Last day...

Year 2004 is going to end. Quickly rap up here. What I found in me in this 2004.

Personality - I felt like I'm quite easy to let things turn me off, easily to get angry or dissapointed.
Health - Very bad this year, I break record of my 25 years of living, visit doctor the most this year. Health become weaker. Mainly due to work stress.
Relationship - Stepping into a new status of life soon. Many things started to change, get a new living of 2 and 2 become 1.
Work - This year really learn a lot after promoted, but still feel not enough. I also learn on
my department culture, relationship within manager and team, how to deal with different level of colleagues.
A good experience.
Family - Many new borns and marriage around, happy to see the babies are growing up.
Future In-Law family - Relationship getting better, but still not my ideal one yet. Needs lot of improvement for coming years.
Financial - Still enough to survive but my target for monthly saving plan was failed to achieve, this is very bad.
But getting better on how to pampered myself. Good or bad? need money too oh...
Friends - Own friends getting lesser and lesser, besides those close one are still contact frequently, mostly if
I not call them up they won't call me. But good things is those long lost friends, I mean those not keep in touch for
years are kept calling me up for gathering. Besides that, I also get to know some new friends.

Here share with you some of the moment from office in the last few days.

Letter to Manager

Finally and finally today I submit the resign letter to manager. I hand it to her after lunch. I don't know what to say, knock her door and give her the letter with a smile, then I walked away. Hmm...feeling hard, very very hard. Not more than half an hour later, she interkom me ask me go to her room, when I'm there, Asistant manager at her room too.

First thing she asked me whether I not happy working here and what makes me have such decision. So I told her all my reasons and she accept it without further asking more and she will inform me on my last day. As told Amilia and I, both hand in letter today. We went in her room after one another.

Dismiss

Company entertainment committee leader call up for meeting today, she announced that the team is going to retired, including herself, meaning that next year comittee faces no longer the same group of ppl. She gave each of us some words of appreciation for working together for 2 years time in organising event. Her words to me: "I likes you very much, Judy in a way that you are very reliable, thank you very much for staying up till today and help us in all event".

Well, actually my wish was half year ago I already want to quit the team, but she ask me to stay on till end of the year to wrap all events up nicely, so this is what I promise, and now I stay until today. Is year end now, not only me want to quit in fact 3/4 of the team want to quit. Left 3 fresh blood continue carry on the team...

Next Tuesday going to hand in resign letter, feeling hard to type it actually..very hard, first time, my first time writing resign letter...gosh..I don't want my words to be too harsh and direct. Although she have been treating me a bit unfair to others..but deep inside actually I'm having very very hard feel to leave the company and my teammate. The letter I'm writing now is fill up with words of gratitude and wishes, at least I feel better that way. Today I gave her a Christmas card as seasons greeting and next Tuesday give her resign letter, on the same day me and another of my colleague Amilia will give resign letter, I dunno how she feel by then. Both of us not purposely arrange to hand in on the same day, but we each have own reasons to leave and now is the time. 2 months notice, can leave less than 2 months time after deducted the balance leave days...Count down the days I'm leaving very very soon.

Final year already now. in this company. Today I gave them each a christmas small present as a wish to them for Merry Christmas and also as an token of appreciation for working on my projects. Aside happy aside miss...hhaiii...never talk much today due to having that mood, coz really having the feeling of very very miss them..

Visit to factory and annual dinner

2 days ago I suffered leg ankle pain again. This time terrible coz the next day need to go Ipoh. The night before I feel like not going already, but I still pack up just hope that the next day will be better after apply some muscle release gel. Gosh! is getting more terrible. Before going, Brandon brought me to clinic to get some med to control and kill the pain. Doc said take 2 days to recover, he asked me to rest and not to walk too much.

This round going to Ipoh with Brandon's supplier. A annual dinner + factory visit. We went there by bus with other dealers. At noon, we reached Crickets lighter factory in Teluk Intan. The boss brought us round his whole factory, I can see now how a smaller and alim lighter produce from injap gas, to fix the top cap, QC check, printing design on it and packaging. The supervisor also explain to us along the way. Before we left, we each get a special edition of lighter, 5 in a each box, all having different design.

Crickets boss served us lunch at Lower Perak Club, Teluk Intan. Later went to visit Gua "Sam Poh". Check in hotel, we all stayed in Excelsior Hotel in the Ipoh town. At night Annual Dinner in "The Mouth Restaurant" at Green town. At the night, the boss serve his dealer Cigar. Each given a big cigar as souvenior. All cigar imported from Swiss. The whole restaurant fill with strong cigar puff. Even Brandon a non-smoker also start smoking. Ladies are also given a normal cigarrette size of coffee taste cigar to try, well I not dare to try. So I just take in the "second-hand" puff. The night all like big boss mouth having a big long cigar. Free flow are normal size of mild cigar. At the award time, the boss serve another round of cigar to the a few dealer. This good quality cigar was told that it store in a -20'C cold box.

Sunday after having breakfast, we leave Ipoh, back to KL. Today my leg feel better. But I need to get rid of this sickness, as this is my 3rd time. Very suffer every time. Is like u can't even walk properly and no mood is doing all things uuhh.. Tomorrow have make appointment with a leg therapy to check my leg.

Annual Dinner 2004

Mat-Hatters Annual Dinner and Dance Night, at Pan Pacific, Glenmarie. My last annual dinner with this company, taken a lot of photo with colleagues. A very fun night. Another of better year of annual dinner. As a committee, running all night to do all things I assigned. Not eating much, but still very enjoy the whole environment. Not a lucky draw winner and also team performance winners.

Before
Committee as one who can leave early to get prepared, but end up I work until 5.30pm, need to rush for a delay project. End up I dress up in the office and reach there by 7pm. What happen is the person in charge who do data entry for this project giving her reason and she leave the office early with others to get prepare for annual dinner instead of finish her job first. End up I asked her to speak the manager becoz of her early leave, I dunno is noit my right to let her go or not, as her work not yet done, all stay but not herself!...guess what the boss agreed to let her go and left 30 thick q'naires to me which need to punch in. End up I got no choice, I seek for help from other colleagues, of coz since I so urgent some of "them" min keong help me to punch all data in, as I need to rush for another project tabulation too. After all finish my eye and brain blur..too rush all in a few hours. Faster I get myself dress up and go for the night.

Appraisal day

Well, appraisal time 35 mins, so short in fact...step in the room when Manager call up at 4pm. Bring along the piece of form I wrote, pass to her, then she begin to review the score I hold in some job area. Half of it added 1 score others remain. Well, still quite satisfied with the score given, is the range of 7-9.

Listed also the job area I should covered and improved until next yr Dec. (oh.oh..I going to resign ya!..) sshh..no mention here ok...pretend like nothing...After that is time for me to talk and Manager talk. eem...pretty normal is not what I expected...She talked more than me and she can turn one of my bad point abt me in her own nice way..well ok..I dun really take that out voice out my reasons, coz whatever she say will be right and reasonable all time..the point is about "dun try to reject any job assign to u" ...her reason was an exec level should know how to plan time to slot in..damn! same dateline how to manage to do both in 1 day. Why me? why not give to other who do not have the same dateline...thats why I said she have her way. I dun sound any. Sometime the data processing work is she think that easy....like the previous day I got 3 projects in same dateline, coz of some delay and happen crash up all in 1 day. I didn't complain it. As I know is not what I want. But those project having same date before hand dun pass to same person la..this is not the matter that I know how to plan my time or no..to others also they should know that not try to give same person to handle same project dateline.

Another complain is about one of my regional job timing given is very short all the time and the problem I have with the having-her-own-world and straight-forward Researcher. Hope this is improved and not carry forward to the next person in-charge of this project after I leave.

Good luck my colleague. Sometime is very fed-up facing the "fake" faces..whereby manager having own fav team and all circumstances happen to her fav team to "them" they still feel good coz got at the back got protector there. well I just do whatever drop on me now. I just wan to leave in peaceful. (^_^),v

Gemini Employee Profile

Gemini employees can have difficulty concentrating on one thing for long periods of time. They have quick-moving minds and love to talk and communicate their ideas with others. They thrive on social interaction -- even if their jobs don't particularly support it. You'll be able to find them wandering from desk to desk gossiping about all the sordid news in the office. They can be powerful persuaders in their speech and make ideal salespeople and mediators. They love to negotiate and can work out the best Deal for everyone involved.

When properly stimulated, they can manage to keep their wandering mind focused and actually be quite productive. When they are bored, bogged down with mundane detail- work, or forced to work with people who they consider droll, they can become mean-spirited and gossipy. Their moods can fluctuate vastly day to day, as well as their productivity.

It is really against their nature to be forced into an average workday schedule and environment. They are happier traveling. lf they are in an office they will need constant new stimulation.


Most will be wanting advancement if they see this as a way to escape the limitations of their jobs. This can motivate them to put extra effort into their job. If you work with a Gemini, try to avoid getting into any debates with them - they will surely win and it could end in some hard feelings on your part. They will need an accepting environment-one that supports their need for multi-tasking.

I still love to move around

Trial Yogilates at this Yoga Studio Tmn. Desa. Wow...many stretching and pulling steps...nothing is easy in Yoga. I don't like it, I still prefer those aerobics kind of classes. Coz can move and hip around, Yoga is repeat the same step many many time and need more focus. I not sweat as much like I have during classes workout.

Gain body ache after 1 day trial, especially my shoulder, arm and thigh part. Yoga movement is more focus on abdominal and spine.

Still remember I crazily join all contest on last issue of CLEO, guess what I got call up from them and I won myself 2 complementary passes to Fitness First for 1 day workout from 7am - 7pm, only can attend FF Damansara Uptown.

Friends are helping hand

I rarely ask friend for help. In fact, friend in deed are friend in need (am I right?) This is very very true, whenever I need a helping hand, friends are there for you. During my these 2 weeks of wedding preparation, I really deep in touch with their help. As I need contacts for makeup artist, inviation card material, tailor, beautician, costume, as whatever I need, I asked for their recommendation. I got their calls day after days for those contacts they have. Friends you all are so great, thank you very much, all effort are appreaciate.

My closest cousin sis, Evan, my bridemaid to-be, she also lend her helping hand in searching for the contacts and on and off she did gave me a lot of advise, even she is younger than me, she can tell from experience, for those wedding occasion she attend /come across.

Today during office hour, since not much urgent work to do, I call up all the contacts on hand to ask more, make comparison and fix appointment. Really... many many things to do and to go on. Are you boring reading my blog lately? all..... writing about wedding preapation? haha..yes, is pretty more to go.... read hard ^_^

Shop..shop..shop

Today read this article in Star paper Compulsive shopping a sign of deeper problems. You see, topic and things to do with shopping, sales ad sure caught my attention. Really a problem if we shop without control. The topic describe some point really closed to me, but for me I'm still not to that extend la...eg.

A number of people become shopaholics to cope with their low moods. They don’t need, or particularly want, an item, but shopping makes them feel better, so they become compelled to do it.

“I shop quite a lot, almost everyday, because I work near a shopping centre. I don’t really buy expensive things but I will buy whatever I like without really thinking about it. It makes me feel good especially after a bad day at work,” says Wong.

It is very true that shopping really can make us happy and feel good. When tension, anxiety or depression, this is one of the activity I used to do. I control myself by using those I have in my purse only, not not and no no to touch credit card. Once I swipe the amount won't be small.

Gal..gal..gal..forever having great wish list, and the desire is never ending. The major one is they do not have enough shoes and cloth. is it? give me 5 !

Dad's word

I have a friendly and open minded dad, since young he seldom shout at his children. Thats why I so love to talk to him. Anything I happy, unhappy, any problem, difficulties I will talk to him. We share a lot of story, as he can share his experience and how to deal with situation, so that I will be take pre-caution and know how to make wise decision. Sometimes I even throw my frustration I faced to him...haha..well he really have the great power to clam me, comfort me and cheer me.

Today I discuss with my dad about I want to have another investment policy. He certainly agree with me to take an investment one, because the return is better. Get at young age which cover all in 1 is better after all. So I still doing comparison within Great Eastern and Prudential about the coverage area in the policy. I should get one after listen to my dad advise.

See from an undecided one to decided really makes a lot of different. After listen to his advise I got more confident in doing all things. I don't know how one day if this great dad is not with me all the time.

Treasure all the moment with your loves one!

Good day

My lovely cousin sis SMS me early morning 2.40am. Rupa-rupanya she invites me to join her party this Friday at Bar Fly. Not mention anything going on, but I know is her birthday la..Well still thinking on whether to join or not..no partner to go with me :( but I really hope I can be there.

This morning listen to this WA FM 97.6 while going to work. Host by KK and Chui Ling. Both really create a lot of laughter in the morning. Although morning time not much latest info and news to present, normally they more on create topics. Sometimes I feel they crazy, 'pak chi' and 'san pat', on the way they talk. But they really create little laughter in the morning, which really cheer me up. This morning they came back with the session "tai zing gu". They call a 'unknown', KK talk in gal voice address the person with not the correct name, then they start talk non-stop on the phone, without let any chnce for the person who they call to answer and ask, this makes the person feel funny and curious, and in actual they don't know who is the one who calling them. Really farny..hahaha....all talk rubbish and crap, actually no special meaning just laugh on the crap and they way they talk...

My ex-colleague came to office visit us after office hour, he sent us 'red boom' for his wedding, mid of this month. He sent out quite a lot to others of my colleague too. This senior of mine before, he looks fresh and more energetic than last time when he still with my company. No wonder la...he said his new company less work and less stress, may be is because small organisation. Company culture also very relax, 5 days work, from 9am-5.30pm but start work at 10am after yam cha and loafing, sometime lunch more than 1 hour!..how good is that...sooo envy..haha..hai...all my colleague include me really working die die la..work until so 'chan' in Synovate. He even get a shock when he know that we still the same handle that much of project.

Is my turn to go for ECS - Employee satisfaction survey today. Questions all ask about your work, organisation relationship to you, employer and employee relationship..etc.. . Well..almost statements I gave a below average rating compared with last year. Half an hour complete 31 questions include 2 own comment question.

Know that the company annual dinner theme going to be mad headed night (things to do about head-gear). My suggested theme not being selected :( well is ok lorr...still something fresh to do.

I got an idea to go Halo café in Subang, but I'm not so sure the way to there, just know that it was nearby Taylors Subang. Mee Yee told me she roughly know the location, therefore ok.. we go. Once we reach the area, OMG, she also lost of direction, don't know where. We 2 soh poh in the car, turn here and there to find. Then I called up Josephine to ask for exact location. She did give us direction but sounds blur blur also...so we continue use our six sense to find. Well not work la... still can't find!..no choice, I kept calling Jo for 5 times baru get to the place. Huu...tiring man, finally we found, after 1 hour.

We both sit down, and get a drink too tired found the way. hahaha...damn boring tonite 3 singers, they not really have a good voice to sing and I almost can fall asleep. Actually we have another friend joining us but last minute she left her 777. Anyway the place is start to fill up after 11pm. By the time I ciao is almost full house.

Policy review

Meet Tess (from Prudential) during lunch and she have a look on my current ING policy, she did suggested me to add on my medical card sum insured to 100k. Well after meeting up with her, I re-calculate my premium, wow..I can't take it la...I think I need to hold on Prudential and have a discuss with my current agent first to see what can I do to top up rather than taking another company one.

Today finally got meeting with committee members to plan the coming Annual Dinner. I'm again same as last year involve in Lucky draw/ performance gift. We let our fellow colleagues to vote the annual theme. Glad that my suggestion of theme "Fall and Winter Night" is on voting poll now...

I'm doing a daily check on my spending conscious, this is to record how much I really need to spend in a month. I just spend like normal nothing spend more or less due to my check. Every night from this week onward I will note down in a small book what I spend in a day. Yes, is on every single cents spend. At the end of the day I can make myself so call a budget in spending. This also help me in having more saving. Wish me luck!~~~

My best buddy

This is Carole, my best buddy since school, same class and stayed the nearest to my house. We not been contact/talked to each other since half a year ago. She got angry with me and another friend over a holiday trip matter. Well, I kinda used to her pattern, all she need is time to heals.

Carol and her NZ uni-mate

Even we not contact each other but from time to time I do sms her and email her. She not replied me means it shows that she still angry with me. But, few weeks ago finally got her reply. Today is her birthday. This day I will never forget. Last night, I bought her a birthday present and Strudels Strawberry tart, just hope that I can do something to save this friendship. I just pass it to her family since she not yet back from work. Finally...finally late night, she called up and thanks for the present. She told me she just want to take the tart but not the present. Well, I kinda disappointed and tears in eye :'( Thinking tat why she like that and reject my special gift, is she still angry with me? She did explain is because she angry over the past matter and it is not appropriate to accept my gift. Thats the reasons she gives. Well ok lorr..I also don't want to force her, she will return the gift to me.

We chatted a while and she promised will call me back. After put down the call, my feel at one side is happy - because this friendship can be continue. Sad is that, she rejected my gift. I cannot afford to lost this friend, even we have hurt each other before, just hope that after every incidence we will understand each other more.

Time for a change

Been blogging for over a month, it is time for a change of my previous boring blog skin.
Previous blog skin

This new one looks fresh. I still working on improve this blog. Previous new feature you can see what in here now, eg like, Mood, chatter box, site links and counter. Next I want to add in are midi play and cute mouse cursor.

True God

Don't say that I'm so holy here or religious. I just want to understand what is the universe know about True God mean. Dad told me that today he picked up an Indian woman customer from KL, she said she going to buy the Indian God picture for praying. This is sounds same to chinese, when chinese new year, buddist will buy a new statue to pray and get away the old one. As what you can see those unwanted one under the big tree. Why? why like that? aren't there are God are the precious and holy one. My goodness..True God it should be bought in any form and God is not handmade statue..Sometimes I really so disappointed seeing people did to their "God" in that way.

Think deeply on the above situation, sometime we may follow blindly the religion carry down from generation. We should be understand that what is True God is. Should we need to buy a God to pray, should we place a God in the house, and not only one God infact a few sitting in a row. God is not in use them for a purpose to make you be wealthy. For eg. chinese like to pray their God to give them 4 digit number and grant them a dream to get rich in a night. Many many thousand of those statue God in the chinese believe and all are man made. How come not get the one who is most powerful one and get rid of others? many many other example, would not say it all here..sometime chinese did are so ridiculous.

True God is the one who can't see and can't touch, and all the time be with us and protect us. Since I was young whereby in those year I can start thinking what religion is I have realise all this and analyst religion did and way of praying. My experience was very deep especially on what I saw in my past grandparents funeral service, we followed whatever the funeral master says and did all under his monitor, did we really understand what it means behind, any prove? Wow.. I really not like it and not willing to believe in that anymore. That is the reason why I in search of christianity truth since I was 12 yrs old. Been baptist for the past 7 years. I can diffrentiate what is truth and what is not truth in the religion.

Friend out there who reading this, pls feel free to think about it and I willing to tell you more for you in search of true religion. Great day!

Night out

Went out with Mee Yee for dinner and drink at Hartamas. It seems very quiet tonight, don't have much crowd, don't know why. Mee Yee is a HR exec in a MNC. She told me many things about being in HR line and importance of a HR role in company, her job area and responsiblity. Well she having not a easy job also..hai....all working world is like that, different position having its own stress and problem. If you can take it then you can stay on, else you go. Thats it..

I feel that nowadays society we can't work and work on what we work on in a job, we also need to be in multi use and juggle in many area, very competitive now. For eg, you know master in HTML, but you do not know SQL or Java then the percentage of people in using ur knowledge and skill is less down. You know computer but also need to know how to manage others. Do you know that all knowledge can't learn from book. To me this knowledge is learn from young to old which is Society knowledge. I'm hardly to learn on this, may be because I seldom mixed with people who having that kind of knowledge. Thats why I like to listen to ppl experience and do analyst in thinking of that. I like that ask, and then listen to them. This is the way I use to get the information and knowledge in different area.

What else?

Tension

These 2 days during my work, I feel very very tension, like I can't free myself in my mind...many things seems running up and down in my mind, and I can't concentrate well, a bit bad tempered also when talking to my colleagues..my male colleague even look at me like one kind, yes, I really one kind these 2 days..OMG..wat happen to me..???!!!! emotional one...

Just now while taking bath I kept on thinking on what really makes me have that stress on. Yes, it could be when I miss someone extremely much and can't see everyday, its really makes me super tension. I think this is very bad one...so what I can do is I look at the big frame picture hanging on the wall, in the purse, besides the bed and plays that picture in my mind. This picture very powerful can kill my moment of tension and makes me relax a bit yes, just a lil bit only...

Another tension definately comes from my regional project. Ever since beginning handle this monthly job, I tension and preasure to the max, especially when newbies handle it. I need to teach and guide them like a baby step by step, it can't goes wrong. Again it is not fair, last time my senior no guide me at all, once past to me and live or died all on your hand. Well now different world already, once something not right I'm the one kena call by boss.Hmm..kena before already, I just take it easy. This is company 2nd most money making project drop on my hand, main control by HK. Yes, it went wrong today, lagi tension..the newbies this month can't handle it, he also handle many projects, so since start preparing and launch the project I take full charge of it. Today took almost 3/4 of the day to correct all the error and ammendment to the effected files. This money making project involve whole Malaysia, so can imagine how many files to correct one by one lehh...then send back to them and teach them how to load files, explain the ammendment done and also liase all the things...actually not my first time la..every project also got something not right here and there is just that whether is minor or major.

That's me. Perfectionist, causes all the preassure and tension. Thats why I need some breeze and breath. Looking forward for my Hong Kong trip to realise one day. Yeah about holiday travel plan, haii.....can't make it...cause of many many financial reasons I don't want to make myself not happy, so plan again next time.

Can someone sing me a song from Tension?

Different lifestyle and people in this world

Sometime is nice to study people's lifestyle and I like to think and analyst ppl's attitude/thinking, and how they do. Been having lunch with Karen (my colleague) this afternoon, everytime also over 1 hour when go lunch with her, coz we having too much to talk about. Like chinese have 1 saying that, 'The same rice feed hundred different kind of people' that what it means. We talked about the different reaction encounter by girls towards courtship, spending behaviour, attitude, girls single lifestyle...etc...all girl topics.

Like what Brandon shared to me before, many kind of people doing different things in Fitness. Some went for sauna only, some bath and have drink only, some read paper/mag only, some stay/loaf in the restroom whole night without doing anything, some want to know girls/friends, some chit-chat only, some looking for sales business...etc..everybody have a living skill that not doing one thing at a time, after all it is a world of competitive.

This is what I mean.

Holiday planning

Next month I have 6 days off for public holiday, and I think of going for holiday. These few days have been checking out for some trip to Hong Kong and Beijing for coming year end holiday. I think of going to HK or Singapore for free and easy. Still looking at my budget how far can I go and try to look for some friends to go on board with me. Beijing tour will need to liase with Brandon. What I think is Beijing tour can experience more, whereas Singapore and HK only for eat and shop.

Just now chat with Agnes, she pretty welcome me if I'm decide to go Singapore. She did advise me on Beijing's weather and HK one too. Been a while not chat with her and glad that she is doing fine with her pregnant life, she is going to delivered her baby girl end of November/beginning og December.

Meeting up after long time..

This morning went to Canaan Baptist Church, Sri Petaling to listen to my favourite pastor sermon section. The world is very small I met my colleague Carol, a Senior Project Director in that church. She was there to attending the English section, while I'm in chinese. Also, mum met a long time ago neighbour which stayed a few doors next to us more than 20 years ago. Others I do met a lot of members there, this last time we were together before in those event/gathering and have a quite update with them. Feeling so good that I can met them back after long time.

After having lunch with mum, we heading down to grocery store to pick up some necessary househould item. Later I went down to KLCC and Sg. Wang with Brandon, we shopped again this weekend. KLCC changed a lot and have new shop lots now. Kinda long time not went there..Brandon update his wardrobe with his newly discovered brand, while I bought a pair of shoe, shirt, contact lense and this ....


Block Buffer
This thing is use to shine your nail. Found it @ Isetan, KLCC. This sanding block, buff away uneven surface and stain of nails. Very easy to use, rub the nails at the 'buff' side to remove ridges and dead cells of nails, then turn over to the opposite the 'shine' side and rub again. This shine gives nail natural shine. Just that, its done! Nails look clean and shine.

Difference of the day

Guess what I'm doing this morning, I did something that I extremely seldom do when go to work. Thats is I put on make up this morning. Just a very light one. Once I stepped into pantry to make a Milo, cross over from cubicle to cubicle and when walk around in the office. Here are the some question and their expression.

'ei, you make up today ah?'
'why suddently make up today? not as the usual you wor..'
'what is so special to you today? why u make up?'
'ei..looks different leh today, so nice and different of you when make up...'
'moi, make up ke?..cantik la u buat hari ni..looks sweet. eye shadow brand apa pakai, colour so sweet'
'oi..oi...make up ha today, got date ah?' start looking my left and right eye 'u also having good eyeshadow ya!' then I replied her by saying her eye shadow is nicer..coz hwer technic to apply 2 shades is very special..

My replies to the above are with smiles, thanks and 'I don't have date today'. Just because I got time this morning, feeling good, so I make up. You know what, some colleague even start realise that make up really is meant for young ones and it is so powerful coz it gives big impact to our look. They even start chit-chat on make up topic. ho ho.ho...

What I make today to make it so difference. Concealer to cover obvious dark spots, i-nouvi gelbase foundation, Kose face powder tap on it (to make it long lasting, actually loose powder will do, but I don't have), Red earth sweet purple eye shadow, Maybeline lipstick, thats all...

My personal opinion, I not so used to make up everyday, coz face skin condition not that good, less use is better. Normally only for clubbing and dinner only I apply make up. All colleagues sounds so surprise when saw someone make up is because in 70% girls are not make up at all in my office..yes, I mean not even a lips stick is on.

Today works all are very very rush one, anyway still manage to kick off some messy project and request. During lunch time, too bad that MD not join us coz he booked by DiGi client to hav lunch, so left 9 of us. We ordered 6 dishes and rice, drinks and dessert somemore..my stomach full until dinner also take little only. Tracy gave each of us a pen as an appreciation gift. Eat too full of coz is ZZzzz during works...1n half hour later, Research site call for birthday celebration again..wow..eat again.. why so special is because MD birthday..ohh ok..my boss call all must go..ok la..go there stand a while la...to pay some respect to him, coz normally monthly birthday celebration not that all many people will go n sing song.

After work went to bought a gift for Wei Fern. We bought a necklace for her. Hope she will like it, from 3 of us. OK la, thats all for today, good nite...

Wednesday, October 13, 2004

Crazy looking for gift

Wei Fern (my colleague cum schmate last time) going to celebrate her birthday this coming Friday, so Karen (from her dept) suggested that we all share money and buy her a gift, this include me and Yik Yan (part time staff working in my dept now also schmate) 7 of us shared out. OK..so Karen and I suggested that either bought her a purfume or handbag. Today lunch time, we went around the survey the gift and will select it after some comparison and choice.

After lunch, Karen went to collect money from those who want to shared. At last minute her dept staff said don't want to spend on her gift now. Wow...Karen so pissed off and she intercom me and told me that. Actually I quite dissapointed also, suddently all change their mind. Now left 3 of us share off. She keep on mumble that they so stingy la this and that la...well we don't want to dissapointed her coz she always so remember and a caring girl to everyone. So we will plan again what to buy.

So while shopping for gift today before and after work, I saw a pink colour pant from Zara for it fall-winter season collection. It was so temptating. I think I gonna get it, still under considering. Well, tomorrow we will hunt again for other gift for Wei Fern. For me, if not sharing out with anyone I will treat her a meal on that day.


Hae Yong shared with me her wedding day online photo album. So many of it, I viewed it for half and hour. So sweet of her and my cousin bro. She so thoughtful that she will mail me the related family photo.

Today almost time get into preparing email to announce to everyone about the information on sports day tomorrow and also organised team leader meeting with my colleagues. Company provide new shirt and hat. Everybody getting so excited about it. But some of us as a committee member for the entertainment have been work out of the plan very hard. From the grouping to the games, equipment and food.
Hopefully it won't rain la..

During lunch time, my friend cum colleague Amilia sharing with me about her personal problem. Her bf going to Penang to establish his business, but before that he need to help his brother to learn on the business first. So her bf asked her to go to Penang with him and stay there, coz he can't hav long distance relationship. He asked her to look for a job in paper now and prepare to follow him to Penang. What she trying to tell me is that she have her own mindset not to go there with him and they even quarrel about it as he not stand her shoe and think of her condition if she going to shift to Penang. Coz till the end of the day both have own life too when still single, even they stay together, not much different in KL or Penang, but of coz Penang is totally new to her and also is not easy for her to get herself comfortable with the place. In her heart she don't want to go..much prefer to stay in KL.

Well, I give her some advise and options too.. to ask her think carefully lorr..don't know what she going to do also..hope she is fine and can think carefully for the good of both parties.

Cheering up

This afternoon having lunch with Esther to celebrate her belated birthday, I treat her a meal at Yoshinoya. Having a quite update about each other too during the lunch.

Been send email chatting with my colleague Li Li. She told me about her deceased pet a while ago and she have shared with me how her lovely cat died falling from her apartment, so pity...she still sounds sad by now and been cried for 1 week. oh... So I thought of her, after lunch I bought her a little cat magnet with a small note "BE HAPPY" to cheer her up. When I gave it to her, she tears in eye, and greatful about it.


Hill climbing

Went for mount climbing yesterday with Brandon and a 60+ yrs old uncle. This small hill located at Cheras 9th miles near Taman Quepacs. Hill name unknown, people around there used to climb at this bushes jungle like their regular exercise (salute man!) the gradiant of the hill road at point 3 and 4 can go up to 85 degrees...wow...first time climbing in my life man!

A jungle with trees and it only have single way for you to walk. Along the way there are many gear print until it like already forming steps there, as because it was too many people stepping on the same point especially those way which are really hard to go up. The path to the hill is very steep. The soil some are soft and when I stepped on it was slippery. There are 6 "Beat It" point. Point 3 have a small river, the water is fromthe hill top, quite clear and cooling. We only went up till the 5th point then go downhill. Along the way up, I need help from the small tree trunk in order to support myself to go upwards...at Point 1 and 2 is still ok, but at Point 3 and 4 is the most hard part for me..need to stop after few climb to let myself breath..wow not easy lehh...I even told Brandon this is my first and last time..hahaha..

The whole trakking takes about 2 hours. Going down the hill is quite fast as it is much more relax then going up hill...need to look carefully when going down, some small tree trunk have sharp torn, can't simply hold it.

Times have changed

Today read an article Five myths debunked in Star paper feel it was so close describe to the times now. The reality means. All this 5 points more or less did apply to me. Especially these 2 statement caught much of my attention.

1."Be frugal when you’re young, so you can enjoy life and travel when you’re old"
- I think when we are still young, don't let our young age, once a while reward ourself a short trip or something we like. Do not let go our young life and wait until old age only plan to do whatever we want. Cause if we wait until old age, I think we already do not have the stamina to make it. I'm practising now to get what I wish and want to do and works towards that.

2. "If you’re a girl, play hard to get. Always let the guy pay during a date"
-OMG, I'm not practising this la..I still spend on date. Girl nowadays are more independent compare to last time.
