bosses lunch

Went to bosses for lunch at vivocity again.

Sort of like a 'Thank You' lunch for the team for putting in the effort in the sales meeting F08.
I must reccomend the 'custard bun'. Its so heavenly. Love it when the smooth custard spill out from the bun. The lotus and pork ribs soup was not bad as well, just that it's a bit salty to my liking. Wasabi prawns was also 'out of the world'. Must try!

speaking of courtesy..
i win myself a pair of tixs for watch- Sweeney Todd - the demon barber on fleet street.
pretty musical- arty farty and 'odd' i should say.
i am giving it 3 out of 5.

anyway, courtesy of KC. he played the tracks i select last sunday.
was actually a bit overboard lah. cos i ask su_inn to make him play the tracks.
and omigod, he play like 6 of the songs leh. appreciate it all.
make me dun dare to request songs al.

aniwae, cny is coming.
time to get fat- eat chocolates, pineapple tarts, steamboat, and ....gym!

living-leaving

After trying so hard to blend in the group, I decide to give up.
I am letting go…
Those colorful balloons which I held for months, which I thought it’s beautifully attached.
I am letting go…
The fact is, they look amazing-ly surreal in the sky…

*pray hard

sales meeting @ penang

getting things ahead..

its the 15th day of the new year and i am
still not getting on the right track.
i assume its the penang sales meeting that
has been dragging me down.

its always so hard to get something easy, done.
i've started reading(jus happen to browse thru)the dictionary yesterday and felt
that i have not been learning new words nowadays and thats really sad.

i've also started to read ‘shopaholic & sister’.
and i felt alive again. i must do these more.
also time to pick up new language.
make more friends,
be happy and get individualism.

curse of the blue monday

i am always so down on mondays.
especially when i feel so sleepy, need somebody to talk to me, yet wants to be alone.
(contradicting...)

our company organisation seems to get from bad to worst.
of course i am not in the position to comment, but the turn over rate seems to high thou.
seriously, i can’t wait to get into a new job with full commitment and have some focus and really
work hard towards my goal.
i kinda feel irritated with some people in the company now, even thou we have good welfare and i
have good colleagues to work with.
people, look out for:

1. The man who has something to say everytime!- his laughter and ‘boot-licking’ character! he’s such a annoy-er
2. The woman with trememous laughter!- her laughter is like:” HAHAHAH...HAaaaa. Heee hee Haaa”. I mean, is that so funny everytime u laugh at something?
3. The woman who runs to the printer!- reminder, she’s in her fourties. no rush, girl. take your time and no one will take away your printed stuff.
4. the woman who ‘don’t know’ how to say ‘thank you‘!- she’s a nobody to me, even thou she’s a director. *bleah

of all these, i faint!

this afternoon lunch was, lonely lonely.
managed to escape from m & m’s. was badly craving for sesame paste, but still in vain.
so i had pul. hitam. something like that lah. it was a bad one.
and went over to breadtalk and get their flosses.
that’s it for lunch and i went back for a quick nap,
i love naps, especially in the afternoon. feel rejuveniate.

jen's wedding

christmas dinner at hilton

jen's wedding

Attend jenna's wedding at Orchard parade hotel on sat. It's so darn jam-packed at Orchard. Shared a cabby with ying aka my travel buddy. after the trip, i reckon we got some alikes. and on that day, we actually wore the same black color stockings. yeah, baby!

she was in this chic cool dress with black vest, while i went art-deco retro cool with a satin dress.

i wish i had more of these dress. and yes, i am definately going to get more of these.

the wed dinner went fine and i wish we had more photos with jenna, the bride who turns so glamour and demure that day.

best wishes for the couple and blissful marriage. (more photos awaiting..)

leaving for penang in another 7.5 hours. gonna get some beauty sleep.

the one and only MC

when i saw the news, i was like why got his picture?
He seldom made to headlines or anything one leh.

what happen?

then i realised that he suffer from difficult breathing and sadly, leave us this late afternoon.
I guess everyone was shocked to hear this news. even though he is not some star celebrity,
I remember watching him when i was young. funny and chubby.
its so sudden that everyone around him din know how to react.

thanks for bringing laughter during my childhood times...

Diva night...

Be going to penang on tuesday but nothing is packed yet.
yes, i have still got over the weekend to do it, but i have everyday scheduled and packed.
so guess i have to do it tonight then.
But still i am poundering whether to head for my combat class instead.

in fact, i was thinking that i might not have the time to burn off my fats next week.
anyway, small matter.

i am so muddle-headed that i hope i wont missed out any stuff.
And they are going to have some gala dinner, 'theme: boots and 1973'. WTF?
thought it should be the theme for their first year.
they should actually come out with 'The Best Bootmaker on Earth T-shirt' which is our theme this season and make everyone wear it. Simple and all Timberland-ers.

so thus, i am so messy with my wardrobe, i still got to make sure that every piece that i bring along is okay for the meeting. plus i would be doing a lot of 'allergic stuff', i dun want to look stupid and dirty.
off for the penang trip. better get cracking soon.

Jenna's wedding is coming. can't wait to see her in her wed.gown.
held at orchard parade hotel, club chinois.
sat 7.30pm.
going to take lotsa photos and keep as memories.

Thurs combat.
can i describe it in 5 words?
Fabulous, flamoyant, inspiring, spirited and addictive!
i was glad that william had such amazing tracks selection that night. plus we have the 'we are family' track, brings me back to the days where i only go for his class until his moves went from bad to worse. but for sure, i will be coming back for his classes soon.

love ya! and see ya soon!
