if" marry le, then find out not suitable? He will say i always "wat if"..then wat if cross the road got car accident, then dun cross road?..He does not wanna live and regret...

I am very sad that he scolded me, I am even sadder that he say that i do not understand him. I am very sorry about that...i will learn and try my best. But i just feel that everyone has different views, i think we need to compromise...by making me think and do what he feels, it makes me think that he just wanna mold me into someone he wants and not liking me for what i am... It also saddens me when he mentioned his ex gf.

If you are reading this, I am just writing how i feel, hope you will understand me too... We gotta learn and compromise, i just hope you can also respect my views too, you always say that i do not have my own thinking. When i have my own thinking, you will make me feel that i am wrong and want me to think the same as you... I admit that there are things i really need to learn..as you know im just like a toddler still learning to walk. I will try my best to understand you, but i hope you can understand me too...

I am sorry i cant cheer you up today..but i am also very sadz as well. =(

2007-01-21T19:50:00.000-08:00

He scolded me for not drinking enuff water and giving excuses for not drinking enuff water...He say that if i cant take care of myself, how am i to take care of kids in future...He is very naggy actually haha (dun kill me if u are reading this =p). Dun be angry k? I promise i will drink lotsof water from now on...

Kster

2007-01-05T08:12:00.000-08:00

We met for lunch on thurs @CWP. He needs to study for his last paper on Fri. Hence he went back after that, not forgetting asking me to go gym b4 he went home =/

After gym, i saw 2 missed calls. It was from Jun. Jun was so happy and excited when he told mi the HR called him that he is recruited for the position which he longed for. He was sooo happy that he even sing songs to me..He was getting abit crazy when he told me scarly the world seems abit beautiful and suddenly feel like getting married now. Siao! thats wat i told him. Can imagine how happy he is...

Friday afternn i tried baking his favourite cheese cake. This shld be the 1st time i tried baking cake by myself. Even my mum told my bro i siao liao ar bake cake today. The receipe looks very simple. Cheesecake is really easy to make. But i added too much sugar =/...its too damn sweeeet....i pack a few into the tupperware for him, dun care, he need to at least try my 1st time effort. lol..

We met at Chinatown Kster. 1st time try Kster, the room is very small, but we can lie on the floor w cushions around us. This Kster uses mouse to select songs. He loves Fish Leong so much. Especially the new song "暖暖" by 梁静茹. Dunno how many times we repeated for this song hahaa..we decided to make this as our very own special song forever...

He was very late for his friends' appointment at St. James Powerhouse. But he still make an effort to accompany me to my MRT station & b4 going home to change & took cab to Vivo..So nice of him...

Jun said that he is getting abit fatter, and i got 1 kg off me. Good! Hopefully we both can reach our target weights ^^.

Exam Period

2007-01-03T08:21:00.000-08:00

He is having his exams these few days. I went over to BPP near his house to meet him for dinner. After we had our dinner, he is still hungry & craved for favorite his bubble tea & 20 pieces of nuggets. We bought bubble tea & went Mac for 20 pieces of nuggets. I bought Cleo and i remembered that he told me he is interested to read female magazines just that he does not dare to buy them himself..lol. Hence i bought the copy of Cleo and we read together while eating the 20 pieces of nuggets. Its so simple but i just feel contented & happy.

After eating, im walking him back to his block. It was raining quite heavily. Lucky i brought my umbrella along. He was very happy about it but... alamak my umbrella was too small =.=" Bring equals never bring at all...He was complaining about the size and telling me that next time bring a bigger umbrella and throw this umbrella away...somehow it seems v comical the way he is holding the small umbrella trying to shelter both of us from the rain, i just couldn't stop myself from laughing hahaaa... We decided to stop over at a void deck to wait for the rain to get smaller b4 we continue walking. Some Malay kids were practising some form of Malay martial arts at the void deck. We started giving each other neck massage and it was so shiok but he just massage awhile nia say hand suan1 liao =/ Once we reach his block, he waited with me for my bus before going home to sleep for a few hours and continue with his study again.

As i am typing now, i believe my dear piggy is still fast asleep...

A Year Has Gone By...A New Year Has Arrived

2007-01-02T05:10:00.000-08:00

Dear all,

A year has passed since i wrote on this blog. What have i done for this past year?

I managed to stay on to my present job for more than a year already...and i had been to Korea with Zann in Apr/May'06, Taiwan with my family in Sept'06 and Penang in Dec'06.

I had been busy & too lazy to blog for very long ever since i started working this current job...

Why do i start blogging again?

The new year has finally arrived...2007. This new year has a very special meaning for me. It marks a new beginning for me. It represents a year of happiness.

I have found my fate and the person whom im truly happy with. He is 3 years younger than me...we met at my office. I was confused at first as he is younger, im not sure if i can accept someone who is younger...but he kept asking me out and i feel comfortable with him hence i always agree to meet out with him. Things has been going on between us for more than a month. We both realised that we missed each other while i was away in Penang for 4 days. He told me that after i came back to Singapore. Somehow i knew he was interested in me by the way he msg me. Its quite obvious...

We went out on 23rd Dec 06 after my work. He gave me a very cute & large Hello Kitty cushion with a Lily for my Xmas gift. I was quite touched by it. Its the 1st time i received flowers from a guy...We went to watch Eragon. He asked if i'm cold, that he brought a sweater just for me to wear...i was very touched leh..We went dinner after that at a Vietnam restaurant. While walking along Raffles Hotel, he was trying to say somthing to me. He said:"I wanted to tell you something...but i dunno how to tell you..." My sixth sense was telling me he may wanna pop me with the question...i purposely acted blur and chatted with him on some other things. After that while he was accompanying me home on MRT, he was sitting beside me. He repeated that same sentence again...and he whispered to me:“你有没有感觉到我喜欢你？” Im unable to describe how i feel during that time...I felt v paisey, happy, blushing at the same time. I dint know how to answer him at all...He asked me what is my answer...i just kept shaking my head and said i dunno...He told me that he just need me to say yes or no. He asked:“你可以让我做你的第一个男友吗？”My mind is in a blank, i dunno what to think. I just tell him that i will give him the answer the next day we meet.

The next day, Xmas eve, we met and went to Marina Bay for steamboat. He keep asking me my answer..im just unable to say it out...The 2 of us are quite blur lol. We went there without much cash in our wallet...It was raining that day and we finally got a seat only to realise there is no ATM nearby...We left and took a cab to Bugis for steamboat. Originally wanted to eat Tian Tian Steamboat but too many people gotta queue. While walking there, he asked me again...but as usual i just cant get my words out...He just look at me & took hold of my hands...I just smiled and let him hold on...thats how we started...

So far he is very sweet to me..& i hope this goes on forever...

He is a loyal blogger, he reminds me of my blog again. I want to record down all our memories and keep it in this blog diary of mine...

At Work

2005-10-01T01:00:00.000-07:00

My fellow team collegues, Jensen & Nana were so nice to give me a bag as my bday present even though we have only known each other for a short period of time. I'm really touched by their friendliness and sincerity. I really appreciate it very much.

Now, feeling more stress from work liao...the location of my workstation no gd...just behind the partitions are my manager and 1 of the team manager. My own team manager(newly joined guy) is quite near to me also...Basically, i'm surrounded by managers!!! Jia lat, whatever i say, they will be able to overhear...stress man...The manager also asked my collegue to sit in to listen and point out my mistakes. I need to improve on my soft skills n communication skills...haiz...

Happy 24th Birthday!!!

2005-09-25T23:05:00.000-07:00

Haha old liao, 24yrs old le...Today is my 24th birthday. I'm so happy and touched to rec'v best wishes from friends esp from those i havnt been contacting for a v long time...

A summary of this week events:

Mon - Working

Tues - i joined hoppo, tashes and starusticity at west mall to watch movie. It was a last min decision and i just met them just in time for the show. So, happily i entered the theater with no idea what kind of movie i'm watching. Then after the show started for abt 5-10mins, i turned to ask hoppo:"eh how come they speak in foreign language?" =.=" Hoppo happily told mi that its a foreign russian movie...The title is Night Watch, a russian trilogy movie. The story is quite original and gd though its a low budget film. We went dinner together at MOS Burger after the show.

Wed - Working

Thurs - This time met starusticity again and she passed me the gift that she bought w christin and huifang. Then i went Tangs fitting room to try it. It was a blue tube dinner dress from Daniel Yam. Hee thanks gals, i like it v much, but hopefully one of u get rom or married soon so that i wear it to attend keke.
After that we went at cineleisure to watch The Brothers' Grimm, not as gd as i expected as its mixture of fairy tales, however not bad also la.
We went bugis to meet huifang and christin for dinner. But b4 that we shop ard bugis junction, and i bought a nice white shirt and a white tube dress for Baofang's ROM. The tube dress is quite casual and simple. Just happened that Xiangru also in Bugis Junction, hence i met and showed her the dress heh. After that we went dinner at a Jap restaurant. Ate Unagi set, it was so filling...*Burp*Thanks to huifang's guardian angel for treating us.

Fri - Working

Sat - Working

Sun - Yay Happy 24th Birthday to myself! I got my 1st Bday best wishes at 12mn frm Bryan, then i reminded another friend to wish mi happy bday after that lol. Then i went out with Ruifen and had lunch at Ramen Ten Orchard tdy. The we went shopping and shop from Far East to the far end near oppo of Somerset MRT, then cross road from Cineleisure, to Swensens for ice cream. But abit weird, no1 is serving us when we were waiting outside the shop. We had to call afew times for the waiter to take our orders too. We had french fries, Cookies icecream and happy bday fire icecream(cant remember the name la). After eating we asked for bills. The gal we called finally came and we tot she will give us the bill but instead she smiled at us and cleared the table then forget abt the bill....so we ask another manager for the bill. When he came, Ruifen asked for a pen to write feedback regarding their poor service, but the manager looked v nervous and patting all over himself for a pen =/ when he cant find the pen, he ignore us and went over to the nxt table to serve another customer...wah kao...then he ask another guy to give us the bill instead. So my friend used the pen to write her feedback 1st, then the guy was looking on. Think he getting impatient then saw our -ve feedback was abit not happy and attitude not v gd. After we left tat place, we say nvr to go back to this swensen ever again..they dun seem to wan to bill us...and they have so many staff all crowded at their counter doing nothing...haiz poor service.

Thanks to Ruifen who treated mi to Swensens. After that we walk ard Wisma for awhile b4 we went home. I dint manage to find my pullover (now alot of gals wearing v "IN" now), however, i bought a simple top from U2 and 2 pairs of earring from Far East.

Test, Test, Test...Tsk, Tsk,Tsk...

2005-08-26T21:47:00.000-07:00

Was on MC on Wed. The doctor at Raffles Medical in UOB centre gave me 2 days MC but i only MC 1 day(too many MC not gd for probabtion). Hmm...just wondering if it is a practice of Raffles Medical doctors to ask patients their working location and their designation? Twice i've been there, twice i've been asked the same qns from 2 diff doctors...

Having tests on product knowledge frm ytd to nxt tues. Feels like i'm back to school again and studying for exam lol. Luckily, my collegues who set the tests gave some tips on the impt areas.

I need to brush up on my tele-conversation skills and speed...

Will be starting my shift in September....

Have started to take calls with a collegue sitting in to guide me.

Yay, i can claim my two 1/2hrs off-in-lieu next week (came back on one of the sat this mth and also to compensate for the extra working hrs for nxt week when i start my shift). Therefore, mon and tues will be working half day. 'Cos i will be starting my shift frm 1st Sep, according to my sep schedule, nxt thurs and fri are also my off days. Muahahah hence, i'll only be working one full day on Wed nxt week. However, i'll be working nxt sat, sun and mon. (but tues will be break again)

Hi all

2005-08-16T22:47:00.000-07:00

Sorry, not much time to blog recently..so, i'll keep them short just to record the main things that happened recently.

1) Alot of things to study for my work too many information to remember...and argh...tests.
2) Met huifang, weilin, christin and yiling for dinner at Suntec. Ate at Renn Thai, which had really lousy service, and nxt to Swensen, and continue eating 'Earthquake'. Took alot of photos using hf's new casio digicam and made funny poses (not me -_-")
3) Driving instructor called today and arranged my 2nd time driving exam date on 16 Nov (Wed) at 2.45pm

Sob~ Failure!

2005-08-10T18:40:00.000-07:00

Haiz, as u can see from the title, i failed my driving exam =(

i went to a room with 4 other candidates. we drew lots to pick the tester and test route. i was considered lucky cos i got the easy route without any U-turn and not teck whye. The tester i got seems quite nice but i heard frm my instructor later that hes strict with 1st timers >.< I got 26 demerits and 2 immediate failure from him =~( my circuit goes smoothly until i went wrong lane once ...then immediate failure...haiz, then went out to the road somtimes i forgot to on signal and also some small hiccups...think my main weakness is at changing lane and focus not enough..

now, i need to renew my provisional driving license and rebook for a test date =/ and i need to wait for 3 more mths for the nxt test date...(private slower...) aiyo...wasted my leave and also money...hopefully can pass the next test...this is really big investment =/

Driving Mania!!!!

2005-08-07T22:19:00.000-07:00

Woah man, its damn fast...I'm going to take my driving exam on this coming wed!! Have been going thru "intensive" training these few days. Today, i went for a normal on-the-road lesson in the afternn, then just now at 8pm went back for circuit...Tat was only the 2nd time going into the circuit for mi...This instructor is my instructor's friend. 'Cos he wasn't able to teach mi at nite, he asked his friend to teach mi instead ('cos i need more circuit training b4 my exam) This instructor seemed not as fierce as my instructor. haha...well at nite, the circuit was quite empty and there was no need to queue. However, its my 1st time driving at nite...and that instructor's car backseat had 2 pots of orchids which block my view and made it more "challenging"...well, i dun really have much confidence....my driving still sux...i still have one more circuit during National Day and also the morn b4 the exam...hope everything goes well...*PRAY*

Samsung SyncMaster 713N LCD!

2005-08-06T23:47:00.000-07:00

My pc monitor cant make it liao...the screen turned black, cant even see... My dad was in a good mood today so he drove us to Sim Lim Square just now. When we reached at abt 8pm, many shops were closing...Fuwell on 5th floor, which we often go was closed too...=/ so early...so we went to the 4th floor, where some shops were still open. This particular shop we went had such poor service attitude. We were apparently very interested and keen in making a purchase, but the guy just answer a few of our qns then bo chap attitude and kept goin inside the shop to talk to his collegue instead of serving us. We were damn fedup with his attitude that we decided to walk away and go to their competitor just opposite them. It was a smaller shop and run by a malay but his service is much much better than the previous shop and the price they offered was abt $10 lower. So i bought my black Samsung SyncMaster 713N for $420 from them.

Silver is nice but out of stock. Black nice too, match my speaker's and cpu's color.

Heard that it was a new model and the color really nice. Now i can remove my bulky old HP monitor and clear much space on my table.

Maybank Precious Moment Prepaid Card!

2005-08-06T23:18:00.000-07:00

Maybank just launched its 1st Precious Moment prepaid card on friday. I dint plan to buy it, but when i saw the card, i was so tempted and in the end i bought the card for $28.

Nice?

I was entitled to a lucky spin, which i won a furry dinner bag from it. The top prize was a Precious Moment figurine. The prepaid card basically works like a cash card and debit card. The starting value of the card is zero. Therefore, like a cash card, it can be topped up with cash via Maybank cash deposit machine. It works like a debit card whereby the user can sign payment at shops that accept Master Electronic. And the best part is that, for every dollar spent, a point will be earned just like credit card. These points can be used to exchange for vouchers and other things. Furthermore, the card can also be used to get discounts from participating shops. Additionally, if card is registered by the user, user can view the statement online, enquire about the card balance and top up via atms and internet banking, and block card if its lost. Moreover, it can be treated like a gift card to friends or family. Heard that its limited so those interested can grab them fast at Maybank branches or at certain Precious Moments outlets.

Call Centre Anniversary Celebration

2005-07-31T09:25:00.000-07:00

Ytd went to our manager's condo lounge to celebrate the anniversary of Maybank's Call Centre. One of the collegue who just joined for 3 mths, have an interest in making temporary tattoo. She bought all her collections and helped us draw tattoo haha. Most of the collegues were queuing up for her tattoo lol (even the managers of dept >.<) I chose a stripe with a rose in the middle and tattooed it on my right arm. She helped mi tattooed the pattern in shiny lemon green and rose in shiny pink. Hehe i chose one more butterfly and tattooed it in purple on my left shoulder. These temp tattoos are able to last for 4-5 days. It is a very interesting hobby. Maybe i shld try nxt time hehe.

After that we started to eat our buffet dinner. Yummy..the buffet they ordered was delicious. After that we had a game which required us to use a string and handcuffed it on our both hands and the partner had to loop the string over his/her partner's string then handcuffed both hands as well. This means that both ppl would be locked together. The way to win the game is to find the method to unlock both of us without untying the string. It was so funny! We were trying all sorts of funny ways like stepping over each other to get out of the string but it makes things worst lol. We thought for a moment that we might have release it, but end up in the same position as b4 =.=" The head of call centre was very nice, she gave mi and my partner a clue. So from there, i found out the method of unlocking both of us quite by chance. It was really interesting like magic. We demonstrated to all the ppl on how we got out of the lock. haha it was quite fun. After that, we were broken into 5 grps to play win, lose or draw. I'm in the 5th group and im the drawer, while the others in my group guess. We were given 5 mins to guess as much as we can. Haha, our grp came in 1st with 8 correct answers (my drawing was so ugly and they still able to guess haha)

So came to prize giving time, we were all given a door gift, which was a scented candle bought back by a colleegue from thailand. Additionally, everyone was given a small souvenior, which was a small palmsize clock cum calculator, with individual's name tagged on it. Then, for the win, lose or draw, both 3rd and 4th team got a metal water bottle each (i know what's the prizes 'cos i helped to wrapped them on fri lol) The 1st runner up team got a Maybank money gift card (prepaid card w/o value la haha gotta top up) sponsored by our cards business division. Finally, the winner which is my team, we got $160 Maybank treats voucher! But weird how come $160...difficult to divide 'cos the vouchers came in $50, $20, $10...and the smallest is $10...so we decided to send them back for a change of smaller denomination of all $10 vouchers. We had 5 person on a group, so means that each of us will get $30 voucher! (with $10 left over -.-") Muahahaha...these vouchers can be used to exchanged for lotsof stuff like Junction 8 or Tampines Mall voucher, alot of dining places and shopping stores like Ajisen, Yuki Yaki, Crystal Jade! ^^ Oh yea! Maybe i will use it to buy Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince at MPH or Times Bookshop with the voucher wee!. =D

Rabbit's Abalone Rice Set

2005-07-27T22:29:00.000-07:00

Lunch today with 2 collegues. One of them is 33 yrs old but already received her long service award!!! Yea, she has worked in the company for almost 12 years >.< Tats very long....

We joined her and her 2 friends for lunch. One of her friend is from another department in the company, while the other was their ex-collegue, who is now working for another company nearby. They suggested to go to a special place call Rabbit Seafood for lunch.

Walked quite a distance, and on our way there, we saw California Fitness trainers performing an exercise dance in the middle of Raffles Place square. Haha and there were so many working ppl walking around and stopping by to watch.

We reach Rabbit and placed our orders. I ordered a set of Abalone rice. The set comes with a 清汤。The abalone dish comes with mushrooms and vegetables. Mmm...yummy! It was very delicious! It cost $7.90 a set. Their fried tofu also quite nice. We gotta rush quickly as we only have 1 hr lunch time...We took up much time to walk and wait for the food to come...One of the friend of my collegue paid for the bill and insisted that he treat us for this time. We were abit paiseh to let him pay so they agreed to treat him next time. So, i earned a free abalone meal keke...

2005-07-25T23:32:00.000-07:00

Fantastic 4

2005-07-19T12:20:00.000-07:00

My clock woke mi up at 6.30am ytd...when mi and my bro reached causeway point, it was about 8am. We bought 2 Straits Times just for the voucher to redeem the movie tickets. In the end we realised that Today paper also have the voucher =/

When we reached there, the gates were still closed, so we went Macdonalds for breakfast and stayed there for 1 hr (we were too kiasu lol). We went up to the cinema at abt 9+pm and realised that we are one of the 1st ppl to reach there lol. After awhile, more ppl came while we sat at the seats nearby (nobody queued =.=") At10am, the counters opened and everyone rushed to queue up. There were 3 counters and actually the queue wasn't that long. Maybe 'cos the papers state that causeway pt's cathay opened at 12nn. So, we got the tickets easily. Aiya, when i thought about it later, we should have queue again for more tickets since the queue was not long at all...however, i dint thought of it cos the papers say each person can only redeem 2 tix (but actually can queue other lane and the person probably wont remember us anyway)

Anyway we got 4 movie tix for my sis, bro and mi. I have one extra tix, which i gave to him 'cos he told me about this lobang. So, i met him for dinner at Causeway point after his work. He treated me to Sakae Sushi 'cos he said he owe me a meal since i helped him with his stock challenge, lend him anime dvd to burn and also the free movie tix. After that we went to kiddy palace and metro to find the baby sunglasses but still no luck. Hence, we gave up and went cold storage to buy drinks instead. We met my sis and bro there while they are buying snacks. So the 4 of us went to watch Fantastic 4, which was very entertaining and funny with the characters' sense of humor. The graphics of the show was really good and cool too. By the time we reached home its nearly midnite. Heng, we lived near =D

Oh and my sore throat is getting worse since yesterday...going out of voice soon...went driving just now...and the weather is so cold and rainy that it makes me feel so cold, feverish and unwell...haiz...

Argh kenna attacked by lazy bug

2005-07-16T22:49:00.000-07:00

Hmm..think i've been attacked by 'Lazy Bug'... have been very lazy to blog recently...lol

Yesterday met my JC friend for dinner at Marina foodcourt. We shared korean ramen and a jap salad chicken bento. But the korean ramen is actually maggie mee =/ and the kimchi not nice.. jap bento also not really nice...

Actually our main purpose is to go Millenia Walk as my friend needed to buy a wedding gift for her collegue. Lol, she's not very sure where Millenia is, and though I've went before, I'm still a directional idiot with no sense of direction haha..so we walked one big round and finally found it. Then we went to the shop called Dreamweavers. Its a shop that sells wedding accessories like wedding pillows for holding rings, candles, nice guests books, and those ‘姐妹’hand bands...ooh...
then we also signed up for their mailing lists..haha mayb nxt time got use lol (more n more friends getting married >.<) After that on our way back, we passed by Suntec's Fountain of Wealth which was so romantic and beautiful with all the romantic songs, lasers and words that people dedicated to their loved ones...

Oh btw, Cathay Cineplexes are having promotions over the weekend for their 70th Anniversary. They have $1.60 movie tix for Fantastic Four at Cathay Cineleisure on Fri, Sat and Sun for certain showtimes if u cut out the vouchers frm the morn papers to exchange for it. Today they are also giving out free popcorns for movie goers; tml free coke; Monday FREE MOVIE TICKETS!!! Just need to cut out that morn's Straits Times voucher and use it to exchange for a pair of movie tix at any cathay theaters and for any movie and showtimes! Hee, I'm going to causeway point with my bro in the early morn for them! Each person can only redeem a pair of tix while stock last! Wish me luck! =D

Juju Hokkaido Hot Pot

2005-07-07T17:17:00.000-07:00

Maybank called yesterday and told me im selected for the Customer Relationship Executive job at their call centre. However, they need 1 week to process before they can give mi a definite confirmation and to sign contract. The pay and benefits is quite good as expected from a bank job. So im keeping my fingers cross now... and pray... Im requested to drop by their office to fill in a personality test form. So i reached Plaza Singapura early (cos im meeting Weilin, Yiling, Christin and Huifang for dinner at Paradiz Centre).

We went to Juju Hokkaido Hot Pot for dinner (next to Tao Restaurant) and celebrate both Weilin's and Huifang's belated birthday. ^^ The food are really nice and its a 7 course -.- which we eat till stomach bloated....Its actually individual steamboat and we ate till very tired haha...their green tea is self made mixed fruit green tea which smells and tastes v nice. I like the starters which is a boiled egg and taste really good after adding some of the special sauce given. As for the desserts, i like their Pearl Habour...yummy...well, its really good but cost nearly $30 for each person...Its really good but its not cheap >.<

Waking up from a dream...

2005-07-05T10:01:00.000-07:00

Its time to wake up from a dream...

My feelings is currently flowing into a funnel, and slowly flowing out as droplets and forming a small puddle, which will eventually evaporates into the air....but when the time comes (rain), all these feelings will flow out again into the stream, to the river, and gushes out as waterfall into the wide open sea...

Shopping

2005-07-05T09:56:00.000-07:00

Went shopping ytd with 2 of my friends in Orchard. Have dinner at Ramen Ten and spicy miso chicken ramen and gyozas for dinner. It was quite delicious. I also bought a pair of dangling earrings which i spotted at Far East.

:x

2005-07-02T13:16:00.000-07:00

I met him yesterday at Orchard to pass him the Naruto dvds and get the movie tix vouchers i asked him to help mi buy. He was meeting his friends to watch War of the Worlds. While i'm meeting my own friends for shopping. I spotted Sun Yanzi while at Takashimaya basement. She was alone and speaking on the phone. She looks like an average girl and not many would notice if eyes are not as sharp enough like mine keke. I enjoyed myself yesterday, having sushi dinner at Ajisen Restaurant and NYDC for dessert. Hee... :x

Get my butt moving

2005-06-23T15:19:00.000-07:00

After my weekly driving lesson today, i made myself go to the library and borrowed some cookery books. Yea, cookery books....i'm not sure if i will be able to make myself learn cooking yet but at least, i got my butt moving to start the 1st step. Guess, i will start to learn some basic knowledge about cooking 1st...Y suddenly i wanted to start learning? Basically because of peer pressure =x My mum has been nagging me for years....It hadn't been bothering me much till now...Think 'cos im getting old lol. Other than my mum, friends also advised me to learn...Even a guy friend knows how to cook, made mi feel abit ashamed of myself haha. Both him and Bryan also advised me to get some cookery books to learn cooking now that im free at home. Haiz, think its really time to get my butt moving liao...

PS on Fire!!!

2005-06-22T17:15:00.000-07:00

He msned me this afternn that PS was on fire ytd nite and everyone was asked to evacuate the building including those in the cinemas watching movies halfway... Afterwards i read from the newspaper that it was actually a small fire which was put out in 2 minutes after the firemen came. Still, we were lucky to have changed our plans to go Marina instead of PS instead, else we may have to abandon our food and evacuate the building =/

About Blogging

2005-06-20T12:04:00.000-07:00

From Starusticity's post, she mentioned:"My life is pretty boring so I can't post like Fion/Raine."

I wanted to comment that my life is not interesting at all. Its so dull and boring that i think those of you who read my blog will fell asleep reading it. The reason i kept this blog is merely to record the small details in my life which is of value and importance to me; some memories which i wish to treasure for the rest of my life. I'm lazy to keep a hard copy diary, hence i'll just type and record everything here. Simply, i blog for myself not for the sake of the readers. (hee..pardon me if you are one of my readers) So this blog is only known by a few of my closer friends. But that doesn't mean that if you don't happen to be my friend, you can't read my blog. But, as i said, i blog for myself so pardon me if i'm boring in the way i blog, uncreative and having poor grammer/vocabs.

Hmm..if this blog is still here in say, 40 years time, i will like to read my posts regarding these precious memories all over again, and perhaps even show to my grandchildren and tell them the story of my boring life haha, tat is if i have any...

Bad feeling...

2005-06-15T14:49:00.000-07:00

haiz, think i got a bad feeling that the lady who interviewed me ytd isn't going to call me...this job is a 6mths temp Admin support for Training dept in Transocean Eastern Pte Ltd. This company is the world's largest offshore drilling co., and its offering $10 per hr for the job....sian if selected, she would have called by now...i'm struggling with myself whether if i should apply bank sales job...i just cant get thru my own barrier of 'sales', 'target', 'shifts', 'long working hours'....but it is really a good experience and good remuneration...

Hair Cut

2005-06-13T21:15:00.000-07:00

Went to have a hair cut at Kimage Hairdressing at Northpoint today with my sis. I even printed out pictures of a gal's hair which i like and showed it to the hairdresser. 'cos of Great Singapore Sale, they have a promotion whereby if bring a friend along for haircut, total cost would only be $30 for both people. Treatment is also cheaper for both people which cost $40 each instead of the original $65. However, the hair dint turn out to be like the picture though im prepared for it, im still abit disappointed. I think my hair dint change much, still looks about the same except that i cut abit of fringe...i also bought a light copper brown hair dye to DIY. This is the 1st time i'm using so not really sure wat color to get also...I tried DIY, then turn out that the color is'nt obvious...think next time i should get a lighter and brighter color...

An enjoyable day

2005-06-12T11:28:00.000-07:00

Met Meiling at Bugis ytd. We went temple to pray, then saw an uncle performing on the streets saying that he has 法术...then used those poor guppies to perform. He put those guppies into his mouth and blow it into a coconut with a v tiny little hole. So poor things...cruelty to animals..
We left to have dessert at the foodcourt and saw Animation Festival holding a Cosplay competition. Its interesting to look at those ppl all dressed up in anime characters.

Who is the coolest of them all?

After that, we went to Harbin Ice Wonderland. Lucky we decided to rent the coat else we would have become icemen inside....it was so cold! The sculptures are beautiful with colorful lightings but it was too bright for us to take pictures with the sculptures. We appeared either too dark or too red inside the photos... We dared not take the slide too...It was so cold that we can only tahan awhile inside...so think $18 is not very worth it...

Sliding down to Ice London Bridge

After that, we walked to Suntec and ended up in Marina. Marina just renovated and its been very long since i've been there. So everything looks new to me. There are alot of interesting restaurants. Theres one which is decorated like a 客栈, the waiter and waitresses are dressed like 店小二 and their menu is a 秘籍. lol interesting rite? Then we also saw a 民歌餐厅 which we decided to try out next time. We discovered a place called Center Stage. It has 6 restaurants surrounding it, including Imperial La Mian Xiao Long Bao, and Genki Sushi. The Center Stage is in the middle, with comfortable couches or 2 person seats. Then the menu includes limited selection of dishes from the 6 restaurants. The best thing about this place is the piano. There is a piano in the center, and from 7pm+ to 9pm+, there will be live performance. We sat there and enjoy the meal, while listening to songs. Its so romantic! Theres songs like Nothing gonna change my love for you, Leaving on a jet plane, and Fly me to the moon. I heard from my friend that the other time she saw a guy wearing suit playing classical music and theres even a violinist! We ordered and shared a La Mian Chicken Soup, Nasi Goreng with egg and satay, 1 long Xiao Long Bao, and a cup of ice cream. Yummy...total cost is $32, which is about $16 per person. And we can take our time to eat, chat and enjoy music there too.

The Performers of Center Stage

After that, we walked passed some places while going back to mrt. And we realised Marina is a really good place for dating couples and its very romantic haha. So i wanna share this with everyone so next time bring your bf/gf there and enjoy! =D

Interview at DSI, A*STAR

2005-06-10T09:25:00.000-07:00

I went for an interview at Data Storage Institute (DSI) which is one of the 12 R&D institution under A*STAR yesterday morning. It is located inside NUS. I was quite excited to be selected for this interview though its only a 3mths temp admin job. This is because its salary is paid in monthly basis and should be not bad. Additionally, it is also very prestigious and A*STAR is a government statutory board. Bryan works for A*STAR too, just that he is under another institution which is also within NUS.

However, the interview isn't as easy as i thought...It was only a 3 mths temp admin job but when i entered the interview room, there were 3 female interviewers and one of them was a manager. That manager was very difficult to handle....She kept shooting me questions and trying to make life difficult. I tried my best to answer the questions liao. I went out of the room with a bad feeling, thinking that I might not be able to get the job. There was another girl waiting for interview when i left. Haiz...temp job also so strict, no wonder they say that company is very difficult to get in... so jia lat cant even get a temp that i want.

Job Offer, but I never accept...

2005-06-07T18:43:00.000-07:00

The Recruit Express guy asked if i can give them an immediate answer regarding the 4mths temp contract $6.50/hr job. I told them that the pay is really too low...then he asked me what is my expected pay...i told him maybe about $8/hr...but still im reluctant about it...still think its too low as compared to a perm job...Then he discussed with his collegues and called me back and offered me $8/hr..... Wow, they really eat so much of our pay....think they can actually go higher but they eat them! I asked him to give me some time to consider then he asked me to call him back in an hr...so quickly, i called Zann and asked for her advise. When she heard me complaining about the pay and also gotta commit 4mths for the job and worried of losing perm opportunity, she told me that actually i already made my decision since i was complaining all about the bad points...heh which i dint really realise until she mentioned. After that, i also msned Yiling, Weilin and Bryan to ask for their opinions. All supported my decision so i grabbed the phone and rejected the guy...

Two interviews in day

2005-06-07T16:57:00.000-07:00

Woke up early in the morning to find my way to the company in Tuas known as Turbine Overhaul Services. This job is supposed to assist a lady in HR admin duties as she is going to take over the duties of another pregnant lady going on maternity leave. Its only 4mths contract and $6.50/hr =( The working environment seems not bad and the staff looks v friendly. The interview seems smooth too.
After that, i travelled to Tanjong Pagar for the other interview. This is the perm HR Executive/Manager position. This interviewer was more difficult to handle haha..He asked me what i know about HR and also gave me scenarios and asked me what i would do if i were appointed. For instance,
He asked:"How would u improve the company's productivity." I was thinking "oh cham, this isnt going to be easy...",
I crapped:"We can give feedback forms for employees so that they are able to voice out their complaints and what is needed to improve on. Then from there, we will try our best to solve the problems and cater to their needs. As long as the employees are satisfied, they will have more motivation in their work and thus perform at their best to contribute to the overall productivity of the company."
He asked again:"If employees are satisfied but still no improvement in productivity?"
So i answered:"Then perhaps we can conduct a 360 degree appraisal from the employee's collegues and immediate superviors to evaluate their performance."
He asked:"If its found that the employees doesn't perform well, what shld be done?"
I said that:"Maybe we can give a consultation with the employee and tell him what is the area that he/she need to improve on.
He threw the difficult qn at me:"What shld be done if the employee nvr improve."
Haha...i tot awhile and answered:"...Then...very sorry lor..." the employee would have to leave the company.
This interviewer hor dun wanna give up asking then said me:"What if the employee becomes very angry at you and said that you are heartless?"
Then i laughed and said:"Its quite natural for them to be angry so i will just let them scold and vent their frustration and will tell them very sorry again haha..."
He also asked me what i will be able to contribute to the company if i am selected...
I said that my being diplomatic and tactful, would be v useful in HR for the company...He even asked if i know employment laws....haha i already threw them away after i finished my exams liao how can i remember?...
So i said:"Hmm...i did study it in university but it was abt a year ago and think the employment laws may have made certain adjustments..."
He said:"tats means not too sure la" then wat else can i say...i can only laugh and say yea....

When i asked him how long it would take for me to know if i'm selected anot, he replied about 1 week...haiz think i dun have much chance for this job also...

Recruit Express asked me to give them an answer as to whether i want to take up the 4mths contract anot after my perm job interview...i was in a dilemma...but now think i will wait...cos $6.50/hr is really too little and need to commit 4mths...furthermore, i got a call from GMP recruit abt submiting my resume to the company for a 1yr contract HR Assistant job at Toa Payoh and pay abt $1800+- with benefits. I dun wanna give up hope on finding a better pay job yet...

Truly, Madly, Deeply...Hunting...

2005-06-06T17:13:00.000-07:00

Don't get the wrong idea! Its not what u think...I'm not hunting for men. I'm hunting desperately for jobs. I received 2 calls for interviews tml. One is a contract HR job at Purbine Overhaul, which involves recruitment of operators and technicians at Tuas and odd hrs from 7.30am - 3.30pm and is only $6.50 per hr. The other is a full time HR Executive/Manager at Web Publishing House, which involves full spectrum of HR duties including payroll at shenton way. I really hope i can get the latter this time. Im getting desperate....my friend just told me she got a job offer for HR and Admin post and signing the contract tml! Though happy for her, I still feel very envious. Here i am, rotting in front of my computer for more than a mth and she only waited for half a mth to get a job and in one that i like! Another friend also just quitted her job end of May and already found a job too (though shes in different field). Haiz...im so sad and stress now. Gotta find a job soon...all my jobless friends are leaving me liao...

Sports Bra Hunt with Lil Sis

2005-06-05T18:22:00.000-07:00

Went Causeway Point today with my little sis 'cos she needed to buy her sports bra. I realised that its been quite long since i shop at Causeway Point too. Now that its a Sunday afternn plus Great Singapore Sale, Causeway Point was packed with alot of shoppers. There was Love 97.2FM conducting some games at the ground floor and giving away some goodie bag to their listeners. Anyway we went Metro and look at the bras. I saw a mannequin wearing a pinky bikini. It looked very nice and i could'nt resist trying it. But i think it doesnt looks tat gd on me 'cos of my flat chest lol. Guess i better stick to my tankini. Anyway, i saw this uncle looking the mannequin wearing the same bikini that i tried. He was looking at it for quite awhile, lol then i told my sis theres this weird uncle looking at the bikini mannequin hehe...I had no intention of buying any for myself. But then when we were queueing up at the cashier, i saw a light pink tube bra and took a liking to it. Since its free size, i just grabbed and bought it without trying haha. Maybe he is rite, i really shop very fast...

My Driving Sux; SMS surprise

Sob~ think my driving can't make it...haiz..dunno i can pass my driving exam anot...kenna scolded by my driving instructor...

Got an sms from an unknown hp no. today. Asked mi: "Dear friend, so long nvr contact, how have u been?" I was thinking dunno if the person got the wrong no. or i dint update the no. in my sim card when i changed my hp. So i asked the person his/her identity. He replied his name and how he knew mi last time. I was still abit blur 'cos i can't remember who he is. Then slowly, i had a vague idea. I chatted with him b4 in ICQ last time. i think almost a year ago liao -.-" I dun even remember i gave him my no. b4 hahaa... So he got to know that im looking for job now and offered to help mi by fowarding my resume to his friends. Hee think its ok to give it a try lor. Who noes, scarly really got lobang. This is what i call Networking, lol.

Arggs its Recruit Express again

2005-06-02T18:57:00.000-07:00

yea rite, i got a call from Recruit Express again. Yes, its the same one at Jeast. But its for a different position i applied. This time round its Admin Executive and under a different agent. This guy agent is nicer than the gal agent who interviewed mi last time. As usual, i need to fill in their form then wait for the interview. He interviewed me then started to recommend me their own Recruitment Consultant job. I was thinking:"Lol, i came for the interview for that position by ur collegue a few weeks ago but wasn't selected and i was glad about it too." He seemed very sincere and enthusiastic in promoting his job to me, though i made excuses and tried to answer no a few times. In the end he asked mi if i wanna try considering it, i just laughed and told him sorry, cos that is not my preference. Then he finally got it and said ok he will help mi look out for HR jobs as i told him its my 1st preference. He told mi that with my qualifications, being an admin will be under utilised lol. ok, nice guy u better help me find a job that is fit enuff for me. =D

KTV Orchard again

2005-05-29T22:19:00.000-07:00

This was a very last minute decision. Meiling and i were bored at home today. We msned each other then decided to go Jurong Point for shopping at 1st. But we changed our mind at 2pm and decided to go KTV at Orchard Party World at 3pm. So 2 bored gals went KTV together on a rainy day. Sing duets together and imitate the guy's part 'cos we had no guy to sing the part. >.< However we did get to sing alot of songs since we had only 2 ppl. After KTV we went Cathay Cineleisure basement for dinner. Theres a jap food cafe there selling udons, rice, bentos etc. The price is also quite cheap, around $5. I ate the teriyaki chicken bento and it was nice. Think its quite worth it. Reminds me of SIM's jap bento....After that we walked around abit in Orchard but realise tat its quite sian liao 'cos we had been shopping ard Orchard for the past few weeks...so after awhile, we decided to call it a day.

My Interview at Hi-P

2005-05-26T21:44:00.000-07:00

Today went to Hi-P International for interview at 5pm. I waited for more than 1hr for the manager 'cos she was very busy. Everybody started to go home and rain also come and go...
All the staff there wear a yellow pullover shirt no matter they are technical or management staff. Gives the impression of unity. Finally, the manager came and took mi to a conference room at the 5th level. I was abit surprised when i was given a 20 MCQ IQ test. I was told to complete within 20 mins time. The questions mainly ask the sequences of patterns given and also mathematics. After the IQ test, the recruitment manager interviewed me. She asked me quite alot of questions regarding my schools, area of studies, past working experience, family values, personal career milestone, abt HR, and also about their company. I was glad that i did some research on Hi-P b4 going for the interview. I think i did ok for the interview. She told me that there are still some candidates who are scheduled for interview too. Therefore, she will let me know by next wed if i am shortlisted. I really hope i can get this job. MUST PRAY PRAY hor.

Bugis Trip

2005-05-25T23:15:00.000-07:00

Today i got a call for an interview tml for a HR Officer position at Jeast International Business Park. The company name is Hi-P International Ltd. It is an MNC manufacturing company. I really hope i can get this job. Hence, when Zann asked mi to go Bugis shopping with her today, we also went to the temple to pray. I also chou qian but i got a bad qian....sob...nvm i need to believe in myself.
I went to Ros n Roy to trim my eyebrow. It cost me $13 but it was worth it 'cos i think its very nicely done. I also bought a cake eyebrow and magic eye tip from Missha.
Today he also confirmed with me about friday. I was glad that he did keep to his words.

Shopping Spree

2005-05-23T23:07:00.000-07:00

Went out with Christin and Huifang to Orchard today. Lol...everytime i go out with this group of friends, im sure to be spending $ hahaa...'cos they always influence me to buy something i like lol.
I bought 2 halter tops (one is pink, and the other is pure white) and spagetti strap top. That spagetti strap top's print is very nice, then the back of it is the eye-catching part haha...'cos its only to be tied up as a ribbon, leaving the back abit bare and sexy hehe...even bought a nice black bra to go with it (忽隐忽现) ^_^
After sharing some views and opinions with them and my other friend, i suddenly realised im so stupid when it comes to affairs of the heart...think now i shld learn from them and i guess i noe wat to do liao... haha..

2005-05-21T22:08:00.001-07:00

When we went Cineleisure ytd, we spotted these very cute toys, with alot of different designs. This time round, Starusticity is the one who bought these dear little toys for each of us. We randomly chose 4 different colored boxes (with no idea what kind of designs would be inside). The above picture shows the one that I had picked.

2005-05-21T22:08:00.000-07:00

This cute little vibrator mouse is a gift from Hoppo. Once the tail is pulled, the mouse will start to vibrate. As you can see, mine is the yellow mouse, Hoppo has blue, Starusticity's one is orange and Tashes has a bright pink mouse. Thanks Hoppo, i will keep it in my bag and bring it wherever i go =D

Swimming

2005-05-18T22:43:00.000-07:00

Today joined Zann for swimming at Clementi Swimming Complex. It has been...wow 8 mths since my last visit to a swimming pool...thats very long....The last time i went was in September at Wild Wild Wet. My swim suit was only worn about once or twice since i bought it...Hahaa...too long nvr exercise liao...only swam 1 lap already pant like hell...swam a total of 4 laps during the 2hrs lol...and don't get the wrong idea, its not the length that i swam...its the breadth lol...can see that i'm very poor at swimming >.< Hee...i spent most of the time soaking in the water and enjoying the feel of it. 真没用。。。only swim alittle already feel my arms getting suan liao -.-

Orchard Part 2

2005-05-15T23:39:00.000-07:00

Today went Orchard again with Meiling at abt 2+pm. We realised that both of us are not very good shoppers...lol...so we walked all over Orchard and chatted...dint buy anything...oh yea, we saw a Buddhist event in Orchard and there is a booth where we can choose a colored paper (which represents different meaning for different color) and write all our wishes inside. Then we can put the paper into the respective colored containers. We chose red color, which represent '吉祥'。Heh, i managed to squeeze in 4 wishes inside the small paper =D Hopefully, all of them will come true...Tired of walking, we decided to find a place to sit down and chatted about life....till 8.30pm before heading home...

Orchard Part One

2005-05-14T23:41:00.000-07:00

Supposed to go KTV today but Meiling had a sore throat and also 'cos of some factors, we decided to cancel it. Yiling and I went shopping at Takashimaya and saw Serine today. Theres a sales at Taka Square so we went to have a look. I bought a bag that yiling recommended heh and its a multipurpose bag =D. Also bought my 1st round earring today.
P.S. Hoppo, be strong and i wish everything will turn out well for you.

Reckless Driving -__-!!

2005-05-12T22:21:00.000-07:00

My driving is still lousy....My instructor told me that whoever who just had their meal would have thrown up if they travel in my car....lol... Learned reversing and U-turn. Next lesson will start to learn parking. Well, at least my car dint go dead on me this time...(自我安慰 >.<)

Nanyang KTV

2005-05-04T21:24:00.000-07:00

Today went to Jwest extension's KTV near my old house. Its called Nanyang KTV. We went there before 2pm so there was a lunch package. The lunch was quite good. A plate of rice with vegetable and slices of tomato fish. Each person are allowed to order 2 drinks. i ordered ice lemon tea and fruit punch. Their fruit punch is nice if it is not that sweet. They have quite a variety of songs too. Both of us chose alot of songs lol and we treated this session as a training session haha...trying to learn some songs that we seldom sing in ktv. In the end, we also cant finish all the songs we chose...The bill was about $26 for 2 person. Well, considering the nice lunch and 2 drinks plus snacks, its quite reasonable.

Cos they can really make my heart sing...

Loreal/Maybelline/Garnier Sale!!!

2005-04-29T18:29:00.000-07:00

I went to the sales yesterday with a friend. It was the 1st day and it was supposed to be starting at noon. We reached abt 15 mins early but already there was a long queue waiting... We dun need to wait long to enter the warehouse. Big plastic bags were given to everyone. Many ladies can be seen grabbing all that they could. Most items are about 4 for $20 or 5 for $20. Garnier facial wash was only 6 for $10! How cheap! The crowd kept increasing every minute. The queue for cashier started to get longer and longer...lucky they prepared enough cashiers and the queue moved quite fast. In the end, i bought 23 items: mascaras, blushers, liquid foundations, lipstick cum lip liner, nail polishes, facial tissues, facial wash, hair gloss spray, hair mask.
Total spent = $99. Each item only cost about $5! Hehe these should be able to last me quite long liao. Hey, i heard the sale is still on until tml so you still have a chance to grab them!

全世界失眠

2005-04-16T09:51:00.000-07:00

想起我不完美你会不会
逃离我生命的范围
想着你的滋味我会不会
把这个枕头变得甜美
*想起白天的约会忘了晚上的咖啡
只怕感情如潮水远离我梦中的堡垒
*一个人失眠全世界失眠
无辜的街灯守候明天
幸福的失眠只是因为害怕闭上眼
如何想你想到六点如何爱你爱到终点
(一个人失眠全世界失眠
无辜的街灯守候明天
幸福的失眠只是因为害怕闭上眼
如何想你想到六点
如何爱你爱到终点
如何爱你爱到终点)
想起我的时候你会不会
好像我一样不能睡
想象你的暧昧我会不会数不到绵羊一双一对
Repeat *

中箭

2005-04-15T10:59:00.000-07:00

他恨下雨天他酷爱古典乐
他沈默寡言他时常逛书店
那一天他讲了丘比特常失手
爱情太危险他跟我约好了让彼此自由一点

我开始思念和他的每一天聊了一整夜
说自己的从前忽然在心里面
我隐约有一种痛的感觉
也许是我被他命中了我心中的缺

我猜是我中了箭在遇上他第七天
那一瞬间我有些晕眩
像全世界从此被偷走时间
我中了爱情的箭很痛但是心很甜
我躲不开也不想避免
他没发现郄在我身上应验我中了一箭

My New Job

2005-04-05T19:30:00.000-07:00

Heres an update on my 1st 2 days of work:

I am being attached to a lady who is going to leave the company in a month's time. She was with the company for a year plus (and that is considered quite long liao over there). I am going to take over her duties after she leave. I still have alot of things that i dunno...so i just sit beside her and watch the procedures. There is a guy who came a week earlier than me and he was already handling the customers liao...alot of staff there are leaving the company...i heard from them that the average turnover rate is about 3 mths...thats fast -.-" guess i better faster look for a new job soon...haha...

There are also some wierd students there...one of them is a very regular "problem" customer. This china guy keeps coming back to ask questions...he always have alot of things to ask and he came back for 2 consecutive days wearing the same blue color long sleeves shirt (w/o tugging in) n shorts. Wonder if he has many of the same color shirt or he wear back the same clothes =x
There are also some impolite ones which tells the friend not to thank my collegue since its her job to help him...how rude...
However there are also some cute ones who likes to joke also. Sometimes also got some nicer looking ones...(hehe can have eye candy)

I havnt got the chance to know much of the collegues yet..the few i know better are going to leave soon de...haiz...

KTV Nite!

2005-03-30T14:13:00.000-08:00

Yesterday went for KTV again. Yes, again. Xiaoqi got another free room voucher and i was feeling quite bored lately...This time round, we went to Woodlands Civic Plaza's Party World. I was surprise cos i dint know that there is a KTV in woodlands (even though im living there...). Xiaoqi told me that she will be bringing a friend. In the end, she brought 5 friends: mi (her sec friend), her NTU friend, and her 3 other volunteer friends. 1 guy, 5 girls in total. Though each person sang fewer songs, but it was quite fun and her friends are nice too. Her NTU friend really very havoc also, just like our little Ash here. haha...anyway we sang till 11.45pm and it was 12midnite when i reached home, fell asleep instantly after bathing -.-zzz

Accepted!

2005-03-28T14:52:00.000-08:00

I called to accept the job today. They are unwilling to raise my pay...Luckily, the benefits and pay still not bad...15 days annual leave, 14 days medical leave, hospitalisation 60 days leave, dental treatment, chalet $60 (too bad no shift allowance). Going to sign the employment letter this wednesday morning...and officially start work there on next Monday!!! Tashes told me on msn today that I better cherish the rest of my free time now...

Offer!

2005-03-25T10:28:00.000-08:00

After the interview, I was pretty confident that they will offer me this job. However, I got the notice earlier than expected. I received the call from Informatics just after i reached home from the interview. They offered me the position. For a moment, I was overjoyed. But it died down like a pail of water being thrown on fire when the lady told me the salary. I stated my expected salary higher than the amount offered. That amount offered is the same as my previous job's salary. I was hoping for a higher pay =(
This job needs to work rotating shifts and weekends. There is 2 shifts, one from 8.30am to 5.30pm; the other from 2.30pm to 10.30pm (I hate going home at night!). In one mth, there will be 3 weeks whereby I need to work 4 weekdays and 1 of the weekend (weekend is from 8.30am to 5.30pm also). The remaining 1 week is the normal 5 weekdays work.
I havn't give her my answer yet. I am supposed to reply on Monday morn. At 1st I was thinking not to take up the job. However, after some thoughts, I feel that perhaps I should accept first. Anyway this is a full time perm job w/o contract, I can work while look out for better jobs at the same time. (can go for interview on one of the weekday that I'm off work =D)
I still harbour hopes that they can raise my pay abit, although she already told me that they can only offer that amount to me. I will be asking her again on Monday and about the leave and benefits.

Oh btw, the position will be under the IT school department and workplace is situated at Jurong East near the Science Center. Do u think i made the right choice of accepting this job 1st? I still have 3 days to reconsider...

Another Interview

2005-03-23T20:04:00.000-08:00

Just got a call today asking me to go down for an interview tml at Informatics as Customer Care Executive. The job has shifts and weekends. I just got to know from one of my current collegue that her previous job was Customer Care Executive there too. She said that the environment is ok but the main reason she quit from there was because of the long hours. Heard that if its the afternoon shift, might have to work till quite late about 10pm+. Well, i decided to give it a try and go for the interview tml.
Hopefully, the other applications that i sent out on the same day as this application will give me some response soon too. Because one of them seems quite interesting. Its a job at a matchmaking agency and job scope is to arrange meetings, restaurant bookings, etc.
Interesting, isn't it?

Ash, U will be very interested in this!

2005-03-17T22:21:00.000-08:00

My brother found a website with alot of manga to download! (free!) It has alot of well-known manga and you can download them chapter by chapter. Even have Ash's favorite One Piece. Take a look HERE!

I can't blog

2005-03-17T21:00:00.000-08:00

The computer i'm using at the office is now currently having some problems: too many spywares, can't go in msn as well as can't type anything on websites. So I can't blog in the office now...I can't msn...the only form of entertainment now is to read my chinese stories online when i don't receive any calls. I won't be able to update my blog as and when I like now.

Too busy

2005-03-15T21:07:00.000-08:00

Im soo busy today. Calls non-stop again because of the release of school posting results. I hardly have anytime to write blogs or read my online chinese romance stories (寻梦园)... Worst, we get irritating callers who keep blah blah blah all the way.

I got this caller asking the reason why she was being rejected for the programme. Patiently, I told her that this is based on no. of vacancy and merit. Furthermore the course that she applied for is very popular. She kept saying that she was qualifed for the minimum entry requirement and kept on asking me the same question...i repeated and told her that she could still appeal for the course. But this stubborn and hysterical woman must be either very upset about the outcome or too stupid to grasp what I was telling her. So she went on insisting to speak to someone in charge. Alright fine, so i asked for her number, and told her that we will get the person in charge to call her back. Its not enough for her. She still insist on asking the name of the person in charge. We really have no idea which person in charge will be calling her so I told her the person will call her later. Then she complaint how come we don't know what is the name of the person in charge blah blah blah...During the call, I put her on hold to consult my supervisor regarding this issue. However, I pressed the wrong button by accident and the call ended. -.-" Well, I knew this crazy woman will definitely be calling back and %^#%%%$# at us. My supervisor knew about the whole situation and just by coincidence, she picked up her call. And, not to our surprise, she #$#$%$^% us. We already apologised to her but think nothing will get into this crazy woman's head. At the end of the call, she told my supervisor that our customer service sux. Only 3 words appear in my mind: "Siao cha bo" (means crazy woman in hokkien). I understand she is upset about not being selected for the course but she dont have to sulk and blah blah blah at us. We are not the ones responsible for her not getting into the course! SHE is the one who should go to face the wall and do some reflection. Its her own result. If she really study hard enough and get better grades, she wont be rejected in the 1st place! Can't stand these people....Don't want to study and still think that they should get the course when they need to compete with so many people who have better grades and applying the same course.

1st time out on the road!

2005-03-14T09:24:00.000-08:00

Yesterday morning i went for my driving lesson again. This was only my 3rd lesson. And I'm told to drive on the road! This is the real thing. Feelings of anxiety washed over me. Am I able to do it? I calmed myself down and started to told myself that this was just like playing computer games. "Like every computer games I played, I will be able to master them after some practices." I thought. But things were not that simple because this was REAL, and i did not buy any insurance -.-" So i tried to gather all my concentration and drive very cautiously and carefully...At the end of the lesson, i felt a sense of satisfaction even though my car went dead a few times on the road near the traffic lights. Lucky there were not many cars on the road...

Money fly away :~(

2005-03-12T17:44:00.000-08:00

This morn went for my 2nd driving lesson. There are still a few times when i release the cluch too fast and the car went dead...But after a few rounds, I felt more comfortable with the control and was able to make some improvement.

Done some calculations below to estimate my expenditure:
1) Paid $62 to the instructor today for the lesson as well as the booking of driving exam. (plus the amt of $6 i owed him last week)
2) $295 for rebonding, treatment, cut and wash of my hair at Jantzen! (wah lao so expensive...heart pain...)
3) SingTel handphone bill $23
4) Starhub Cable 6500 Maxonline $80
5) Plus tml's driving lesson fee of $36

Total = $496

!!!! I spent abt $500 in 2 days!!! (Fainted....)

Sakae Sushi

2005-03-12T17:26:00.000-08:00

Last nite after work, I met up with Weilin, Christin and Huifang at Bugis Junction for dinner. As Huifang had not reach yet, the 3 of us decided to wait for her at Sakae Sushi. As we are talking away happily, I started to feel my stomach growling and my mouth salivating as I eyed at the plates of sushi beside me...I grabbed my favourite gyozas and tempura but ended up disappointed at the cold dish...Christin and Weilin started to order Salmon Nabe and I ordered Nabeyaki Udon. When Huifang arrived and asked us what we had ordered, Weilin said:"Na-be!" (erm...a very sensitive word in Hokkien -.-"). Anyway, their "Nabe" came but mine was yet to arrive so we talked and waited. And waited, and waited....where is my "Nabe"?! We had already informed the waiters abt 3 times and there was no sign of my "Nabe", erm i mean Udon...Finally when it arrived, i was already quite full...How am I gonna finish this?! The 3 of them were not willing to help me...I ate the udon slowly, little by little, I could feel my stomach bulging as every few seconds passed by...I kept forgetting the little fried prawn that came with the dish...I was finally able to finish almost all of the Nabe udon, thanks to their "encouragement". By then, I was feeling like a pig. So full, yet so sleepy...

P.S. Huifang, thanks for the treat.

Calling

2005-03-11T08:41:00.000-08:00

Yesterday on the way home, i suddenly received a calling from an unknown voice from deep within me. Well, the inner voice told me:" What the heck, just go and give it a try. Maybe you are destined to be a teacher after all...since you have those kind of teacher look (pui, more like 'treachery' look to me). Besides, your mom has been nagging you and promoting teaching as a career every now and then." And so, when i reached home, I went online and and read all information about teaching. I decided to give it a try. I sent my application for a teaching post to MOE. Wonder if there would be any chances for me...I don't place too much hope in it =x

Anime Pictures!

2005-03-10T17:22:00.000-08:00

Naruto

This is Naruto and his buddies, Sakura and Sasuke. Too bad Rock Lee is not in the picture.

Bleach

Kurosaki Ichigo, Rukia and his classmates. A must-see anime!

Yakitate!! Japan
Azuma and his fellow collegues. A hilarious anime! This show keeps me laughing and I always can't wait to see what is the next reaction of those ppl who eat Azuma's bread known as Ja-pan.

Animes

2005-03-10T16:07:00.000-08:00

I simply love to watch jap animes! Most of them are derived from well-known comics. Comics are too expensive...However, I can just download animes from the internet for free!!! For just 15mins, I can finish downloading a full anime episode! (Muahhaaaha that is because of my cable dl speed of 6.5mbps). For those 56kbps connection ppl, I would just say: "That's too bad. Its time to upgrade ur internet connection plan. " Anyway, i always go to animesuki website every week to check if there is any new release episodes. After downloading, i will always watch them with my brother who shared similar interests as me. The current animes that we are watching every week without miss would be the well-known Naruto, Bleach, Yakitate!! Japan, and Xenosaga: The Animation. Don't just have this perception that animes are only for children. If you watch them, you will know what I mean. Because, it is so easy to get addicted to it.

New Blog!

2005-03-09T21:05:00.000-08:00

Just created a new blog titled Hearts n Such. I have created a link to it. 请多多捧场！Think i will use it for writing anything that comes to my mind. This current blog will only be used as my diary.

Pleasant Surprise!

2005-03-09T16:29:00.000-08:00

I just got home from my interview at Ministry of Law. This is what happened at my interview:

I had a very pleasant surprise when i entered the waiting room for the interview. My eyes briefly scanned through the room and saw that a few other candidates were already waiting there. I lowered my eyes and came into contact with those in front of me. Recognition of each other's familiar faces gave us a pleasant surprise. We both were like "wow, u are here for the interview too!" Such an coincidence! She was Ruifen, my junior college classmate. She also lived in Woodlands, in the same area as me. We used to go home together with Shiwei and Tian Tian. We did not know that we were both applying for the same job, but here we were, waiting at the same room and she got the queue just in front of me. Haha while waiting, we were happily talking to each other while the other candidates waiting in silence.

At long last, my turn came. There were 3 female interviewers. The questions they asked are very typical. When they asked me what type of book i like to read, I started to think: "I can't tell them i like to read romance books only. Must try to act more pro." Luckily, my bro recently intro me an interesting book called The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown and told me that it is a very good book and alot of people are reading it. Hehe so i told them i am currently reading this book and they gave me that kind of "oh i know that book!" look.I heard from the friend working there that a particular dept is better than the one she is in. So i asked them which dept will the selected candidate be working in. They replied that they hadn't decided and even asked mi which dept i would prefer! So by the knowledge of the depts I gathered from my friend, I told them that i would prefer the particular dept (which my friend is not working in). Then I bullshitted something abt choosing it because it would allow me to learn more diff experience and have wider view etc. I noticed that the lady on my right keep asking me things when i said i prefered that dept.

After my interview, I went up a floor to look for my friends. Ruifen was already there talking to Xiangru. Xiangru was also fairly surprised when she knew Ruifen also came for the interview. We chatted for awhile. It was then that i realised from her that the lady interviewer on my right is from the dept that i preferred. That was why she asked more questions than the other lady from my friend's dept. After Xiangru went back to work, Ruifen and me both left and walked quite a long way to Golden Shoe Complex for lunch. Damn, it was so hot and crowdy, and my feet hurts from my covered shoes. When i got home, a big blister has already been formed on my right toe...

Ministry of Law

2005-03-08T18:00:00.000-08:00

Just got a call from Ministry of Law.
Nope I did not break any law...
Nope, I am not filed for bankruptcy...
Yes! I got an invitation for interview with them tml!
I was so excited and I knew that a friend of mine is working there. Immediately, I msg her and told her all abt it. I would never have expected her reply that her last day there would be this fri! And some bad news about politics, backstabbing, stress, nasty lawyers and bad management had me having 2nd thoughts of the company. However, I will still give it a try and see what is the outcome.

Yay! 6pm! Off work for now. Tml taking leave for interview so can have enough sleep tml and face the interview challenge.

Introduction to a new blogger

2005-03-08T10:09:00.000-08:00

I could hardly wake myself up this morn after the "vigorous" activity last night. I remembered that Xiaoqi expressed her interest in blogging and asked me to help her create a blog for her. So this morn when i had time in the office, i created a blog for her and used her fav. green color as her template. haha i even given her blog a cute link called www.xiaoqiqi.blogspot.com . Hope she likes it and welcome aboard!

KTV session

2005-03-08T09:39:00.000-08:00

Last nite, I got to sing some of my fav. KTV songs. In order for us to be on time for the KTV, we bought some plain pancakes to settle as our dinner. Xiaoqi asked her friend along and we passed our time in the KTV singing and shivering from the room's low temperature... My ears are often blissed with wonderful voices and songs whenever Xiaoqi ask me to KTV 'cos she often bring along friends who sings really well. Time flew by rapidly, and the next thing we know, its already 11.30pm...In the end, we shared cab home...

Unstopping calls...

2005-03-07T15:34:00.000-08:00

Today is the last day for the JAE and JIE application. Calls keep coming in. I barely have time enough to catch my breath. Patience is definitely a must. Because I will never know what type of calls I will get (including those irritating and long winded calls, which i had already encountered several today...makes me wanna vomit blood!)

That is why i agreed to meet Xiaoqi and her friend for a KTV session after work. Hehe long time never go KTV...hmm..dunno if if my voice still can last anot after talking non-stop for the whole day...maybe when i go for work tml, the callers will have to listen to my "sexy" croaking voice.

Bad Mood =(

2005-03-06T10:01:00.000-08:00

This early morn i was having a terrible bad mood. I couldn't find the cd which contains my melbourne and graduation photos. I was quite sure i left it in my cd rom player just 1 or 2 days ago. I searched high and low and everywhere within my house but i still couldn't seem to find it...I was in despair and started to yell at everyone who were ignoring me. And my internet connection's frequent disconnection also added more fuel into the fire. I was in a real bad mood and they were ignoring me and enjoying their vcd show and laughing away happily. I couldn't seem to help it but it just darkened my mood...In the end, I fixed the internet connection problem but i still couldn't find the cd...so sad...if i still couldn't find it, think have to ask my friend to help burn another one for me...because it contains alot of my precious memories...

My 1st Driving Lesson

2005-03-05T23:00:00.000-08:00

Went to Bt Gombak today to have my 1st driving lesson by the private instructor recommended by Siewfang. He drove me to a road where it was supposed to be used as a carpark for heavy vehicles, and cars are prohibited to go. Halfway during the lesson, the "san ban" officer came to take down car license plates for fines. (That place is too popular for private driving instructors.) He drove us further to avoid being fined and continued to teach me how to use the clutch, accelerator, brake and gear. As soon as the van that the officer drove went out of sight, we went back to that road again and this time round, I was instructed to take the driver seat. I was abit nervous, my car died once and jerked a few times because i did not grasp my control of the clutch correctly. My control of the strength of my foot on the accelerator and clutch is still not good enuff...And i still couldn't perfect the change of my gear and at the same time control the clutch n accelerator smoothly yet. By the time i am ready, my car already slowed down -.-" The scary thing was when i drove too close to the corner of the road and also another time i drove too near to a heavy vehicle parked on the side of the road...luckily it was steered clear on time with the help of my instructor... phew man, that was so close...what an experience!

well, i have already booked my 2nd and 3rd lesson on nxt sat and sun hope i will gain some improvement by then. The instructor would be helping me to register for the July driving exam. Pray i will be able to pass by then...
