Lately..

Another weeks passed, start catching up the system here and since everyday keying in product code, I can memorize some of those code and price. Since establish this company is running China-man style until today. According to FiL, we need to fully computerize the accounting and invoicing system here, as currently only invoicing system is stand alone which it not automatically link up to accounting system. All this while the account work is done manually, which is very waste of time and a lot of work, that’s why now I’m helping a lot in journal posting. We are now looking on the UBS accounting system. Any good recommendation? which include of training and support.

Just shared with my dad lately, my job now is totally different environment from computer. He ask me does my computer knowledge wasted? For me I feel it is, coz looking at job wise it is a waste, coz not related already..but think at another way, computer is one of my interest field. I’m only able to spend 2.5 years doing what I’m interest. Hehe…now is different story. I’m sure no matter God put me where, He still will give me that field of wisdom and patient. That’s also a good thing for me to learn other things than computer.

Since our 8 days Beijing trip is 3 more months to go, Brandon is encouraging me to train up my stamina and hope improve health before we go. After some consideration, I have signed up Fitness First, home member of Leisure Mall, Cheras starting next month. This is the center I saw the most pack and noisy one. Since opening mid of Feb, there are 2,000+ members now, that’s why I still not yet get my member gift (bag, tumbler..etc.), things are out of stock..OMG! While I touring the workout area, none of the machine there were available, and classes are always pack and full. For those machines, when you are start using it, ppl may come to ask you when u finish using…oh…very pity man, I told Brandon that, dunno I able to fit in to do my cardio or not, else I may upgrade to passport member.

Yahoo!!! today going to go back to eat mum’s cook…very miss it…may hav my hair cut today…think of change style..see how la…

Cheers…

Just married...

Wedding events just finish and now consider settle down. Leaving down a unforgettable moment in my life. Will share more pic with u. I'm still doing it now..a total of 700+ pic taken to record down this precious moment.

Updating time...after 2 days of rest for wedding ceremony, I've start working now. From that day, I'm having new life, new work, new house, new environment, everything seems new. After got married really really feel missing home. I'm crying when I'm alone at home and when think of my mum...I try my best to adapt this new life, is not easy at first..now slowly cna used to it already.

As you know I'm working with my husband now, no longer computer environment...work in a warehouse, with only 3 staffs..I'm doing many things..everything have to learn, especially accounting and inventory system, still very hard to pick up. coz I'm not into account line...have to learn very very hard...

My routine no longer that relax like last time, now got own home, everything have to be independent and do ownself. Now learn cooking...every morning till today I cooked our own breakfast. Last Sunday, I even cooked a 3 course dinner (soup, stir fish, and vege), feel a lil bit satisfaction, first time ok..although looks simple. I used up 2 hours to prepared it. First time in my life cook this. Lou Kong, be patient with me ok...I can do better. Now due to working time, night time dinner is hard for me to do.

Will update more later.

Wedding preparation again

Wedding invitation cards all out. Dunno is it I too rush in writing the cards, I got some relatives and friends complain their name wrote wrongly, aahh..I feel so bad and very very sorry to them. Now need to call one by one to comfirm attandance, almost done. Total 31 tables. Re-arrange some seating plan, and also prepare for next Friday bachelorette at my house.

Right after back from Ipoh, I started packing up my room's thing shifted to new house, on the same time throw away some unwanted item. Things are sending to new house, batch by batch. Tomorrow, I have invite a few church members to sing praise and pray at my new house, for the purpose to bless the house.

Chinese New Year 2005

After finished all works on my last day, looked around the cubicle, left 2 ppl only..so I left the company quietly..with both hand taking my stuff..

At night reunion dinner at my uncle's house, with lots of dishes and lou sang, after that chit-chat with cousins, nieces, nephews and aunties.. Seems like this CNY is my "last" time before I married can have gather dinner with all own uncles and aunties, next year after married have to follow husband side liow..

First day of CNY, went to the same uncle house again, he is the eldest son in my father's side, so all relatives will go there when there is any occasion. So..hehe...this year is my last time taking angpau, haha..must greet greet around very hard to grab all..not bad manage to get a lot also..After that visit my dad's kam poh around that area also...at night went to Brandon's house with my family.

2nd day, went back to Ipoh (mother's side relatives). Happy to see them once again, once I step into my uncle's house ppl starts calling me "san liong" (bride)..ok..haha..bride-to-be..We have BBQ night, lamb and beef grill, pork grill, chicken wings, satay, fried mee..etc..wahh...very delicious...always hometown food is that great! it was a very hot day..too bad my uncle's house the electric voltage comes too high cause his house some electrical item spoilt. At first we though is overload used, actually is not. There was one electric generator house failed to cut off the watt power which deliver to his residential area. So those house who install 3 phase electric wayer will kena. It was scary when the voltage come unevenly, the lamp starts blinking and make sounds, and the fan motor also having something burn inside. My uncle immediatedly call his electric wayer man came over to check, he check for a while and when he tried to switch on the TV wayer connection, dunno what burns inside, TV is gone also with smoke starts coming out. After some primary inspection done, he said he can't do anything, coz it cause by the main electric deliver, not the wayering problem. Therefore, my aunty call Tenaga ppl to come and investigate and says that the spoilt item can claim back. Too bad lorrr...we can't stay there, hot hot weather, so we shift to cousin sis house, aircon all must on, dunno why Ipoh is that hot than KL.

3rd day, enjoy eat n sleep around..bring nephews, nieces and with cousins to shop at JJ, Ipoh..other than that no where to go, 3 days CNY at Ipoh area, sometimes go to this cousin's house, sometimes go to that uncle's house. I enjoy staying in the house, if not chit-chat with cousin or play with the babies then is sleep..I sleep a lot n eat a lot..no gambling...

Manage to collect many ang pao..total up although not much but enjoy collecting....

Reading the newspaper, traffic to North is terrible. My KL relative travel for 7 hours back to Ipoh, my cousin's gf travel from Malacca also 9 hours..so terrible..Luckily when my family travel it was nothing, 2 hours sharp reached Ipoh and back to KL also seems alright and normal. All the way, police in the canopy stand by camera. Dunno got kena or not...even old road also got.

This is how my CNY passed, simple, enjoy and treassure.

Farewell I

Yesterday still very busy to finish my project and also work OT, still have 2 more not yet finish :( Some colleagues came to me, and gave me gift for farewell and wedding, knowing that I'm going to leave, and because yesterday were the last time they see me in the office, since next week they'll be off for CNY. Everyone seems very miss me and they feel lost of a good staff. In my heart feel very miss them also cause we are so fren and the close of each other is more than just only colleagues. I truly miss them after I go. Many many cross feeling.

Manager only announced my leave on last meeting. Kinda late compared to last time, when they are somebody leaving. Well I dun expect any farewell from the department. Those my teammate already farewell with me and I think is more than enough only with few of them.

Here are some pic taken with my colleagues and during dinner.

Bought a lot of thing, I got myself an extra gown cream white color for my wedding dinner, love it very much...coz the bridal house only provide 2 pieces, which is 1 piece I need to wear it a week earlier and return the next 3 days. I can't hold until next week, else they will charge like I taking another piece...everything we got quite satisfied. Shop for 4.5 hours. Very tired!

At night, need to distribute biscuit and cards to friend. Still got some to go for today...Can't wait any longer since the biscuit reach me on last Sunday. These few days I lack of sleep, everyday also vy tired, tell myself to sleep early, but cannot also, have a lot of things to think n do..not much appetite to eat, eye circle all come out..wah..so 'chan'...may b need to put down all work then only can get a good rest.

I try to protect not to give her but at last still can't make it arrange not to giv her. Well ok lorr..follow the so-free-n-nothing-to-do assistant manager instruction. Both also tuff one..well...really pity her, who ask I'm fall in the 'favourite' team. So tuff project always circulate to us only. hai...hopefully she can cope with it..else she'll suffer a lot from top ppl after I go. Start packing up my cubicle stuff back home little by little.

This Friday night, my colleague will farewell with me at Chopstick Noodle house, we going to try out Porridge Steamboat. They make it earlier, coz on the 8th Feb, some are off for CNY holiday. Many great ppl here, miss are the people, but not the crazy work!

Sam's wedding

It was a touching night of wedding dinner host by my cousin bro - Sam at Eastin Hotel. Not able to attend his church wedding at noon, but still able to get ang pao from him during tea ceremony..hehe..at night it was a good night. 50+ tables, with live band who sing soft english and chinese songs. Slide show on how they each other grow in love and relationship along the 10 years they together. Story telling on how Sam court Pei Yiing..all the way..and also how to ask for marriage from her, it was at Air Asia flight, witness by over 100 ppls with the crew. At that night only I realise how romantic he was.

While dinner is on. He sang a song to his wife and also many words of gratitude to her wife, both parents n friends. Dishes taste not bad. Only things is service is slow. My uncle (Sam's father) also can't wait as his wedding anniversary is 2 days later. He also take his son's night as a oppurtunity to thank my aunt for 30 years contribute to the family. He sang a song 月亮代表我的心 to her and also a pearl necklace as a gift.

Once again, a small small world, I met my colleague - Yang, Prj. Director, and some of my ex-colleague current's colleague, not so familiar with them. With Yang, we chatted a lot about the company and our works he said my leave is a good thing if not for my own reasons. So far I know, many of my colleague want to leave in mind, just wait for the time only.

Pink freak!

Don't know why lately I love pink color very much. Since I'm in the midst of my wedding preparation, I realised that mostly the thing I choose the color I go for is pink first. From the house, the wall is light pink, wedding cheong sam in pink, 2 dress for new year in pink, new pyjamas in pink and even bra n panty also pink...haha...crazy already...my wedding theme color also pink, evening gown pink, invitation card pink, now want to get a pair of shoe in pink, but too bad no more size!

After all pink is so sweet for girls.

Lost of the ring

Brandon lost his ring which we both wear it a pair and crafted with name. I so sad when he told me that he lost it during gym. This white gold ring is a significant sign that we committed to each other, we start wearing it on Oct 2003. Hopefully he can find it back today. Ring are small and the chance of getting back is actually very low.

All done..

This week can see the new house almost done with all furniture come in. Still very busy in buying things...many many more...

Yesterday went to registered Telekom line, too bad the area line was currently unavailable and been told that it was cause by too many new user register at the same time. So I'm now in waiting list and have to wait after 3 days the technician will call me again to go submit the register form. After that, went to submit marriage registration form. Thank God is was fast and all photocopy document I brought none of that being taken. Procedure being simplified and fast. Just show I/C, fill up form and they gave us an appointment letter to inform you the date, thats it. Actually yesterday the goverment office at Maju Junction Mall there was blackout, all PC is not working. Luckily they still able to work with generator on and work on manually is our ROM date. Have set that, 3rd March 2005 is our ROM date.

A better year?

More than a week not blogging, hows everyone who reading this? Wishes of Happy New Year to you might be later for now. Anyway, all ppl no celebration this year, as tsunami have come before new year. My contribution to the tsunami victims are by giving donation and prayer. Watching thru the TV News and seeing the dead body and broken family, my heart feel pain. Yesterday read an email as following:-

The Tsunami happened in SW countries of China was predicted by the Chinese traditional farmer prediction system accurately. It also tell there is another one in NE countries of China (Japan and Korea) in 2005. Which is being confirmed by the geographical scientist already. So, don't plan your trip to Korea or Japan in 2005. One more thing, I guess you may heard about the "White Dragon King" in Thailand, right? Michael's friend went to Thailand and visit him before 26 Dec. The White Dragon King asked her to leave Thai immediately as there is a disaster coming. So she left and escape from the disaster. However, he also asked her not to go outside and stay at home in HK on 8 Feb (Year 30th) after 9:00 pm. He said something bad will happen in HK at that period. Inform your families or friends if possible.

Do not know how true is this prediction or is it a rumours, just take pre-caution. Yesterday watching a tsunami short take on Ch32, the reporter saying that the tsunami take place during Christmas is it God throw tantrum to the world as Christmas people were only go for celebration, instead of remember the character behind the season. Or is this pre-sign of end world? no body knows ..as war, disaster were all slowly happen now..

Over the new year week, I was busy cleaning the new house and buying furniture. Almost done now, next week can shift in. My last day of working in Synovate as a DP Executive will end 8th Feb.'05. Plan after stop work will prepare all things for the wedding. These few weeks also very very busy with works...this is also another reason no time to update the blog.

Will update more if time allows. Take care!

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.

Christmas gifts on top of my PC

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.

Check the account today, yippiee! bonus was bank in. But think won't enough for me also.

Buying many things to the new house. Start clean up the house now, since yesterday and every weekend..very tiring..we need to mud the holes on the wall, paint the whole house, clean all things which have fixed in...etc...luckily my dad and brother is there to help out too.

Gift and wishes all around

This morning step in office, colleagues come to me and wish me Merry Christmas with their Christmas gift. Now on top of my monitor and CPU full of gifts. Later department will have a Christmas Party lunch sponsor by boss. Tonight will join caroling team to go house to house.

My Christmas wishes:
Brandon will join me this year for Christmas celebration. I invited him every year, but all the years I celebrate alone with other church member. Lonely is becoz he is not wit me and the feeling is very different when ur most loves one is not with u. His joining for celebration already my greatest gift of the year.
Keep my family and friends safe and healthy and have a better year ahead.
Bless my marriage life a sweet and harmony one.

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..

1st Christmas eve night, I'm not joining caroling team. coz I still haven't adjust my missing mood..need some quiet time...

K night

This was last Friday, went to RedBox, Sunway with colleagues after work. Having a great time with them. Sing not much due to buffet dinner have take us times to finish. Thinking that I dun have much time left to be together with them in the same office. Guys..Is true that even when we are in office we damn fun to be with and joke with each other. This sweet memories will forever capture in my heart.

5 of us (Alice, Yee, Richard, Chew)

Last sunny weekend

Did a lot of things on last weekend, shopping crazily wit cousin sis for 8 hours at KLCC and spend crazily. This year I bought most Christmas gift compare to last year. On Sunday went shop for lamp/lights and also Ikea to get some home deco item.

New house half done, only left the floor mozzec, cabinet, door, light and aircon not yet fix. I'm doing the curtain part, still not going to check out. After all those fix in, we then only get to electrical item and furniture in. Probably can move in before CNY.

Christmas sensation

Over the week, beside very busy with suddent work load, this never stop me from shopping for Christmas gift. These few nights have been busy wrapping up the gift bought, really treasure when wrapping it nicely. While I wrapping I only realise that I bought more than last year and year before..haha...Hopefully the small gift can bring out the meaning of celebrating Christmas to my frens. Suprisingly, my lovely cousin sis hand post me her early christmas gift and wishes to my office mailbox and I got that collect from the reception. This is my first Christmas gift of the year!

The shopping mall here are truly fill with christmas joy. Throughout the year in everywhere I noticed only Christmas season celebration ppl are more emphasize on. Even the lift music already change to Christmas carols. So warm every morning can listen to it, and start singing it inside my heart. The most eye-catching one is the apparel Esprit theme for this season is "Peace, Joy, Hope". Everyone see this is is to celebrate the Saviour Jesus Christ is born!

Today during lunch time, I even help to decorate the office christmas tree. Actually this is my very first time decoration it. Few of us, together hang up all the tree decoration item and get the small neon light on. Gazing at it after complete, feel joy in my heart.

Great news from the management, we entitle to have 1 day replacement public holiday on any day within a week after christmas this same goes to New Year holiday. Today just submit the leave form for 2 days off. Have some little spare time within work today, I took the time to manage my wedding dinner guest list.


Prayer to God: Father in heavenly, praise you in the name of God. Bless me with joy everyday and keep me in your safety hand. Pls lead me in doing more thing to prove that you are the true mighty God. Your born to the world is the great salvation to the universal. Hereby, I surrender all my family and friends onto your hand, God pls keep them in peace and healthy. Thats always my wish put upon you. Keep me safe tonight till the next day, in Jesus name I pray. Amen.
