*Yawnz*

I've been like getting 5 hours of sleep per day since Monday and though the weekend is here, I’ll be so tied with our marketing project to have a good rest.

Sunday will be a long day @ the CC to finish up the project…

I know I’m loved when:

- She (Sis) went down to Chinatown to buy Lim Chee Guan’s ba kwa

- She (Mummy) cooked chicken slices with ginger

- He (Daddy) waited till 8.30pm to buy my favourite char siew pau from Crystal Jade.

All these when I mentioned that I FEEL like eating it… keke

*blush* I heart my Family!

Yes!!! I’ve finally resigned!

Handed the letter to “white shark” together with Ann and she asked if it’s really “unworkable’” there. How I feel like saying a straight YES to her face. Anyway, colleagues said their congrats and well wishes to us. A couple of my auditors mentioned that it’s a pity as I was beginning to build a rapport with them and they think that I’m a good scheduler. At that moment I felt really appreciated unlike the management who thinks otherwise as they showed no signs of intention to retain us. Nevertheless, I continued to clear my on handwork, as I did not want to give the impression that I’m doing slipshod jobs right after handing in the letter.

7 resignations letters in a month… do they realize what’s wrong and why is this happening… As of date, I think they’re still unaware, as no replacement of schedulers has been gotten yet...

Nice People

I’m glad that I’m surrounded by some nice and sweet classmates.

The gal who:
- printed chapters of notes for me upon knowing that I can’t do so in the office.
- bought Chewy Junior for me when I casually asked if the stall is near her office.

The couple who:
- assisted in our group project.
- drove us to their home so that we can finish our project with the internet connection.
- cooked dinner while we rushed on our project.
- offered to have a class gathering BBQ at their condo.

: )

How time flies...half a year is gone

Things hasn’t been going too well for me this month.

Hope everything turns for the better soon...

( - ) Negative Updates...

There’s not much positive stuffs happening around me therefore the lack of update. Rants below:

-Work SUCKS BIG time! Can’t wait for the day to come when I’ll throw the resignation letter in their face ;p
- School will soon be packed with projects and tests . It certainly doesn’t help to have a super kiasu/straight As/negative thinking classmate in my group. But, maybe her kiasuism will be a good influence to me?!?
- GSS is here but my bank accounts forbids me to drought it further.

Meeting the gals this Wed!! Cant wait to gorge and rant!

I can live without chilli!!

Wow, it has been 2 weeks since I last touched those red hot stuff. My beautician told me to keep them away from my plate to “test” if chillies are affecting my bad complexion. Though I’m not very sure if it's helping, it seems like my complexion are “seeing some light at the end of the tunnel” keke. Fingers crossed!!!

School has officially started last week - 3 modules for this term. For the 1st time in my entire life, I enjoyed my lesson, 1 particular module that is – Consumer Behaviour. The lecturer rocks!!! He’s so interesting and despite ending the lessons slightly later after10pm, I don’t have the “stop talking and end the lesson” feeling. Respect. Unfortunately, we do have 1 uninteresting lecturer for organisational development :(

Class of 29 pax and lets hope that they’ll be a fun bunch of people to have fun + mugging our books together ;p

The Phantom is Back!


Despite watching it in London back in 2004, I knew I had to get the tickets when adverts splashed across the newspaper in around Oct last year. Using Mummy’s DBS card, we got the supposedly last show - 15th Apr during the priority booking period. I was so excited with the fact that we got Cat 1, middle seats + “last show” tickets. Who knows.... Due to GOOD response, the show was extended to 20th May!!! Anyway, when we bought the tickets last year, Apr seemed like a long time from then. However, time passed by fairly quickly and soon I found myself reminding my always the busy Sis on our “date”.

As her Bday was the next day, the plan was to treat her something nice. Her choice – Areins @ City Hall. Well...she claims that the food did not taste as nice as before, but luckily the apple pie dessert saved the day.

After dinner, we walked to the Esplanade for the much anticipated sold out show. Anyway I suck in writing, therefore, here’s how I’ll describe the show = good seats (smack in the middle column, row P), grand setting, great voice, live band, the Phanthom = definitely worth $135.00!

What’s missing was the courage to stand up to give them a standing ovation. Blame the barang barang on my hand (shawl & clutch)

How are you?

Have you ever had a time when a friend, ex-classmate, ex- teacher etc comes into you mind suddenly and you wonder how’s he/she doing now? Are they married? How’s their working life? Or simply, if they’re doing fine....

Well, I do have a few in mind and perhaps someday, somewhere, I’ll bump into them in this small city. And when the time comes, I’ll give a sincere smile and acknowledge their presence because they’re those who have crossed my mind.

Cupcakes gifts


Ordered 3 boxes cupcakes for a friend who has been real nice to help buy some apparels with huge discount! So far, Sis and I have saved about $250 in all.

However, I was quite disappointed on how small the cupcakes were in real. Anyway, the measurements were stated on the price list, just that I did not really bother about it when ordered. Hope they like these pretty cupcakes!!

Korean Food - craving satisfied

Mummy decided that since I was the one who has craving for (Crystal Jade) Korean food, I should be the one who foot the bill. Okieee…. What more can I say…

We ordered ala carte dishes this time and I think it was too much for us 3 ladies to finish it. Nevertheless I still went ahead to order one bowl of white rice to “go” with the kimchi (to Mummy’s dismay)!! Hahaha

I’ll let the pics to the talking...


. my fav kimchi . seafood pancake . beef .
. bibimbap . saba fish . free side dishes .

Metamorphosis Dinner & Dance - 23 March

It's lucky that I've got a new dress at home, which fits the theme for this year D&D - Metamorphosis.

Mummy did some stitching to the front which made feel more comfortable wearing it coz without it, it was way too revealing even with the help of Hollywood secret’s tape.

We were given time off at 3.30pm to prepare for the dinner. Though there were many discussions on whether I should head to the professionals to do my hair and makeup, I ended up doing it on my own (with Mummy's turquoise/gold clip & Sis's loose powder + eyeshadow).

Journey there was silly - I ended walking from Lucky Plaza to Meritus Mandarin. Upon reaching, the photographer got me, Ghaya and her cousin to take a group photo (with my shawl on)... I thought to myself "aiyah wasted lah... my dress so nice, covered by the shawl leh". Haha, after which we went to to have our Metamorphoto taken (smth like a professional photo-shoot with backdrop) and a butterfly crystal tattoo! While mingling around, the photographer came and requested to take a solo picture of me as he thinks the dress fits the theme and it’s colorful *blush*

The food served was not very nice and even though the special guest was really PCK, it's not that entertaining as they incorporate the "story" of us being bought over by the new company in their skit. Oh and there's this best dressed award - there were 3 couples who wore really costume (think Victorian dress, green costume which looks like a broccoli and a butterfly like dress) and 4 other individuals who participated... But I was not called up leh.... Haha, not that I'm thicked skin but I think my dress is really nicer + fits the theme more :p (even my colleagues said so).



Won a $100 Tangs voucher which was considered really lucky as there were about 500 plus people around that night ; ) One regret for the night was that I did not stay on for photo taking with the man - Pua Chu Kang aka Gurmit Singh : (

Waiting for "Freedom"

I can't wait for April to come coz that will be my study break month before I go full force starting May for my official BCom studies!

But before that, I'll need to conquer my F&B operations and Biz Accounting, which will be held next Thur and Sat. Speaking of which, I've not started revising for it though plans have been made to go to the library on Sat to do research for the F&B operations. Will my balance sheet balance? I'm keeping my fingers cross…

Oh yah... and good news!!! My most feared subject - Biz Statistics = A+, Marketing Management = B ; )

For today's D&D, I've been refraining from a lot of food, which is a real torture since this is the time of the month that my cravings are like crazy. I can’t wait to get my hands on nasi briyani, muruku, Superdog, ramen and korean food!!!!!

Care

Daddy went for another operation yesterday @ SGH. Plans to visit him was cancelled again as he told Mummy that Sis and I need not go since he's fine already.

Anyway, he was out from the intensive ward today and transferred to a private ward. Perhaps, it's PMS @ work, which led me to being emotional, I dropped him an SMS asking if he's fine. He replied he's fine and that Mummy is with him. Replied him with "Okie, see you at home tmr"


I hope his wound is not hurting anymore and that he's really feeling fine : )

Crude - I'm not...

Okie, I think the following conversation is quite crude but funny in a way too:
I was drinking strawberry yogurt when 1 Ops Manager saw it. He's one who's always crapping with us and we'll always buy tea break for him.

he: what're you drinking?
me: there's none for you...
he; where did you get that from?
janice: from the toilet
he: oh, then it must be yellow color
me: no.... it's pink
he: ......too stunned for words
janice: laughing away

It was a few seconds later then I realized what's wrong (drink from toilet, and pink in color = something quite gross)

me: shit!!! I don’t mean that...

Told him that I'm too embarrassed to face him and that I don’t mean it that way.

he: I’ve never linked it to anything. It's you gals who have the crooked mind.

. the PINK drink .

I know our conversation is sooo crappy and has no added value... :p
