Was feeling great yesterday.First attempt at Fried Bee Hoon for lunch. Received good compliments. Lovely feeling. =)
Then dear and I went to visit Meow Me at 232 again. Miss her loads.
There are more pictures ard hers. More frens to accompany her.
Took some pics but cant seem to upload. Sianz.
Thereafter, dear and I went on a date. =) We wanted a refreshing change... to reminiscence those days of "pak toh-ing" before we got together memories. But wasnt really successful.
Cannot hold hands- Fail. Its an automatic action.
Cannot share drinks- Fail. Why waste $$ buy le cant finish.
Getting to know you questions- Super fail. This simply is the last straw. I cant stop laughing.
Then we went to catch UP (3D) at The Cathay. First time watching 3D movies. Nothing much leh I feel. Perhaps its the movie. Maybe something more action packed would be good.
Had dinner at Waraku (Heerens)where I simply cant decide on what to eat. End up with some spicy udon which is more salty than spicy. Not satisfied... maybe cos I was still thinking of the Sashimi Salad I had at Suki Sushi with Laura & Raymond the day before... Simply delicious.
Yaya.. I went to Orchard again.. despite me exclaiming abt e horrible bird dropping incident in the previous post. Was on a mission mah. *grinZ*
We went to Paragon next... Longchamp.. Dun have the limited edition bag I wanted... =(
Dropped by Burberry to "miao" the bags. Sigh. How I wish I have one.. How I wish I have one.. Wish I have one.. Wish I have one.. How I wish I have one.. Wish I have one.. I have one.. Wish I have one... How I wish I have one... Hmm.. Re-read this para?
Starting work present. Literally a direct translation of "Kai Gong Li Wu!!!" =)
Thanks dear! Muacks!!!
Oh but this morning, I had a bad dream. Dreamt that Meow Me jumped out of the window again. And I wasnt fast enough to catch her. Woke up with a shout and a very bad feeling in my heart. Cant remember what I shouted too. Sigh.

OK so who can be more suay than me today? Or technically yesterday cos its now 12.55am.
Was shopping at orchard and kena bird shit not once BUT TWICE!
Where the hell does all the birds come from?
Why me of all people?! So many pedestrians on the pavement!
And why not Shawn!?! Ok that's bad... but what I really meant was why am I so suay?!?!
WHY ME?!?!
We were already on the way to the carpark when suddenly, the freaking bird shit dropped on my right forearm. Black slimy stuff! Biangz!!!!! But nevermind! Relax! Dear wiped it away for me then we proceed to Heerens with the intention to wash my hands. But just before we entered Heerens, something hit my hair. I said "shit!" and quickly asked Shawn to take a look for me. Luckily, its just some aircon water or sthin. After washing my suay hand, we crossed the road but instead of getting the car, I decided to make a U-turn to taka just to take a look at sthin. Walk walk walk... wrong choice loh!
Piak again!!!
And this time right in the middle of my forehead!
Wat the ^!%@&!*^#(O@&!#*)P@!#({@!(#@!)_(&#^*(!&%^$#&!@%&^(*#)!_@+!
This time I really gave a shout loh!!! But not that loud to attract attention from anyone (I hope!)
But luckily its not much. Brown this time!
WHY ME AGAIN?!!?!
Cleaned up at taka, shop a bit and went home.
Wat a horrible day. Twice in a day.
Going to buy 4d tomolo.
Not goin to orchard unless obsolutely necessary. Now I hate birds even more! GRRRR!!!
p/s: nope shawn didnt laf. Cos I was already angry with him prior to all the shit.

14th August was my last day at the bank. Had mixed feelings on that day.
Glad to leave for a career change but sad to leave my wonderful colleagues.
The memories we shared aint replaceable.
Its not as if everything was smooth sailing.. not as if everything was all smiles and laughters.
But it is all those memories and experiences, good and bad, that allowed me to grow throughout the five & a half year stay there. I have learnt and gained a lot there. And all these are not possible without the wonderful colleagues.

Still remember my first day at AMK br on 3rd Feb 04. The first person I spoke to was Kanita. She looked so serious and fierce looking. As time pass, realised that she is such a fun person to be with. Raymond was my shi fu. The crappy but fun "mentos" colleague. Laura the gentle lady. Betty Boo the strict but great teacher. TPG the SDB in charge who kept passing stuff to me. haha.. Good in a way cos I learnt more things too. Yvonne Chua whom I learnt abt the sales process from. And so many other colleagues like Susan Lim, Susan Han, Siew Fong, Angeline, Serene, Soo Fern, Ginelle, Emily, Laywee, Jovan, Andy, Wei Chye etc etc whom taught me stuff in one way or another.
A great change came when my role as Sales Support Officer was centralised at SWB. That was on 10th Oct 05. When I first met up with my team 3 colleagues, I was secretly forming my own impression of them. Bee Geok-Fierce and unfriendly. Cynthia & Joanne- Super friendly. Grace- Unfriendly. Hilary- Happy go lucky. Suat Teng- Friendly. But as time pass, everyone got along so well and the bond was very strong in the team. Dont judge a book by its cover... this was wat I learnt.=) Miss those days.... We had such fun and laughter. No wonder our boss Kim like our team so much. hahaha.. i think ba.. Cos when the group was restructured, most of us at team 3 was actually assigned critical roles. Going to bhb a bit here.. Bee, Cyn and I were also offered positions in the area office but we declined. We love team 3 too much to leave them. It was also during this period of time that Kim promoted me in rank. This recognition though unexpected, was very important to me. It spurred me on to perform even better.
Then there was the time when a "flood" occurred at SWB. Thanks to some air con pipes bursting. It was both horrible and fun. Still remembering wading in the knee height water with the rest.. trying to make sure all the boxes were "saved". Everyone cooperated with great teamwork. I like!
Memories at Hong Lim was just as great. We shifted here in year 2007??... gosh I cant remember! But anyway, we had fun exploring the new place. Lots of new places to eat.. and more shopping can be done during lunch. But it is over here that I realised team 3 was really starting to lose its members.. Suat Teng resigned whilst we were at SWB, Joanne left us for a change in role, Grace resigned, Cyn transferred and subsequently got retrenched... Leaving only Bee, Fang and Me. But it was also over here that my frenship with colleagues like Rei, Sharon, Shirley, Carole etc grew. There there was Allan (Ali) whom I kept bullying. haha.. And my lover Farha..... So many things happened there. So many teething issues with each change, the High Notes issue which "brought us" the days of dust and boxes. Somehow felt that there is a clash in my sheng cheng ba zhi and the hong lim office. Things were not as smooth sailing. Bad news came to find me whilst I was in there. Mum fell ill and there were visits to the hospital for checks ups, one of my favourite aunt pass away... my meow me came into my life but left abruptly.
Had a lovely time snapping shots with the colleagues on 13th & 14th Aug. But what I really wish for was a group photo of the whole CSO team... but sad to say it aint possible with the 50plus people all hard at work. Though I doubt anyone in office erm.. I mean ex-office.. knows abt the existence of this blog, I will still like to thank them for the wonderful presents and treats here. Ate so many rounds of good food that I felt so heavy during the last week!
Ok enuff!!
So as I leave this office for a post in MOE, I bring along with me the wonderful memories and experiences. Truely hope that I will be able to thrive in the new position. Canteen food here I come!

Counting down to my last day at work... ...Strictly speaking.. it shall be 4 more days.
But I doubt there will be any work for me to do on next friday.. So its only 3 more work days.
But then again... KM might just want to make full use of me.. hahaha...
Packed some of my barang barang today.. cos dear met me for lunch and I may just as well dump the barang barang into his car. Realised that I have got a collection of ornaments and soft toys... All given by my wonderful colleagues over the years. Got a collection of Keychains too.. =) Managed to put the stuff into 1 copier paper box. Not much squeezing too.. but machiam like being sack like that.. haha.. Shit. I nearly forgot my Meow Meow Cup!! Must remember!!! Given by ex boss Jacklyn for my bdae a few yrs back!
As I was looking through my medical claims, realised that I have been visiting the doc quite a lot this yr. Too weak perhaps? Or stressed until sick? =p
But no sickness beat the recent cold I have got. Amendment. Should be no sickness beat the cold I am still recovering from. Been to the doc 3 times over a period of 3 weeks. Stupid cold... made me spend so much $$ and made me take so many days of mc. Later pple tot I purposely one... But seriously, this is the worse cold I have had. Sore throat. Sneezing. Cold. Block nose. Block ears. Eye Infection. Only thing worthy of all this undesirable feeling is the loss of 1kg! hahaa... Better than exercising!! Better than diarrhoea!! Opps!
Oh ya we went to DFS today. Took a look at the bags at Burberry and Coach. Should I get the Burberry one? Keeping my options open!!! But I cant bear to part with the $$$!! His $$$ also my $$$ leh!!! I am sooooooooo bad! *Pout*
Gosh, its late. Gotta sleep soon. Going for our 1st appt with HDB tomolo. Followed by lunch at dear's Ma Ma house and painful facial at Maggie's. Hopefully we can squeeze in time for a quick stopover at IMM. Choosing of suitable Interior Designer is such a headache!! Same goes for gown designs!!! Headache ah!!!! -_-"
