Pasta Pasta

It's been a long time since we cook a meal together..This time we managed to successfully prepare pasta..There is only one word to describe it.."Yummy"..Haha..It's so easy to actually prepare pasta..And the result taste exactly like those in Pasta Mania..Maybe even better cos we prepare it together..hehe..:)

When when when..

In just a day, I can confirm my impression towards two person..One is cold blooded and not compassionate and the other is not understanding and selfish..Who?My heart knows is enough...Defintely not my family and my friends..I just know the world is round and what comes around goes around..Sometimes I really pity these people who think so highly of themselves. The only thing I can see in them is their pretentious and ego, SO self centred..

Chao Ji Bai *CCB* Oops

I simply love this song after hearing it..Especially when you feeling down and wanted to scold someone but then THERE IS NO ONE FOR YOU TO SCOLD...hahaha..Hope after hearing this song, those people feeling down will bring laughter to your current mood!!Enjoy!!>.<

Past, Present and Future happenings!!

This month had been happening..There had been two weddings, one chalet and lastly not forgetting my younger sister ROM which was the last event..Also I just bought a PS3 AFTER much thought..Yes, when I decided to buy something which cost a few hundred bucks, I have to think quite awhile, sometimes, it takes a few days and in most extreme cases, takes a few months to finally decide on buying without feeling hard pain on my pocket..And the decision to FINALLY buy a PS3 took me a few weeks especially after I played with my friends (in a drunkard state) at the recent chalet..haha..Anw my wife and I are planning for a trip to Hong Kong..Yes, again..haha..But given that this year I did not go overseas at all, it is a plan which we are looking forward to..It will be somewhere in January 2010 but I have to inform my supervisor before I apply leave because there is no such thing as "xian1 zhan3 hou4 zhou4"(this is what I heard from current colleagues.) Anw I am still looking forward to my new post!!:)

Farewell Chalet?

On 12/10/09, I went to the Downtown East Chalet which was organised by my ex team mates..It was a so-call farewell chalet for those who had left the team but I felt that though I had left the team, my heart will always with Team Alpha which I cannot deny..To be frank, this job has been the longest permanent job I got since I started working in 1995..And I have join the organisation since Nov 2003 and since then attached to Team Alpha..So may I ask how can I forget the memories I have even though some of my seniors had left the team? Answer is I can't..To me Team Alpha is a team free of politics and double face (of cos except for one or two blacksheeps) But still, we are able to unite as one and counter all the minority blacksheeps around and won the battle..I really miss the friends who had taught and guide me along the way when I was in the team..Some maybe junior we still share knowledge together..I hope the Team Alpha spirit won't disperse after we leave the team..Anw thanks alot to the guys who have organised the chalet and make it happen especially Andy, Gerald, Fazli, Ang, etc..The whole event was fantastic!!Makes me feels like home again..(2nd home..hahaha)..Hope this is not the last outing we have and I pray for more to come in future..Take care guys..:)

Restaurant City

These few days been playing with Restaurant City which is one of the applications in Facebook..Anw been hooked to it since my wife intro to me..Though it may seem abit of childish taking into consideration my age, but I am able to past my time playing with it..
Anw some updates..I sent an email to my hr dept to update them about my posting in case they 'forget' about it or 'act blur'..I hope they will send me a reply, at least, to tell me they are pending or watever rather than having me thinking whether are they doing anything about it..you know what i mean?

Light at the end of the tunnel 2??

Yesterday while I was at work, went to check email as usual..Suddenly one of the messages caught my eye instantly..It was an email sent by the dept which I have applied..My heart was beating fast because I was afraid of rejection..Because if that really happens, my heart will sink because I know I have no where to go since that is the only dept I am truely interested in should I want to continue to work happily and with motivation..The moment I saw the message in the email, I was delighted because it mentioned something about they had informed the HR side regarding my posting which I presume should be successful??!! The next thing that comes straight to my mind is the manpower issue because I know that it will usually require to wait for a long while before my posting is confirm if there is enough manpower..Nevertheless, I am excited and looking forward to the new posting!! Wish me luck, my fellow friends and colleagues!!:)

Light at the end of the tunnel is here?

For some close friends, they knew about my application..Well, there hasn't been any news until I heard from my previous supervisor yesterday that the dept had contacted him but he did not give me any details and told me that he had informed the dept that I have been transferred to another team..So in between, I do not know what is their conversation..Can't think much right now, cos the more I hope for it, the more disappointed I am if I did n0t get in..Guess I have to follow the flow for now..:(

Doppelganger

Yesterday night after I fetch my wife home at about 10pm plus, she went to have a bath..After that I went downstairs to shift my vehicle..Then when I came up and the moment I step into the house, I saw my wife standing at the bedroom doorstep looking at me and walked into our bedroom..SO I thought she had finished her bath and I took my clothing which I placed in the living room earlier with the intention to go to the bathroom to have my bath..Then I noticed that the bathroom door was locked and I knocked and my wife was still in the bathroom!!And guess what, when she came out, she was wearing exactly the same outfit with the "person" whom I saw earlier!! Then I told her about it and she mentioned something about "Doppelganger" which was a bad omen. Today I checked on Yahoo and there were really cases of doppelganger which meant a double of a living person and when seeing own doppelganger or doppelganger of the friend or relative means something bad is going to happen or a bad omen..This is the first time happened..Hopefully I am just imaging things last night and not the one mentioned..
PS: Right after the incident while having dinner with my wife, I got choked on the food I was eating and was nearly out of breathe..Luckily, I was able to get out of it...Is it a sign or something? I guess no one knows..

Prison Break

Recently, I have been catching Prison Break Season IV on DVD together with my wife every night..I know Channel 5 had just cast it not long ago, however, due to my work schedule, I was unable to catch the full episodes..Hence, I bought the DVD so that I can watch it without missing one episode because it's a show you really cannot miss..Every episode comes with a properly planned scene and by watching it, you can see the wisdom in the lead actors especially Michael Scotfield, Lincoln Burrows and Alexander Mahone..Of cos not forgetting Sara Tancredi, Scotfield's girlfriend, who stood side by side with him during the whole PB seasons...This is a highly recommended serial for people who likes to watch English serial and have not watch it yet..You will defintely glued to your television after you finished your 1st episode of PB because you definitely won't fall asleep watching..I give 5/5 stars for this serial..
ps: For friends who knew me, I never commented on any English serial before..So you can expect this to be worth watching and maybe can thank me for introducing such a excellent serial after watching?hehehe..:P
Anw you have to watch from Season I to IV to know the full story..But dun worry, once you are glued to it, it doesn't matter how many episodes you are going to watch because you will feel it's always so short..Like the saying goes "Happy hours past by fast"

Officially out

Yesterday marks the last day at team..Though my official date transfering to other team is on 31/08/09..Kind of mixed feeling leaving the team..Partially it's sad because I have since been in that team since I join the organisation in Nov 2003..So got some thoughts about leaving the team..However, as years goes by, most of the seasoned team mates aka "kakis" had left since and newer people have joined the team..So changing team might not be a bad idea..But there are still some people I will miss after leaving them (not the team supervisor, of cos)..Luckily I still get to see them since we are still working under the same building, so i guess that is only the consolation..Just wanna wish those who are still in the team to take care of themselves and for me, I will see how it goes in the new team as I have made some plans..If possible, I would love to leave the place altogether since like one of friend mentioned that since we are changing environment, might as well apply for other dept and I agreed with him..But for me, I won't stay at the same div, if there is a choice..Hopefully I can get good news from my current applications SOON! Anw wish me luck in the new team for now..

I think I really have Gout:(

Today, I brought my dad for checkup at polyclinic and at the same time, I went to take my lab report on my blood test for my gout result which I took in July and also to take medicine as my right toe joint hurts AGAIN! The report is out and the doc said that my blood is normal..I told him that my right toes joint hurts again and he told me that blood test cannot test whether I did really have gout..So this got me thinking in the first place why the first doc asked me to go for a blood test?! So in the end the doc told me that there still can be a possibility of me having gout and he prescribe me some medicine to reduce pain and for gout..Think I have to watch my diet from today onwards...Damn sianz..:(

Just A Thought

I was thinking of this while I was warded in hospital..Will my organisation investigate thorougly whether I got this H1N1 during the course of work..eg,through some idiotic complt or subjects..Because all I knew was no one in my family got this virus and they are all well and healthy(which I am glad)..So I presume 99% is I got this during course of work..Before I got this virus, I went for a in service training and went out for a movie after that at Suntec with my colleagues and all were well after that..I still went for work the next two days and everything was fine..After I returned home and slept till the evening and woke up to watch the NDP, it was then the funny feeling came and the next day fever came and so on..So this makes me wonder whether my organisation will at least bear some responsibility when coming to bearing the cost of the hospitalisation bill?Will they compensate me for the suffering and pain I had endured when I was warded (Going through all the blood test is no joke especially when so many needles poking into my veins!)Will they?!Or will they just let the matter pass with a pathetic hamper?This I wonder..................

I am back!

Finally, after 4 nights stay at Singapore Grand Hotel (SGH), I am back at home..The first 2 nights I was inserted with oxygen through my nose as I had difficulty in breathing..At the same time, I was being poked by countless of needles for blood tests and such..It was a torture man, especially the 2nd day when I was tested positive after a swab test, I was transfered to the isolation ward where I was kena poked by needle on my artery near to right my wrist for about 3 times!!!And you know what, the female doc who poked me cannot find the right spot, that is why she poked me 3 times..I also observed there was not much blood being drawn out in the tube..SO later in the day, another nurse came and told me there was blood clot in the earlier blood test and required to draw one more time and I said "Oh shit"..She told me I am a man and should bear the pain..So i told her about the doc and she said she will have 3 times of chances then!*Faint*..However, this time she was more professional and one time settled..On the third night, I was much better and they took out the oxygen tube..However, I must say the food was not as bad as I imagine except that the tv programmes were limited..Lucky for me, there was a laptop to keep me occupied..However, I seldom use it and normally will go to bed early at night..And no, I din see or hear or dream of any "momo"..so dun ask me..maybe it's because lunar 7th months is still a few days away bah..In conclusion, I was totally restless and 90% of the time, I was lying on my bed even when having my meal, etc..I miss my family and wife and my family pet, Riko..Finally, I am back but was told to quarantine myself another 2 days to prevent any spreading..So I have to go back to the sofa which accompany me during the initial stage of fever..hahaha..
ps: I was given mc till 23/08/09...So is it a disguise in blessing??At last, I took a loooooong break from my work and you know what? I simply love it!But I felt sorry for the DO this month because I heard that is another colleague who is also currently warded..
To the DO, dun worry, August is coming to an end!!

Sick, MC and Hospitalise for the current trend...........H1N1!

Recently, I was down with fever, cough and breathlessness and immediately self quarantine myself from my wife as I know H1N1 can happen to me due to my course of work..Hence, I went to see a nearest GP after the NDP holiday. Was given 2 days of MC and was told to go back if still feeling unwell due to the recent H1N1..Well, initially thought, maybe I won't be so 'lucky' to kena it..However, after the 2 days MC, my fever really did not go down and so I went back to the same GP again and told him my symptoms after I seen him..He then advised me to proceed to either CGH or SGH for x ray checkup while he will write a referral letter and I went ahead with the company of my mum(For some reason, that day seems like my heart pant extremely fast even standing up and sitting down)..When reached SGH, was given a x ray and told to stay for observation for suspected H1N1..Actually, I expected that already cos of the 4 days of up and down fever..SO right now, I am still in SGH typing this..Thanks to my wife who been so kind to bring the laptop for me to use..Not forgetting my wonderful mum who had been with me all along..And my both sisters and colleagues who have shown their concern..The one thing which I feel glad is that my family are all well and sound ( I have told them to see a doc immediately and take Tamiflu tablet from the doc based on my history IF such incident really happened) There is another thing which I am glad I did the moment I got the symptoms is that I have self quarantine myself from my wife and slept in the living room for about 4 nights before admitted to SGH..Face mask were used in the process..hehee...(Really hope it works and nothing happen to my family)
ps: Before I can complete this blog entry properly, the doctor already told me result is POSITIVE! Pls dun stay away from me because of this illness!!My guess is that I kena from some irresponsible bast****/bit*hes who knew they were sick still call for us,,,

I'm Out

Recently, there were news on reshufflement and news is that my colleagues are out instead of me..Today got a call from two of my friends who told me I am the one who is going to other team..What an irony...Anw I find that it might not be a bad thing afterall except I have to plan my schedule in the initial stage when I transfer there..Hopefully my new boss will not be the same pattern as my current one..haha..

Kena Arrowed

Nabei, just received a sms by my direct supervisor to take charge of a project..KNN..Kena arrowed even when I am not in team..WTF man..Anw my motto for this project is"Anyhow do, anyhow submit"..You may ask me why am I saying this..It is because I feel it's a total waste of time doing such project...Too many reasons to list down here..I really think this project is just to meet some stupid quota only and nothing else..One word for it *BULLSHIT*..
Ps: For people who know, the project starts with 'W'..

Finally coming to an end

Finally, July is coming to an end..I have been on loan to other department BUT doing the same job which is even worse than what I imagined..Been working for every week from Tues to Sat from 2pm-10pm since the start of July..It may seem a short timing but if you really try it out, you will get to know what I mean by TIRED!!I am telling you, reporting for work at 2pm is no joke especially when the sun is scorching hot which makes me so fu*king lethargic..Before I was on loan, I heard that even on my off days on Sun and Mon, I might be call back for extra duty which they will/will not pay back which I am not sure..But lucky for me, I was not call back during these past off days..Anw during this period when I am on loan, I get to learnt other teams culture and their supervisors "pattern"..Really feel some of them are "over protecting" their men and I am always kena "pin point" for NOTHING...Hopefully this is the first and last time I am going to do this type of shift again..I am so sick of my job now..Sux...;(

I having Gout!?

Yesterday morning, I was awoken by the pain caused by my right big toe for no apparent reason..Initially I thought it will go away in the later part of the day but I was wrong..In the end I had to inform my team that I have to take MC for today because the pain was unbearable whenever I step onto the ground and I only have to walk limping..So today, I went to polyclinic LIMPING and saw a GP who told me that I may have gout which is also known as uric acid..She suggested to me for a blood test which I agreed and took on the same day..I was told to see a doctor a week later for the result..My father had gout and is under medication and I do not know whether I inherit from him or it was due to my daily food habit..I managed to search the web and find out the definition of "Gout"..Click on the link if you are interested to find out.. http://www.labtestsonline.org/understanding/conditions/gout.html cos it will be dry if I paste the whole meaning here..Hopefully medication the GP prescribe to me can reduce my pain now..
ps: I was given 2 days of MC and this is the first time since I work at my current job which I was given 2 days of MC straight..Sorry for the inconvenience caused to the DO..

Cont'd

Today, I had met up with my boss and told him straight about my application for external posting and as expected, he said he needed someone who is keen on the admin officer post..Hence, he said thank you to me..So in the end, it's back to square one..Hopefully I have make the right choice by staying in the team and make it out someday..:P

Dilemma

Just got a news I am one of the candidates for Admin officer post in my dept..I have heard of this news from someone before but I was waiting for confirmation only and did not know it is true until the actual Admin officer called me today..Anw my heart was 50/50 about going there and I told her straight..50% reluctant because
1) I WILL definitely miss my team if I am choosen
2) I can predict the "shit" job up there
3) I got other application with other dept which not many knew about it (but I will tell the boss frankly if he choose me)
And the 50% interested are because
1) I believed if I do well, I might be appreciated in whatever way which is MUCH more better than my current boss
2) I will get to have weekends and PH off which especially PH have the possibilities of extra duty and I dread MOST!!
3) I can plan my time better??
4) No more night shift!!I don't actually dread night shift but I only hate to do RB which I think is the most time wasting thing to do!!
5) No more talking to nonsense people and explaining nonsense to them which sometimes they already knew but insist on doing their way!! Damn stupid...hehehe..:p
6) No more white files?!!hahaha..

Hmm..So based on the above reasons on reluctant/interest, I guessed maybe I should give it a try??But I will tell the boss I got other application and if he is still knee to "hire" me, I will be more glad than to accept but if not then so be it..Hahaha..Nothing to lose for me though..:)
Anyone got any comments or suggestions, please tell me SOON!!

Just bored

Just went to JB yesterday with my friend..Anw i find that the fashion and trend are similar to us EXCEPT that they are cheaper..especially the petrol..WHY??Why the petrol goes up in a time like this??Electric bills also goes UP!!!!What are they thinking??Economic better now??Commoners like us getting richer????GST rebate of $200/- machiam ALOT???Damn..

Happy 1st Year Anniversary dEaR!

Today is our 1st Year Anniversary since we ROM..Time really flies fast..It doesn't take much a few blink of the eye and a year has come..During the past one year, it was blissful to have her around..Yea, we do quarrel sometimes because I cannot possibly say we were so loving for 365 days round the clock and I cannot deny there were times when we had our disagreements over certain issues, be it big or small, but we are able to settle it by the next following day..This is, I guess, a norm for a married couple..However, I still do hope we can preserve these moments and many more to come so that when our hair turn white, we can think back on the lovely moments we have now..:)

Anw went to Suntec City last night to have a mini celebration..Reached Suntec at about 10plus and went to buy movie tickets for Transformer2..After that, we rushed down to the basement 1 hoping to fill our stomaches with some nice food..However, almost all the restaurant was closed except for New York New York..It was 10.24p.m. and was told last order at 10.30p.m. so we quickly placed our orders and our meals before the movie starts which was 11.15p.m...So you can imagine how we munch on our food..haha..Anw the dinner and movie went well and simple..But I believed it was not the food or the movie but the company and thought which round up the whole celebration smoothly..:)

ps: Transformer2 was up to my expectation though some people may think otherwise..Cheers:)

Forte in Rally!!

I can't believe my eyes when I saw my 2nd "wife" taking part in Rally..Happened to see it when browsing through some Forte forum..haha..Now I am feeling even proud of her..hehe..:)

Taking a breather

It has been a long time since I last brought my wife out because she has been working non stop as she is currently manning her own manicure shop in Far East Plaza..Recently just managed to take breather at East Coast park at night after her work..It was a short walk and chat but the atmosphere was nice and the weather was good and windy..I find that it was actually nice to take a walk with yr love ones once in awhile..It may recapture some fond momeries at times when you were at a place before..My next outing with her should be watching movie bahh cos our anniversary coming soon and after her work only left cinema which is the last place to close at night..Looking for a nice movie to watch..Hmmm..

Gathering

It's been a long time since I last saw my ex colleagues..Yesterday managed to meet up at a pub for a chat and casual drink..Though the timing was short as I had to go back early but I was happy to see them again..I remembered the last meet up should be during one of our female colleague wedding in Dec last year? The moment I saw them, I recalled the times we had together when we were still in the same team in year 2003 to 2006? I believed that was the most memorable times I had during my time in my current job..I guessed I won't have the same memorable time now as compared to those days..It was just too bad that this is part of life..People comes and goes..Everyone will have to think for themselves in term of making choices in their career path and we can't possibly expect them to stay at a post for too long when they have the chance to explore to new environment where they prefer right? As for me, I am still hoping to see light at the end of the tunnel..Looking forward to next gathering, whenever possible..

Eat Grass

Just got the news that there will not be any bonus in July for Civil servant..This news comes for a shock to me (at least)..Not because I do not know about the current recession but I do not understand why?Why, in this situation, I still remember they emphasize on spending so as to keep the economic moving..How, in this kind of situation, they still failed to give out bonus to civil servant when they are considered one of the majority of working class and hence, they are the potential people who are willing to spend to increase the GDP..Now that they won't be getting their bonuses, how on earth are they going to spend and increase the GDP and improve the economic?Haiz...I predicted due to this, the time for the recession to recover will take a longer period as lesser people will be spending and they will think thrice when spending...There will be more problems arising due to this which I don't wish to mention here..Is it a clever or bad (stupidity) move? Only time will tell....

New Laptop

Guess what? This topic was written using my new laptop given as a freebie together with my SJQ!!hahaha..Went to Starhub today to search for mobile broadband cos thought it will be cheaper as I have all 3 subscription with them (hp, maxonline and SCV)...But darn, have to extend my maxonline or hp line in order to get a $19/- (estimated) monthly subscription for MB...Too bad, mine isn't eligible for extension so the staff informed me that I still have to pay about $27/- per month which is still cheaper than normal price..So I went to Singtel thinking that it may have a better deal..And yes indeed..Though the price is also about the $19/- but I do not have to extend contract BUT it had a limit usage of only 30GB...So I called up my friend and he informed me that he took M1 plan which has unlimited usage..SO yoy know what happened next right? I went straight to M1 after that and YES, I saw a promotion of $15.70/- per month with unlimited usage with no other condition..So eventually I signed up for the plan..haha..So now I can surf net using a laptop le..wahaha..abit mountain turtle, I know...hee..:)
ps: The price I mentioned above is only for 1 Mbps..Though not THAT fast but still enough for me to surf, blog and chat..haha

Goodbye SFY...

Recently, I just part with my first "wife"..She had been companying me to and fro from work and leisure for the past 3 years 8 months and 12 days...I will miss her...For now, I just hope my second "wife" will be better than her because I traded in for her with my first "wife"..Anw I forgot to take photos of my first "wife"..damn..Wonder where is she now?In a scrapyard?:(

All in the Mind

It's 12/05/2009 0640hrs, I was awake before my handphone sounds the alarm..I switched it to 0650hrs and when near to the time, I switched it to 0700hrs..Finally, I sms my colleague asking whether he still want to go IPPT and his reply is "follow you lei.."I wanted to find an excuse not to go (although I was the one who suggested it) And so I asked him whether his side is going to rain since he stayed somewhere near the test centre..And reply is "...nice for running.."something like that..And I thought for awhile and replied him "See you there.."Although it was quite reluctant, I still went to wash up and drag myself and met him at the test centre..This is a once a year physical training test aka IPPT which I believed most of us hate it most!? Furthermore, this time round, it was only me and him..Haiz..As usual, the first 4 stations went through smoothly and I knew I have to maintain my morale there and keep up the pace during the "killer" which was the 2.4km run..While my colleague went for some kind of cycling test..So I was the only one in my team to run..Sad right..However, this year I was in Cat Y1 catergory which means I can have more time to complete my run..hehe..So with that thought in mind, I went on with the run..And guess what, I managed to complete the run and managed to get a silver. As usual, without stopping..I guess it's all in the mind when you have to go through this alone..I believe it goes the same when you have to handle certain issues in life..Just remember "It's all in the mind"..If you think you can make it, you will defintely make it..It is just a matter of time..
ps: My colleague also passed and I am glad we went for the IPPT that day because I dun have to think for it for the next one year..Haha..:)

My Bloody Valentine

Just watched this movie 2 days ago at Vivo GV together with my wifey..Not really a fantastic moive but I watched it because of the 3D effect experience..Have to wear a special glasses throughout the whole show and in the process, the glasses caused discomfort to my ears..Guess GV has to look into this matter..Effect was ok..Better den normal movie..However, once you wear the glasses, you cannot really take care of your belongings because it is so dark especially with the glasses on..So guys when you watch 3D movie please take care of your belongings..^^

Chance

Recently, I casually asked my friend who work in another department under the same organisation whether they have any vacancy. I got a immediate reply to ask me to send my Resume to him as there is a vacant post at the moment..Haha..Though it may be casual but I must say this is a chance for me to finally leave my dull and boring place where life is begining to be just "black and white" and not as lively as before..Though the chance may not be that strong but I will just give it a try..It may be more hectic in the new place but I am ready..Ready to leave the current place and towards a new working environment, anytime...^^

Boycott

Ever since our "beloved" supervisor announced that everyone (same or above my post) have t0 attend morning briefing, ALMOST EVERYONE have since started to boycott him by not buying food at night and morning, and also lesser conversation with him(we will normally ask him whether he want any food PREVIOUSLY because no matter what he is our supervisor)...I guessed he has realised that we are "up" to something and I realised he has since been less talkative and usually he WILL have to call someone to buy for him (so that person "lan lan" but we understand because bobian he still our supervisor)..Nowadays, he will finish his food with less talking and MIA after that.. His face seldom got any facial expression except for "black".. haha.. I guess right now, he only want to wait for his pension and get the f**k out only.. Regarding the morning briefing thingy, I guess he don't care whether we boycott him anot, he will still continue to plan his stooopid monthly roster on the morning briefing every beginning of a new month...But anyway who cares, if my turn, I will go lor but buy food for him?? NO WAY!!Because he don't deserve it!!^^

Cerato Forte

Hi everyone, I need comments on the new KIA Cerato Forte..Please visit the website and give me some comments..Thanks..^^

Experience

Just came back from PSA Dragon Boat Competition not long ago..Well, I was selected to row for Mixed Team Final consisting of 4 women and 6 men..Came in 5th out of 6th..We lost, ya..Sad we did not win medal (but it was my first time ok ^^)..Anyway, our team Men's Final won the second place and it was great race among other divisons..Congrats to them..^^

ps: There is a big different between training and competition..In water tides and the tension..Maybe next time if there is a chance, I believe I can do better.

Competition

Finally, after 5 times of training (I know it's not alot), tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Competition among Divisions..Though I still do not know whether I will be selected to row (cos there are many other professionals in my team), I will still support my team!! Hopefully we are able to win some medals back!!^^

Transfer

Well, another guy from my team is going to a secretive world tomorrow just like one of my ex colleague..I should congrat him to having to able to leave our current supervisor..Hope he can do well over that side..Good luck bro..^^

MLM

MLM..It stands for Multi Level Marketing..It was a so-called self employement business which was already in market since a long time ago..Many people have actually gained and suffered from MLM..Actually according to my friend, it was illegal as it was similar to a business method known as Pyramid a long time ago..Because it was banned by our government, perhaps that is why they change it to MLM..To me MLM is just a mindset for people to earn many times money compared to what they are earning now or previously, in short, to earn quick money..However, they never really think, is there really such a good lobang? Are you doing the right thing when you ask your friends or their friends to join? Can you guarantee they can earn or take back their capital which they fork out in the first place(Because I know most MLM requires people to buy their so called products before they can become a member)? Will you feel guilty if your friends failed? Will your friends still be friends if they failed or will they drift away from you when the so called business turn sour? I strongly believe wealth is earn through proper channel by getting a proper job and by saving up(and perhaps trying a little luck on 4D occassionally for me..hehe)..But to have a mindset on earning quick money and earning big bucks in a short time requires some sacrifices, like your friends etc(like what I mentioned earlier when things turn sour)..So better think twice before you decide on pouring your hard earned money into this so called business as you might not reap what you sow..^^

Stoopid, Idiotic and Lazy

I have been working since I was 15 year old, as part time and full time staff for various companies..But this is the first time I ever seen the most stupid, idiotic and lazy supervisor ever in my whole life..I guess I will never meet another one like him again(hopefully) because he is the extreme..All he did every time he goes to work is to sit at counter, talk c*ck, talk about his "glamourous" history, his (low) intelligence son studying in RI (Retarded Institution, I guess) and then ask who is going to buy food (for him)!? At first, I still can tahan all his nonsense but recently, he has gave us (my position and above) some "pattern" and that is to attend a morning briefing at HQ after our night shift!! I mean what the heck right? Usually, he will be the one who sleeps about 5am while we are still working or awake..In the end, we (the one working) have to attend the morning briefing on his behalf??Where is the world coming to? I know he is going to pension soon but this is really too much..I "really" hope his precious son won't let him down and he get his pension without any problem..Always remember Heaven has eyes too..^^

Day 2 of Training (for me)

Today marks the day 2 of my training..As usual, kena f**k..haha..but what the heck, who never kena f**k before in their whole life? So just take it easy lo..Perhaps my current job already made me immune to all the "f**king" session because I met too many nonsense people and sometimes I also f**k people when I got fed up of their nonsense? Haha..So I know how it feels when a person got angry when you cannot reach their expectation..I guess we all have to learn to let go after the incident and not take it to heart because most of the time it is for our own good (depending on situation)..Anw I predicted there will be more "f**king" and tougher sessions for the upcoming training so I must keep myself mentally prepare..Maybe I must think like a Commando now??^^

Dragon Boat Training

Today is the first day AND first time I went for a Dragon Boat training..The day started with running..Running was ok..BUT when I ran halfway I realised that my legs will somehow, no matter what, hurt at both joints at the kneel cap after long distance running..However, I persevered to the end..Nothing happen after the run..(For your info, it was more than 2.4km)..BUT when it came to dragon boat rowing, I think I suck at it but still I want to get a feel of it and managed to get a hand of it at the end of the day though not perfectly correct stroke..Anw Rome is not build in a day too right, so I guess that is why it is called TRAINING!haha..Then there comes the pain, my both joints at my kneel cap..In the end I have to walk limping now after the training..Hopefully it will heal in two days time because I got another training again..^^

ps: Anw the training is for a sea sports carnival which will takes place in 19/02/09.. Hopefully I won't let the team down..

Undecisive

Been thinking whether to change my "wife" because it has been 3 years 4 months and 26 days since we are together..Not because I dun love "her" anymore and not because "she" is causing any problems..But somehow, I predicted there will be many unforesee problems arising as years goes by..So I can only choose to utilise the cost on repairing, replacement and servicing or to use it on a new "wife" on monthly instalments..However, this time round IF I were to find a new "wife", I will most probably find a Japanese "wife" because should be more lasting and lesser problems than my current Korean "wife" in long run. I have tried to calculate the cost and most probably it is best if I can "divorce" my current "wife" during our 4 to 5 years anniversary..Hopefully we won't feel sad when we part that day..Anw all these are my assumptions..Maybe in the end I will not "divorce" her?? ^^

Pre CNY (Part 2)

Taking leave on CNY is such a simple thing to many people BUT not to my occupation due to lack of manpower.Although I may seem to have manage to take leave for my CNY but it does not come easy..My colleagues have been asking for my permission to let them have the leave on the CNY 2nd day which is my 1st shift of work but I really cannot because I have yet to see my wife relatives and she is going to bring me to them and I have promised her.. Although my colleagues are okay with my reason but turning them down does not mean I feel good at all...This is basically one of my reasons why I want to get out of my current job and perhaps change to office hours so that I can have a proper off during festive seasons to keep my family company and at the same time not offending anyone at work..Hopefully you guys understand.

ps: Anw I got the feeling if one person take MC I might still have to go back to work...It s**k big time when I think of that!

Pre CNY

Finally I am able to spring clean today. Did some CNY shopping also but nothing much bought..Just some normal tibits and drinks because we know not much people coming also and mostly all the tibits and drinks will be finish by us in the end..Hahaha..Anw bought 4D for last wed, sat and today BUT all the numbers never come out...Haiz, thought can have a "huat huat" CNY with pocket full full but in the end spend more money...Damn.. Anw 4D is really not for me, I guess..Eventually finding a better job (preferably with better salary) is my goal..^^
ps: Wishing all the Chinese folks have a Happy CNY and HUAT AR!!

Granny (Final)

Just came home from Bright Hill Temple after my grandma's cremation..It was sad..Sad not solely because she is gone but because knowing that she had so many great grandchildren but not of them really take the death seriously..Maybe it was because they doesn't get the kind of love which my grandma gave me and my sister when we were young?Anyway heard from my mum mentioned that my nephew's girlfriend who has 'yin' yang' eyes saw my grandma came back for dinner last night and when my mum and her sisters and brother were discussing, my grandma's daughter-in-law from THAT family told them not to discuss anymore..(Those who knew what I was talking about perhaps know why she does not want to discuss it)
I hope my grandma can rest in peace now. She will be always in my heart....

Granny (Part 2)

I heard my home telephone started to ring early in the morning at about 6 plus. I was still in bed at that time and I overheard my mum talking over the phone. I knew my grandma had passed away in the wee hours around 4 plus. For those who had read my post earlier, this news doesn't come unexpected. However though, I still think back what she had contributed to many, especially her children and grandchildren. If without the ungracious act of chasing her out of the house by the ungrateful son and daughter-in-law in the first place, I believe my grandma will still be welcoming us this coming CNY. I am wondering now; do the ungrateful son, her daughter-in-law and their so call filial children feel guilty for her death? I believe my grandma did not really passed away peacefully knowing that her own son did this to her. Anyway, I do pray my grandma can rest in peace and forget the unhappy incidents that had happened to her when she was alive and perhaps she will find a better family to reincarnate in her next life.

Vulnerable

Today I received news that one of my male cousin passed away. He was handicapped before he was gone and heard he passed away in the morning in bed at home. Previously, I had came across alot of such incidents but it actually happened to one my relatives whom I known and I suddenly realise life is so vulnerable. One can be alive in a moment and gone in another moment without much symptoms. I guess I should treasure the people around me especially my family members because today you cannot predict what is going to happen tomorrow.
