Shopping!!

Today was a cold cold day. Not a very good day to go CNY shopping. Just applied Deep Heat on both my arms.. In pain due to carrying heavy bags of shopping stuff.. Well, I told Beeie that this spree will be the last of the year.. U see, he's helping me to clear my shopping debts.. Keke..

Anyway, starting from tomorrow, I'm going to so miss my shopping spree..

Wonder why is the weather so unpredictable recently. It's raining the whole day even till now, 3am!! Good for night but not so good for noon if you need to travel. You wouldn't wanna get caught in the rain.

Oh!! I saw Zann today! She was like grabbing my shopping bags and I was thinking which annoying person could have grabbed my bags that harsh.. I almost turn around and curse when I saw her.. Haha.. Straight away I turned into a scaredy cat.. Only she'll know why.. Hohohohoho..

Anyway, bought red undergarments and night gowns, some new dresses and 3 pairs of shoes for CNY. Also bought a shirt and polo tees for Beeie's CNY cum Valentine gift. Beeie's CNY clothes are always from me cos he seldom buy clothes on his own..

Oh oh!! I also found out the actual price for Omega Ladymatic. Deville.. Sad lah.. It's far far far far from my expectation..

I thought it'll be cheaper than the Rolex, who knows it's so much more loh!! Like triple fold??!! Zzz.. Think the most expensive watch which I'll get will still be Tag..

Actual Price written by sales person:








And today, I felt I'm slightly back to my 'chioness' keke.. Slightly lah.. Not like last time.. At least now I dare camwhore again.. Though deleted away cos alot not nice.. At least better than zero lah!!





Also wanna post these pics afew days ago but didn't have time. It's actually handphone decorated by my colleague using soft clay and crystals. She's very artistic lah!! Sweet loh!!













Yap!! She's the 1 in the pic and that's her phone.. Chio right? Both the phone n the person.. Keke.. Interested to deco your phone that way, let me know. She does freelance too. You will get discount definitely!!!

Shall stop here.. In agony now.. Arms damn painful!!! N later in the morning still need to work.. Boring..

Chen Wei-Yih, Only & Only's Wedding

Chen Wei-yih has finally planned the wedding day which she has been dreaming about since she was a little girl.

On 6 Nov 2010, the Taiwanese office worker donned a floor-length white gown and flowing veil, carry a fragrant bouquet and enjoy a gourmet meal with 30 of her closest friends and family members.

Except.. there will be no Prince Charming for the 30 years old bride. In an effort to defy the traditional Asian perception of single, independent women as failures, Chen says she will marry herself.

Chen's defiant act has received praises, mostly from Asian women on her Facebook page.

After her lavish "nuptials", Chen plans to embark on a solo honeymoon to Australia.

View the Facebook page for Chen's wedding, including photos here.

Moulding the Future of the Nation

All her life.. It's like a dream job.. A career, a profession of high integrity. A passion that can spread the language of love to the future of the nation. A dream of helping the nation in moulding the future and nurturing each individual.

Since young, she was told that it was the perfect profession. From all the drama series which she has watched, they were forever dedicated. They were all able to go the extra mile to help the little ones. In the end, in exchange of the effort and hard work put in, a feeling of satisfaction. By looking at how the young have grown over the years and how they become significant individuals, really meant a great deal to them. With that, they have the strength to help them press on and handle the daily challenges with pride.

In the end, all these are just unrealistic portrayal of the directors or scriptwriters. It is not the case in reality. Maybe that's why there's this Chinese saying, "现实是残忍的". Meaning, the reality is cruel.

In order to make this dream come true, it goes a long way. She has to go through a minimum of 13 years of education in local primary, secondary and tertiary level. Then, she needs to go through a minimum of 2 years in training. After the training, she has to go under probation for a year. If she fails to do so, she has a lump sum of money to pay off due to a 3 years bond. After the probation, she has to work her ass off so that she does not get a D grade for her appraisal.

Oh, and not to mention that "work" is not just her sole responsibility. This involves many roles and other job titles. Quoting from a friend's blog, the work of this so-called "professional" (it's "so-called" cos the society does not see her as a professional. They feel that nobody is indispensable. Anyone, so long as they hold a certain qualification can do all that of her job.) is/are as follow:

Mother
Nanny
Maid
Researcher
Presenter
Actor
Clown
Customer service operator
Slave
Counsellor
Display Artist
Artist
Policeman
Security guards
Dart board
Magazine editor
Designer
Spoil spot
Punching bag
Standing Mannequin
Entertainer
Events coordinator
Receptionist
Flower vase
Cleaner
Ushers

The list goes on and on. Yet, there're people who still thinks that her job is easy and relaxing, having to be able to enjoy long breaks which others don't get. Talking about the breaks, that's just a makeup for the time lost during work days. A typical work day can last a total of more than 10 hours! That includes missing the important life events, a lost in family life, a neglect of friendship bonding, a lack of communication hours with the loved ones,etc...

During these 7 years of dedication, her only goal in life was just to be able to help and care for the young ones. She is not interested in promotion, getting As during appraisal, recognition, etc... She sacrifices her time, money, has to be an all-time role-model, not being able to keep up with trends when it comes to attire... All these, just for the sake of the little ones.

In return, all she gets is a system of craps. A system that states, if she does not perform above her daily responsibilities, she gets a D grade and that in turn can lead to the loss of her dream. A system that says no "extra miles" to be done on Saturdays, holidays, 12 p.m. to 12.45 p.m. daily (even when she's missing her lunch break to just go the extra mile)... A system that states no visiting to little ones' homes to give them extra help. A system that says that if the little ones do not perform, she in turns gets a lower grade during appraisal which in turn leads to mark the end of her dream again. It's like a vicious cycle.

No wonder more and more of those in the same shoes as hers are leaving and giving up their passion. It's not a loss of passion. It's a loss of true, sincere, dedicated beings due to the SYSTEM!

My friends know me so well!

I think they know if they don't do something for me on my birthday, I'm going to nag at them for the whole year.

Fiona and Eugene were one of them. I thought that they had forgotten cos none of them SMS me anything on the actual day.

Yesterday when I went to their daughters' birthday, I started nagging already. Who knows, they surprised me with a tiny cake. My fav durian cake from Emi! So sweet.. Sang a song for me too.. Oorrghh..

Ok lah.. Though belated, I'm still quite touch.. Yap.. Like what Eugene says, it's the thought that counts! ;) thank you!!

Happy Birthday To Me!!

When I thought I was forgotten, it seems I was still cared for by many thoughtful friends..

First was Steven who SMS me on 5th thinking it was 6th..

Then Beeie at midnight..

Then it was Popo at midnight as well..

Fourth was Mimi at midnight too.. Right after Popo..

Later in the morning, a bunch of SMS came in, not sure who 1st.. Includes KBH, Ting, Godbro, CK and a few other friends.

In the afternoon at work, I thought my colleagues had forgotten. But I was surprised they did not!! They even bought a cake for me!! It was yummy!! And I was really happy!!

The little ones also remembered my birthday!! I was quite surprised how did they get to know.. Apparently they had their "ways".. Haha

I also received birthday wishes from my mum, Sis n bro too.. My bro was so sweet.. He even sang me a birthday song in my voicemail.. Gee..
ヾ(@⌒ー⌒@)ノ

Then after that, I received a SMS from Steven again.. He's so funny.. Wish me happy birthday again.. Haha..

Later in the evening, went to Buckaroo with Beeie.. I'm on diet so I can't eat much.. I ate the buffalo wings at level 3!! Though I ate only 1.5 (can't finish them cos too full), it was damn shiok!!

My presents from Beeie:

A bouquet of flowers sent to my office.. (so sweet)

A princess pearl necklace from Soo Kee.. (which I really like..)

Too lazy to take and post photos nowadays.. Haha..

Yap, not a bad birthday after all!! Thank you to Beeie, Popo, Mimi, Ting, KBH, Da Ge, CK, Steven, Mervy, YS, Jac, Momo, Sis, Bro, the little ones.. (排名不分先后.. I hope I didn't miss out anyone.. If I did I'm sorry.. Older by 1 year, lack of memory.. Hohohoho.. (^O^))

Only thing is -- I grew older again.. Zzz... (T ^ T)

さよなら‼

Cause and Effect

It seems like this is a natural phenomenon. Every thing that happens has a cause and effect. In Chinese, we call it 因果报应..

Recently, I started feeling the effects coming hard on me.

①Effects of over-eating:
This time's dieting is really a hard time for me. Although I was very determined and I did lose 7kg in the 1st month, the second month was horrible. I started eating solid food in the 2nd month (1st month I survived on soup, water and ice cream only) and I only lose 1.5kg.. Zzz.. 1 more week to go and it's the end of the second month. Initially, I lost 3 kg in the 2nd month. But after I started eating a bit of carbo, I gained back 2kg in one day! That's sadness! It's terrible cos I'm still having hunger pangs, dizzy spells, etc.. Due to the lack of food.. It's sad cos I'm still 7.5kg away from my original weight! Sigh.. Why is it that growing fat is so much easier?!

②Effects of my bad habits:
Those who know me will know my bad habits. One of them being -- lateness. Recently, I started to have this feeling that "N1" is starting to dislike me. Maybe cos I'm always late? I don't really know.. Maybe cos of my other bad habits too? I spoke to her yesterday and started to have a feeling that it's not the same anymore. It's just an intuition. Probably it's time to leave. Leave for further studies.. She did tell me it'll be difficult for me to go back to the same school for further studies due to some reason. "Work" reasons.. Well, if that's difficult, I shall go back full-time studies in other areas and back to training again then work again? But that will go a long way cos I can't take leave, I have to resign, rejoin, retrain and restart my service.. I can also choose to go overseas.. But that's too ex.. Last resort is to take part-time courses which I don't think I can cope.. I wonder why is it so difficult.. Yet we are encouraged to upgrade ourselves.. Sigh..

③Effects on playing games for hours:
When I say hours.. It's really long.. I played Plants vs. Zombies for 10hrs during the holidays!! Now, super tired.. (cos I was still playing it last night after a full day's work) with dark eye rings (which I don't use to have..) Zzz.. Oh! Plus headache too..

④Effects of growing old:
Growing old is not really a cause but it does have it's unfavorable effects.. Special occasions are not so special anymore cos we had too much of those. Like Christmas and New Year.. It's like nothing special or to be happy about.. I spent both eves playing mj all night. There's always so many people around for celebration and everywhere is so packed nowadays I don't even wanna go anywhere at all.. CNY too. Nothing special. Only good thing is I get to stay at home and not go to work. Oh! It's also an indication of spending money too.. For the kids.. Spent more than 500 bucks for Christmas presents and 300 bucks for Ang Bao in 2010..

Summary: think twice before acting.. You may never know what are the effects that you'll experience later on..
