New Year Eve

Today is new year eve.. was hoping for some kind of fun on tonights' count down.. :( nothing loh.. lolx...

Ok.. as today's chinese new year eve, we've half day work day today. Went to meet hby at IMM. Stroll almost the whole two levels of it & looks like nothing great to shop during the waiting time. mm.. such a big shopping mall.. what a disappointment.

Went for lunch at swenson with hby. There, we're the only one queueing as its fully packed with ppl. No attendants .. one of the staff came up to us later & advice theres a table for 6 which they had split into 4 & 2 sits whether we can take the 2 sits instead. Initially we thought that it should be the inner sit.. but .. it came out to be the outside two. haha.. we're like so odd sitting there blocking the path.. haha..

Went for our food & follow by shopping.. passby a shoe shop which i like.. got myself a flatbase shoe.. longing for one.. cutie.. haha.. isn't it cute ? looks bit childish yea.. haha



After that we went to Giant for a shop. New years coming.. alot of ppl went there to shop for their new year stuffs.. Theres this commercial mention 和Giant 一起过肥年! But .. after seeing the ppl queueing up for the payment.. i think its only .Giant 过肥年 bah ... :S 哈哈哈....!!!

Sweet Oldies

Saw one couple on my way home today. An old couple.. guess in their 70s or 80s.. They were sitting at the garden near to the roadside.. both wearing hats.. the husband was helping the wife to scratch her back.. Its So sweeeeettttt.... :)

Nowadays.. alot of couple will be having the other way round.. Wife will be mostly doing the job or you'll hardly see old couples doing such sweet things on the roadside.. maybe only at their own sweet home. Wondering after a few 10 years down the road, will we be the same like them ? or will it be like the husband will walk in front, wife behind ? or wife & husband walking side by side without holding hands anymore ? or if your back is itchy, husband will ask you to scratch it yourself or get help from the wall instead or etc etc.. ??? Think its still far away to comment.. haha.. :S

My First Try

Gotcha.. !!! No.. not me this time.. its my mum this time round. My very ffirst try of Gua Sha (刮痧) on face. Thats my mum below .. my very first model.. haha..


Can your see the difference ? The left side ( Right side of my mum's face ) is firmer & lifted. I've tried it on my own face.. Its soothing & at point of time i feel my face abit smaller haha.. Have it done once a week. It is said to help better absorbant of your daily beauty products & you might even get better sleep after it.

Can't say that 100% good but its proven on alot of people's face.. Thats why i have my mum to try it.. Next will be my hubby & follow by my brother haha.. gonna let them try it although they're not woman.. cos.. its "UNISEX" !! Thats what i like about this product.. any urge to try ? I'm most welcome to share the good stuff with your ! Cheers !!

明年经济, 心理有"数"

领导曾说过, 在现在这种经济减弱的时刻, 有钱的人会变没有钱, 没钱的人却会忽然变得有钱或很有钱哦.. 想了想.. 有点道理. 那么, 中等人呢? 会变得比以前有钱? 还是会变得没钱??


看了今日的"我报", 有一篇描述与预测了今年和明年的经济情况.. 如下图 :

估计今年经济增长: 1.4% . 而明年经济增长: -0.5%

以上纯属预测... 有的人说明年会过得更辛苦... 就因为经济元素. 看看周围的人.. 还是有人不理会这经济危机.. 人们的思想只会在最紧要关头才开始变... 该节省的时候，人们只会花钱．．． 为何?

自从经济危机的新闻报道一传开，到处都以数字来衡量．连来临的新年贺词都不能说 "财源广进" 因为那就等于 "裁员广进"！真是不敢相信...

明年的经济会是如何？会是比今年还糟吗？

Gotcha !!!

Aarhhhh... Ugly me.. haha.. what a photo captured ... Thought its just a simple photo but "Gotcha" .. been loaded on website.. aiyo... ugly & fat me.. fattest among all....look so tired & restless too.. maybe the seminar finish too late or maybe its my bedtime.... haha... :D

Weak Heart

Come across this article..

Whats the symptoms of a weak heart ?

When the heart is weak, it will pump less blood than is required by the body (this is called forward failure), starving the body of vital nutrients. This will make us extremely tired and fatigued. So, these are symptoms of a weak heart

Hby recently encountered tireness whereby he likes to sleep alot... even when he already had enough sleep, he will still feel sleepy.... the chinese physician mention that he might be having a weak heart.. I was like.. what ? Such a big size man can get this also .. Ok.. but the chinese physician added that if this goes on, he will have sleepless nights instead.. mm.. thinking back on whats mentioned in the article, it looks like tiredness & sleepless is a two different thing.. but it can still link ? Lack of exercise is what he had.. although due to his work, he might or will have to run about but he still have a weak heart ! Its so unbelievable.. Now hby, dun just laugh at me for having to consume medication daily.. you're joining me now. !! Its good to know earlier than late anyway !! :P

Xmas or New Year ?

People always say xmas last for 12 days.. but today, i've heard new year songs early in the morning the moment i on the radio. During X'mas, alot of friends sms me greetings & some even stated "May yr wish come true".. mm.. thinking back, this sentence have come & goes so many times but my dream still yet to come true leh.. haha.. Not sure whether this year's wish will come true.

New Year is just another month.. wow.. thats fast.. I've already left my ex-co for almost 3 months.. miss the jokes & fun we have last time haha... well, life still have to go on.. lucky i'm still in touch with them so still not much difference bah..

This year is going to be a tough year .. cos i've join the new company for only 3 months.. not sure any "B" a not haha.. hope have.. but this kind of economy.. haiz.. my hby say hard to tell.. better pray hard.. :S ....

====== The End ======

Rotting During Xmas

Haha.. yea.. am rotting..

Taken half day leave staying at home today ( xmas eve )... Had actually plan to have a holiday during this xmas season but dream smash again.. haiz.. Looks like i've no fate with holidays..

Wake up quite early today.. seems to be rather cold as weather is not bad.. cooling as its having a slight heavy rain. Alot of friends says i've taken the right choice to stay at home as i can sleep late.. haha.. fat hope.. i still woke up at 6 plus this morning.. preparing breakfast as although i'm not working but my hby is.

Rotting.. started to rot in the morning.. haha... doing nothing but serving the net.. reading my books & watching the repeated entertainment tv channels.. so bored... haiz.. First time i find bored staying at home.. first time i stay away for chores on the 1st half day when i'm not working..

Will i be still so bored in the afternoon ? or will i have some other entertainment going ? Lets see again later...

第一步

Ever wonder how hard is it to start a simple business... first step is very important.. when i read some of my friends blogs which mention about their new business or side lines, i'll wonder.. is it hard ? how hard ? how long will it take for them to succeed..

Some business requires capital, some requires initiatives, some requires social cycle & some even needs you to pay out before gaining... Its always hard to start the first move.. how do you start the first moves ? is it right to start in this way ? Did i approach the correct person or not & etc..

Yesterday, i saw an entertainment show.. i love the sentence which the host mention, its so true :
" 人有两只手... 运气在左手, 命运在右手, 努力靠的是双手... "

One have to strive for what they want.. without 努力, how can one achieve ? but some people will still base on their 命运 or even 运气 first.. they'll place 努力 behind as the last choice.. Are you one of them ?

I still think i'm a person whom doesn't know how to talk or speak or even sell if i'm in business. Thats why till now, i'm not in sales line. I'm too shy to approach people or can i say i do not know how to approach. Maybe lack of experience or need some guidance.. Today, i find a kind of relieve / satisfaction / accomplishment after i get positive remarks / answers when i approach someone on a question which i've long wished to. Finally, i feel that i'm still not that worst after all.. :P... hahaha....Cheers !!!

Sad

Was hoping for a great day today but ... Well, have been tired yesterday after a day of chores which started in the evening. No help given nor any appreciation. Sometimes, even a simple appraiser might lift a person's mood.. Isn't it ? Ok, maybe its a kind of fat hope.. haha

Ok.. looking forward to a fresh day today.. woke up quite late since its a sunday & after a hard work yesterday. Went down for breakfast. My bro / sis in law requested for mahjong game since its a holiday & so we started in the late afternoon..

Nightmare starts.. unreasonables issues starts.. halfway thru the game someone just sit there finding things which he can't locate for hours & started grumbling / questioning.... When things are in your control, you'll be able to find it.. when you hack care some things / issues, you'll start to ques. Thats why i prefer systematic, it will be much easier to locate things when you're in control of. Just don't really understand why some people can just throw their things everywhere without tidying it.... Whats more surprising is when you're tidying it, you might be grumbling which annoys them but when they are tidying it, they will do the same with grumbling but you can't even get heat up.. Isn't it unreasonable ?

Dear god.. pls tell me which is right & which is wrong.. its so hard to figure what some humans are actually thinking.. !!!!!

Full Month

Went to a full month celebration at my excolleagues house today. The bb is so cute.. haha.. mm.. wonder when it will be my turn.. haha.. ok ok .. below some cutie stuff received to share with your .. so unique ... isn't it cute ?



Well, its kinda happy.. although have yet to contact much but still get invited yea.. hehehe...
Congrats sweetie.... btw.. stuff is not bad... good choice... :P

New Design ?

No not a new design sofa ...

Can you figure what the pic ? Its a shape left after my brother get out from the sofa.. haha.. isn't it looks like face ? Have a closer look...

Commuters

Does humans have uncurable sickness ?

Today as usual, I boarded the bus to work. There's two aunties boarded a few stops after me. One headed to an empty seat occupying more than 1/2 a seat. another one sitting beside me but taken less than 1/2 a seat. Later this auntie changes to the empty seat in front of me after the passenger alights. Initially, she only occupies the inner seat but slowly shifted occupying the whole seat. At first, i thought that these two aunties do not know each other.. but i'm wrong as they started their conversation thru the "open air".. OMG !!! .. Can you imagine ? they know each other but sits on different seats talking to each other ... haha.. thats kind of funny to me. I was like thinking.. does humans have any uncurable sickness or disease which refrain them from sitting together or even to share the seats with other commuters ?

Well, maybe i think too much.. or maybe they are having too much things on hand which they need to occupy one full seat.. Lucky its not a weekday.. if not i guess, they might not even have a seat to sit on.

The Difference

After viewing a few blogs .. i find that alot of ppl will treat a blog as a blog & a diary as a diary.. To me.. there isn't much difference actually .. wanna know why ?

A lot of them mention that diary are for one to keep records of their daily incidents / issues / happiness / unhappiness ... be it scolding, mention the person you hate / irritates or even vent their fustration with poking / drawing & even writing the very personal message. Whereas a blog they cant really put the names in it.... But, I think likewise.. Nowadays, the technology is good, even a blog, you can choose whether to view by only yourself or to view by all. You can even block with password or just allow a few of your friends to view it. That means even if you've a very very personal issues which you like to input in it, you still can do it in a blog.. of cos, you might not be able to poke it cos its a computer.. haha.. lolx !!

I keep diary too last time but i've transferred everything on to my blog. Thats why i've ever mention that i do not only have one blog. Faster to input as we're typing instead of writing... Of cos, there'll be place where i'll jot down the blog site & password for my close ones to login / view it if anything happens to me anyday.. Lolx !!! kinda sound sad yea haha....:P

The Day The Earth Stood Still

Went to watch this movie yesterday with bfy. Mm.. quite an interesting show.. theres a little bit of comedy in it. Theres a lady sitting beside me.. laughing style is so entertaining.. sorry to say "it sounds fake".. well, maybe its becos of the partner that went with her..

Initially i do not know why theres only 2½ stars.. now i know.. the ending is a real "Surprise".. when you're expecting "something",.. you get none but "wordings" ... haha... Was thinking .. what will happen if this world really stood still ??



Went to Mac for a drink & chat after the movie .. theres these bunch of kiddys.. talking & laughing so loudly sitting behind us... taking pictures with their mobile phones & etc.... Kids nowadays are so 幸福 compare to our times.. haha sounds like we're ageing... yea, got to admit.. we really are..

Looking forward to my next happening movie.. which will it be ???

为了..."爱"

Receive this from a web friend. So touching ...

Lunch

There's a canteen below our office block where we can have our lunch there. I always don't like to have my lunch at the canteen as its quite pack & often buys back to office instead. There's a couple of times where i'm disappointed with the food there, ok its the malay stall which i'm more disappointed at.

Today was another day of disappointment. As usual, i went to buy my lunch at this malay stall. I'm hoping for some good food since i feel abit hungry. The foods that they've place out today looks good. I ordered for one curry drumstick, one small slice of fish & one fish cake with gravy. The stall auntie told me total is SGD 5. I'm stunt but ok.. maybe two meat will be abv four bucks.. but hey one fishcake at one dollar ? .. As i'm not at the argument mood, i just pay for my food & go. I reach office & open up my lunch. I found no drumsticks but breastmeat, fish is hard, gravy lousy, fish cake taste abit sour.. it seems to be turning bad.

Todays' lunch to me really sucks.. my friend once said that we've to enjoy our lunch as we only have abt an hour & two meals that we're taking outside a day. I don't agree initially, but today i do. There goes my one hour lunch which only takes me less than 15mins to not even finish the whole packet. Time wasted, money wasted & food wasted.

The Amazing Woman

Saw this from a celeb's blog. She's dumbfounded by her indomitable spirit. So am i. Can't imagine what will happen if i'm her. She can live like any of us even when ...

Savings

Salary always comes in every month end. I'm always the one who updates the bank passbook for all. A few days ago, i find that one of the passbook showing salary in at near to month end & left only a hundred plus. What a surprise to me. Its so unbelievable that one can actually draw out so much $$ within a few days & left their bank a/c almost empty. Its only early month.. how possibly can they survive till the next pay day ? What is happening, whats the urgency for drawing out so much in just a wks time ? Ain't they required any deduction of their other giro payments ? What about their daily needs for the rest of the weeks ? what about their other plans ? Did they gamble away ? spend it on other purpose ? or specially draw out to transfer into other savings a/c ? Just couldn't understand.. :S

Migraine

Migraines.. Not again.. This is the first time i have my migraines back since the last attack. Stress my brain too much ? Lack of sleep ? Articles showing the causes for Migraines are :

- lack of or too much sleep
- skipped meals
- bright lights, loud noises, or strong odors
- hormone changes during the menstrual cycle
- stress and anxiety, or relaxation after stress
- weather changes
- alcohol (often red wine)
- caffeine (too much or withdrawal)
- foods that contain nitrates, such as hot dogs and lunch meats
- foods that contain MSG (monosodium glutamate), a flavor enhancer found in fast foods, broths, seasonings & spices - foods that contain tyramine, aged cheeses, soy products, fava beans, hard sausages, smoked fish & Chianti wine
- aspartame (NutraSweet® and Equal®)

The pain just came so sudden in the morning. It even lasted for the whole day & my eyes couldn't even open too long. Straining my eyes too much i guess.. probably its on computers which i've to use it daily. It time to rest my eyes for a day. Luckily tomorrow's a public holiday. I can really rest myself for a day without disturbance... Hope it gets better tomorrow..

Luv

After viewing the trailer from one of the sites on how much Lo HweI Yen's hubby love her & how brave this lady lawyer is, i'm really touch. At least i have not see any guys that love a gal in real life. Mostly only appears on TV. I thought its like drama.

How i wish i also have that kinda love from my love ones. Others seems to think that how deep our loves are but nobody will ever knew the efforts behind it that i'm giving. Nobody will know how hard i've been trying. How vex i'm having at times when i'm down.

I really salute to Ms Lo when i know how brave she is when she was held as hostage & how she would calm her love ones by a non-shivering voice of advice. I don't think I'll be that calm if i'm there.

Saw an accident yesterday by the roadside of the highway while on my way for dinner. Its so scary.. although i did not get to see what had actually happen during the incident but i saw the motorbike rider lying on floor with blood coming out from his mouth & others standing there guiding the traffice to move towards the left... guess they're waiting for ambulance or police to arrive. So sad.. they guy looks young.. Hope he is ok.. Concludes : Its always good to say things to your love ones before its too late...

Unexpected !!!!

Theres so much incident in life which was unexpected. Yesterday is the most unexpected ones which i encounter. The minute i heard what my boss told me, i'm shocked.

I happen to receive a call from an ex-col yesterday whom was seeking for help on some procedures due to no one to turn to for said urgency.as they're out for lunch. My boss happen to be in the office while i'm answering the call. He heard some kind of guidance that i'm giving to the caller.& leaks to his curiousity on asking who the person is. Of course, to me, i don't feel any problem or secretive, so i told him who the caller was ( I'm not going to mention who in here ).

Before knocking off from work, my boss ask whether did the caller contacted me again. I'm shock the miniute i heard the question & it came immediately to my mind is "damn it".. did he call to scold the caller or told the caller off ? Yes, i'm right.. he really call & told the caller off. Oh my god !! Why did he do that ? I can sense that its going to be a very hard time for me to get closed to my ex-col again i guess. It never ever come to my mind that my boss will do such a thing... i mean, not till the extend of calling back the caller behind me to tell him off. I'm just giving some kind of guidance as a friend. Not teaching him what to do step by step. so why the fuss ? I know my limit & know whats right & wrong for an advice given. If things thats within my limit & i can guide, i don't mind.. I understand his point of views as in i'm no longer with the company & the caller should get correct guidance from the colleagues instead since nowadays technology is that "hi-tech", but its just a guidance.. i don't see any wrong on giving guidance to a friend of mine..

Is it becos that its from the ex-co ? or is it because of the caller ? or is it that he's helping me ? I dunno... Just feel sad, fustrated of what he had done. maybe i'm wrong but i just dont feel comfortable after hearing it. It looks like he wants to turn my friendship with them sour or maybe i've think too much.. but its really such a disappointed evening that i get yesterday.. It seems like i'm too kpo on helping when one is in need of help. My friend say that my boss might have his rights .. maybe i really think too much ? :S

" Unsecure "

I've been started to be forgetful since my last ops done a yr ago. But i dunno that i'm actually that forgetful. Have plan to go NTUC to do some marketing yesterday but due to rain, we've postpone it. I've actually taken out the money from my wallet to prepare for said marketing & have forgotten to place it back to my wallet after the cancellation.

Today, i wanted to go down to our office canteen to tabao lunch. I've always a habit of flip thru my wallet to make sure there's enough $ for lunch. Therefore, after stepping out of the office, i do a check & was surprise that its empty :S .. I feel so unsecure.. haha.. cos its like you did not have any $$ to find yr way home when / if you're lost. Lucky i still have my ezlink card with me .. if not.. i thk i've to walk home.. haha.. :P..

Emergency Exit No More Safe ?

My new neighbour shifted in recently with their flat half renovation done. I thought my brother is the only odd person whom shifted in without full renovation done. Now im proven half wrong.. Why half ? Cos my neighbour is better than him. They have at least put up curtains & with necessary furnitures. Why did i mention half done. Cos they shifted in before full painting of their doors & before all their funitures arrived.

A few days ago, i saw a all the empty boxes hanging outside their house blocking the corridor & the emergency exit. Yesterday evening, i saw the portable hanger standing & blocking the emergency exit which we normally use to go down to my P-I-L house. Today, i saw stickers pasted on the emergency exit door.

The stickers is reading "DANGER"... the question is, who pasted it ? I don't think the couple pasted as they look quite well educated. Could it be the renovator or some mischievous kids ? My hubby said it might be the couple cos theres also stickers pasted on their electric & water duction doors. Oh my god !!!!.. Emergency exit no longer safe for use ? Why paste the "Danger" sticker on it ? Or is it only for their own usage ? I don't thk i saw any other exits with the same stickers ... :S

The Power Of Ah Mahs..

Was out for breakfast with hby this morning.. saw a bunch of cute ah mahs finding seats as there are five of them. Theres an empty table with 5 seats but is near the drain.. some ah mahs dislike the sitting area but some says just sit as theres no other place with 5 seaters for them. One of the ah mah's eyes were sharp enough to see an auntie sitting on a five seaters table having her breakfast & started saying loudly.. "one person sitting on a big table ? should sit smaller one mah .." The auntie look at her & was so surprise as its rather normal when you see one person sitting on a big table when you really can't find a small one while the area is packed with ppl.. Next, the bunch of ah mahs started to search again for seats.. going round around her.. The ah mahs comment never ends while searching for the seats, therefore, the auntie give up, standing & giving up the table for them. She moved towards the 5 seaters table which is near the drain .. Next, you'll see the ah mahs moving fast towards the table that they've eyed for long & heard some of them started to say .. "come.. here got place already"..

Everyone is looking at the bunch of ah mahs but none of them have any reactions.. One ah mah can't fight with one auntie.. but if theres a bunch of them, i guess even a kid will give up the seat bah.. The powerful ah mahss .. :D

Good Exercise

Last time, I've ever walk from my work place back home when i'm still living at Tiong Bahru where my workplace is around outram as its quite near. Two days ago, i meet my friend to go down jalan kilang. My friend told me its quite near my workplace so we started walking.. & yeah.. its really "NEAR".. hahaha.. Actually the walking distance is really "SHORT".. lolx.... from my workplace @ henderson to bukit merah to jalan kilang to ABC market towards anchor point down to queenstown & back home. I've never dream of walking such a long distance before in my life.. Oh god.. we're both sweating our way while returning to my place. What a good exercise.. Think i should have more of this kind of exercise since i hardly sweat .. ;P...
