The “perfect” budget plan

The night before yesterday, I almost felt like dying, waking up in the middle of the night vomiting non-stop. But surprisingly, although feeling like a dead fish the next morning, I was active enough for a date after work.

Shopping around Orchard with this friend of mine is really interesting. We went into mostly branded shops, which I only do most of the time with CBG. We shared knowledge of the pronunciations of the brand names, and I definitely learnt something!

I never knew it could be so tough getting a present for a guy. Sometimes, guys can be more calculative than the ladies. Luckily, as both of us are accountants, we managed to compromise and come out with the perfect budget plan.

It’s also quite tough getting a gift that makes both parties happy. For hours, it’s either I’m happy, he’s not, or vice-versa. Finally, at the very last minute when the shops are closing, we managed to get the “perfect” gift, leaving our last destination satisfied.

Hope this gift will be one of the vital items he'll make use of in order to make his first step in revamping his image.

Business Woman

“Your businesses do until very big hor? Need secretary or not?”

Recently my mom has been saying this same phrase with sarcasm.

No wonder I am feeling SO tired these days.....

It's KOREA time!!

$10 for a Korean restaurant's set meal is cheap!

Was initially curious about this place, and was still doubting it's food since MANNA is so far the better one among the many Korean restaurants around the workplace.


Thanks to VY for accomodating this girl here who loves Korean food. This place feels so authentic with the warming services from the Korean waitresses.

Will I go to this place again? I might if my colleagues don't mind. =x

The Power of Chocolates

"I bought chocolates again!"
"You're really sad hor?"

And that's how powerful chocolates does to me. It makes me smile. =)

Unknowingly…

6 months passed unknowingly. From looking for fun, to seriously looking to desperately whacking, and now, a little demoralized.

Maybe I should just continue? Maybe I should wait for another year to a new transfer? Maybe I should change my criteria again? Maybe I should…. ??

Draw the line

I hope that this person will learn.

Learn how to draw the line, how to have the basic courtesy and respect for another person. Learn how to behave ethically and professionally, and have a 公私分明 behaviour.

For an example, when your boss ask you on certain issues, it’s not giving your boss the basic respect if you answer to your team leader/colleague instead. It’s not logical and of the right mind too.

This is not about the person's relationship with you, whether he/she is your boss, colleague or friend. This is about respecting the person who “calls the deal”.

Love in Disguise

It takes a lot to be well-known as the Music Man ~


蝴蝶眨几次眼睛
才学会飞行
夜空洒满了星星
但几颗会落地
我飞行,但你坠落之祭
很靠近,还听见呼吸
对不起,我却没抓紧你

你不知道我为什么离开你
我坚持不能说放任你哭泣
你的泪滴像倾盆大雨碎了满地
在心里清晰

你不知道我为什么狠下心
盘旋在你看不见的高空里
多的是,你不知道的事

Birthday updates

Some of you may be wondering how I spent my long birthday weekend after my advanced celebration with my colleagues and friends on Friday.

I basically did nothing special! =x But I am enjoying it!!

Woke up in the morning on Sunday, planning to go Tortoise museum, but due to some issues, the trip was cancelled. Even though I was quite disappointed with the last minute notice, I managed to get myself another appointment.

LJS picnic at BD’s place while we indulged ourselves in ‘We Got Married’, watching 5 episodes at one shot, something which I can’t do it when I am at home. Time just flies when you are doing happy things. (n.n)

Continued my day shopping for farewell gifts with my family, headed home for dinner, and got my favourite Black Forest cake!



On the exact day, today, Alice came and had prata breakfast with me at Bukit Timah. I haven’t been going to the prata place for ages and it simply tastes better each time. We had a long chit-chat session and I miss her lah!!



Back home, my mom had prepared birthday mee sua for me. A custom she always does on my birthday. And she always says the same thing, which is one of her words she always repeats that can never sound irritating to me.



"棉线代表长命,要珍惜生命。
鸡蛋圆圆满满,让生活圆满。
葱代表聪明,不要一直笨笨下去。
虾是hea,要记得笑嘻嘻。"

Thanks Mom.

=)

Another memorable day

The nauseating thing first, the company’s building is “raining” s***t! Constructions have been going since last year; we have heard many happenings during the process like people trapped in the lifts for hours, rats sneaking about the offices, power trips, water “conservation”, etc. But I guess the incident yesterday could be the most unforgettable one.

Sewage pipes from level 2’s washrooms burst and the filthy stuff went dripping from the ventilator-like holes to the lobby at level 1!

We were all disgusted by the sight and imagine we have to walk through the lobby’s pathway flooded with *** water?! Luckily we have alternative route out the building~ *phew

Now the sweet thing…

Weeks ago, BD bought me a smartphone. My first smartphone from a brand I fancy! I was guilty accepting his gift in the first place, but gave in and accepted it after months of pushing~ THANK YOU!! =D


On our way to class on Thurs, Jan suddenly hand me a jar that looks like it's filled with Kaya. =P It’s a jar full of candies! Jan went to customise the candies. So sweet of her! However, we were both kind of disappointed when I told her I don’t usually take candies. BUT the candies were so beautiful with the rainbow colour combinations, that my day will brighten up instantaneously at the sight of it. =)

Shared some of the lovely candies with my colleagues and all of them said it was nice! So I tried one of it, and to my surprise, it is really nice!!! Fruitty, sour-ish flavoured candies that I favour compared to those real sugary sweet ones.


看着这美丽的糖果,就会记得笑。
吃着这美味的糖果,就把快乐吃进肚子里!

Last year my colleagues/friends celebrated my birthday doing one of my favourite activities – KTVing. This year we went for my favourite Korean food for lunch! Well, it’s most of our favourite, so everybody was happy!

Going back with a satisfied, bloated stomach and I was shocked to see a bouquet of flowers on my desk! My boss was already back from lunch when I return to my work station, but the bouquet is definitely not from him. =P


I was smiling at the bouquet (my first bouquet can!!) as my boss went on disturbing me with “new admirers”, and I suddenly sensed shadows outside the room and hoho! I knew it! I knew it was from the lovely old them! I’ve been telling them how I would like to receive bouquet one day since last year, and even more for the past months and I got my wish come true!

Thanks Ah Bui so much for carrying the bouquet all the way from raffles on his AM half day, walking pass familiar colleagues and the pool of *** water just to put the bouquet on my desk while we waited for him at MANNA.

The gifts were lovely, and I love the card as well! Message from them, especially Alice’s made me wept so much that I have difficulty drafting my gratitude to the shareholders as my eyes were filled with tears. I miss you!!

To all once again, don't worry! I will always remember the cheerful and bubbly me no matter what! ;)


其实所有的未来,也许不一定都有答案。
只要把身心点燃,然后慢慢发光,渐渐变成了力量!

Went steamboat-ing with my poly friends in the evening. Ben is simply so good with prawns! He can do excellent prawning in ponds and POTS. Good job!


We had fun at the arcade until we stopped by this jackpot machine. THIS MACHINE! IS FAULTY!! IS FAULTY!! T_T


3 times in a row and all I got was 4 pathetic tickets from the machine from each try!! The others had multiple tries with different number of tickets and I am SO lucky lah!!

It was definitely a fun fun FUN day!!

FOODelicious Tuesday

It's gonna be a eat and grow fat week for me.

Burst my food budget for the day and in fact the week pampering myself to some good food with great companions!

First it was the lunch gathering with some of my nice nice colleagues at DeliVegi.


A great vegetarian restaurant that I highly recommend everybody, whether or not you're a vegetarian to try! They have a wide range of food from Chinese to Japanese and it's 100% suitable for vegetarian! The mock fish bento that I ordered is simply mouth watering even before trying, and it is SO yummy!!!

Mock Fish Bento

Cheese Tofu

Next it was dinner at Clementi.

Wanted to go for some coffee shop food, but my friend wanted to go to a more cooling place, yet doesn't want to have fast food, so we went to Sakae sushi for some ramen~ We were both shocked to see how BIG is the bowl and gave the waitress an instant shocking look. Think we he look like a comedian so much throughout our conversation that the waiter kept looking at our direction. =x

The BIG bowl

Bigger than a human head!!
