Last Friday of 2011

For the past few days, ive been slacking at work. Something that im not proud of. Well, it’s the year end and people are not supposed to work! And its also the time of the year, when one should recall what she/he has done for the past 12 months, good and bad things.

Lets see.

2. Nick and Jeremy were back for Lung’s wedding and we got to spend some time.

3. Ten’s family 3 little princesses were also back to visit their roots.

4. Overcame my fear of water sports!  GAHHHH!! 

5. Involved with the consultants at work, some rough time there but glad its all for the best.

6. Got myself a new lappie! My baby Blue.

7. Started to shop online and is addicted as I speak.

8. Finally got a smart phone! Me <3

Now… what I planned to achieve next year..

1. Be a more patient person

2. Lose some weight cos all the clothes online are so pretty and so so SMALL!! I cant fit!

3. Travel to more places. hopefully, somewhere further!

4. Get a new job!

5. Learn to control my temper

6. Love my parents more! <3

Yeah I think that’s about it!

May I take this opportunity to wish my fellow readers, friends & families, a very Happy New Year! May the New year bring more joy and happiness to you and your family and be blessed with good health and abundant wealth!!GOD BLESS!

Bali fever!!

Bali has been great. Full of surprises, loads of activities to do.. and hot topless European men! LOL

We celebrated ching's bday on Wed night. Not expecting anything, it was the best experience I had. It was my first time partying in flip flop in an open air club. The best club ever! The environment is like so nice with the best music ever! I fell in love with the place instantly. We celebrated ching's bday. She managed to find her prince charming aka Mr blue shirt guy. And I had a fair bit of fun too! :)

For the past few days, we managed to pack quite a number of outdoor activities such as padang beach, white water rafting, volcano trekking, water sports, water bomb..

How I wish my girls are here with me. I can guarantee that they will love Bali. Like deep deep! Next on my list is phuket. Will try visit that next year!

For now, Im looking forward to swimming with the dolphins! :)

Will post up more pics when I get back. Watch this space.

Getting it right the first time.

Dear miss smart ass,

You know for the past 3.5 years, I've been very patient with you. When u made mistakes, ill correct it for it. You talked so loud on the phone, we pretended u were singing. When u were told ur endless conversations were a nuisance to us, u lost ur temper. We didn't talk for a month.

Then ur mistakes were getting more ridiculous. You couldn't take criticisms. U finally lost it and said I disrespected u. U even wondered where I came from, kampung perhaps. Yeah I did came from a kampung, but i grew with dignity, love and were taught well. U want me to respect u, then u gotta earn it. U think as long as u get it right eventually, it is fine. But after working for so so long that u r so proud of, don't u think getting it right the first time is the right way instead?? Think abt it.

U love the attention from the management. But u didn't realise u couldn't even get a piece of work done. U talked like u were from Perth, with the accent whenever u r on the phone with other people.

I'm sorry that I'm such a perfectionist to u, but maybe cos u r not even close to that. Period. U r driving me nuts and I have reached my maximum point of tolerance with u.

I don't intend to let u spoil my weekend.

12.05.2011–Longan’s Big Day!

Finally the big day arrived. All were set! The groom (my bro) and his buddies made their way to face their worst nightmare, handling the sistas at the bride’s place. Games were played, girls got to punish those they hate or fancy … then the morning ceremony ended at my place in Bengkurong! Daddy and Mummy got another daughter now! I have a sister-in-law now.. and another house mate!

<3 One happy ending <3

My 1st Charity Run

Just yesterday, I participated in the SCB Run, the race that cares.

Its for Standard Chartered’s Seeing is Believing project to raise funds to help those visually impaired ones in education and other aspects of life.

 

I ran the 5km and I just felt so good! My legs were pretty sore after that.. and are still sore right now! That will be my first and wont be my last, that’s for sure!

Last weekend. Queen’s Bday!

Dinner at Capers <3

Tour to Kg Ayer.

Bday dinner again at home. Steamboat!

Bubbles..

Family time!

My bitchy side!

 

Sorry, I just have to share this with you all.. My bitchy side.

 

“I think you should put some staffs who are able to communicate at your counter! your staffs had no idea what I was talking about when I called!”

 

Manager kept quiet. “Sorry mum, Ill go to the lobby lounge and check for you.”

ten minutes later..

 

“Mum, your order is not in the list”, Manager said.

“I called up twice. Once to order the cake and 2nd time to amend my order. How is that possible?”, I was getting frustrated already.

 

“Mum, Ill go lobby lounge to grab a cake for you!”

 

ten minutes later..

 

“I found your cake! Its under PEN! (seriously, PEN?), but mum, still have wordings!”, manager explained.

 

“ But I called and amended my order. I want a plain cheese cake, no wordings! I don’t want the wordings.. Can you get me a new one?”, I said with that lin-si face.

 

Mummy and Jie said I was being very cruel. Initially, the cake was for advanced father’s day but dad went back offshore earlier. Hence,  I can actually accept the cake with the wordings but I insisted I want a plain cake! Why should I be treated with this kind of service when I paid for their membership. VIP, my ass!

 

Despite that, I had a great time at empire.First weekend at Empire with the family.

 

Cycling at 4pm wasn’t that bad! although I nearly got burnt!

 

yes, That is just one of my ke-zillions bitchy stories.. You better not mess with me! hmpf!

PMS-ing now bah…

Tips for your next INTERVIEW!

 

1. Do not be late! be there earlier so you can look around and study the environment first. let your mind get used to the new environment and prepare yourself for the worst.

 

2. Better munch on something before you go for the interview especially if you’re asked to be there at 8am! the last thing you want to happen is the interviewer hearing your stomach grrroooorrrrrr!!!

 

3. Do your homework! Learn abt the company thru their website or thru friends. Know who is in charge; chairman, managing Director, his ex position, etc. Worst thing that could happen is you demoting him in front of him. Eg. Vice Chancellor demoted to Deputy Vice Chancellor, being said with that look on your face, like my confident look.

 

4. You got to be confident. Just talk and talk about your work experiences.. have no fear. Your honesty might just get you a job.

 

5. Be prepared with questions like your strengths and weaknesses, qualities which made you think you’re the right candidate for the job!if you don’t know yourself, try google it. Google has loads of answers. TRUST ME on that! (eheeemm… im still self-exploring!)

 

6. Dress to impress! wear your best outfit and make an entrance. The interviewer might have went through so many candidates and maybe your best image will help them remember you!

 

7. Mind your body language. Do not lean towards the chair and start moving around! tats just stupid! Mind your hand gestures as well.

 

8. Most importantly, confidence! Be confident, even if you don’t know the answer. Just say whatever that comes to ur mind (well, you got to filter a bit). they would prefer someone who try to sell himself/herself rather than someone who don’t even bother trying!

 

9. Never ask the interview to comment on how you performed earlier during the interview. That’s just cocky!

 

10. Last but not least, Im not a person you should refer to for this tips cos ive just committed some mistakes which I shouldn’t have!

Our first reunion after 20 years!

You see, I was a bit nervous when the day was approaching. After 20 years, we finally gonna meet again! My cousins from Canada were back here for Lung’s wedding! Before they arrived, I was thinking how things gonna be.. whether they will be snobbish or quiet.. or… anything!

I guess cousins are cousins afterall! We clicked instantly.. we shared stories, talked about life.. opportunities..LOVE.. family.. It was all good!

*Mother’s Day Celebration at TK*

At first, I had a hard time thinking of the things that we can do in brunei. LOL. yes, brunei is boring! So our first stop, Tamu Kianggeh!

Followed by the fried Kueh tiaw at De Most, Jerudong Beach, Ayamku, Cottage Restaurant, East Wood Valley, Empire,Tamu Selera, Miri Beach & our homes!

It was great to have you guys back here! And im looking forward to our trip to Canada in 2013! <3
