I enjoyed assisting in photoshoot sessions. I get to see those managers and even partners although they definitely won't take notice of me.

I was chatting with the photographer who founded this company. He and his other partners each received 6-figure bonus every year. O.M.G Im so tempted to set up my own business. He works for his interests and is earning big bucks. My interests are only music and movies. Hm...

Karen had just left our company on last thursday. *sob* Karen and I were in the same group and we can gossip about anyone in the office! Now she's no longer in the office, and I feel quite out of place at 32nd level, and most importantly, I don't quite look forward to lunch time anymore. Somehow I feel much lonely and without any support in my group, but I'll be strong. I doubt I can really turn to another person in my grp like I did to Karen. I wish her all the best in whatever things she is going to do and I believe she'll succeed someday, even better than us who choose to remain in the company.

First time I experienced peer pressure from someone who has quitted. Can't imagine those seniors whose colleagues had all left.

We had a farewell dinner for her, but I'm sure Karen will still come find us very often hahahaha. I FORGOT TO TAKE PICTURES WITH HER!!!!

My battery team AIC talked to me about my performance. I was trying to forget the entire battery engagement and then I had to painfully talk about what I feel abt the engagement. So why do I have so much of difficulties in doing it while all my colleagues did it with ease? Maybe Im unlucky with such a client. Maybe due to poor planning since its my first time doing the entire subsi on my own. Maybe I'm just incompetent.

I think i have those 'I am lost and I need help' face. During auditing period, my battery team was telling me things I should or how to ask the client questions. Thanks to them for all their guidance, but sometimes they overdo it and make me feel dumb.

Through this engagement, I realise i am a very quiet person in nature and I appreciate jokes rather differently from others.

I hope i can really just forget about this entire engagement. I shall treat this as a lesson to be learnt and thats it. Best is they can even pull me out of this job next year so that I dont need to go back to that depressing building.

I'm slipping into a semi-retiring state.

I played Wii and i don't quite like it. Shall not buy it. I still think my Sega 16 Bit is the best ever game set hahahaha..

My face, tummy and overall are evidence of late-night roti prata, bubble tea, fast-food dinner during engagement, zero exercise thanks to cabs. I should start gym-ing again and I stupidly just gave away 2 gym pass to my colleague. HAHAHAHAHA... Anyone interetsed??

IM VERY LOOKING FORWARD TO THE KL AND GENTING TRIP. Can't believe that the genting trip is making me so excited. -_-

Was finding this a capalla song for some time and finally found it. I used to watch this anime, Mojacko, on every saturday when I was quite young.



和世界面对面 (宇宙小毛球片尾曲)
银河是宇宙的大街
街上有繁星点点
希望是挡雨的屋檐
让梦看见蓝天

辛苦的泪水最宝贝
一滴换一种体会
心和心反复的排练
好戏正要上演

和世界面对面
是爱和信念
每一步踏得更坚决
一路上你我走在同一边

冷漠的人群是阴天
热情的心是晴天
愉快的天色是蓝天
我站在你身边

和世界面对面
精彩的岁月
布满了喜悦和汗水
天和地永远站在同一边

I dreamt that someone was asking me for new batteries, so I opened my drawer to find some new AA batteries. I found Energizer batteries but the size was not right, so i continued finding and I SAW SOME BATTERIES IN GREEN AND YELLOW PACKAGING. Darn! Can't believe I even dreamt of batteries. ARGH.

The NTU interns look so young, innocent and inexperience. They gave the exact same expressions when I first met those freshmen during hall orientation camp. I feel like a big jie jie although Im just 2 yrs older than the girls and even as old as the guys. Each time I see the interns coming in I feel so happy, because they are here to share our workload muahahaha.

Im going to enjoy being in office for the next few wks and I love it.

There are some people whom u really wish to bump into again, but you just don't get to meet them. Some people whom u don't miss them, yet you keep meeting them. And some people whom you haven't met for years, and suddenly you keep bumping into them.

Glad that my friend is doing fine all these years, after so long since we last met. =)

Yes I went for the Battery team dinner at MOF. I feel it was quite an awkward dinner with me around, but its still a fun time and most importantly, its free!!!! SOrry im such a cheapo. Im saving $$ for my trips. Is my team stalking my blog????

I still don't like those batteries with the green and yellow packaging.

I finally met Yeo yeo. She looks the same except a little thinner from eating all the healthy green food cooked in the most healthy way, the way Karen and I cooked in London becos we were lazy. She learnt to speak Mandarin with Msian accent. Strangely, Jean and I, who have been in Singapore all the while, can also speak Mandarin with Msian accent because many of my colleagues are Msians. Next time we shall go Msia and bargain with the stall owners with Msian accent!

This wk I was helping out at the photoshoot sessions for the bosses. I always admire artists and photographers who perform artistics judgments because it is never quite a subject that can be learned like Maths or Science. In these photoshoot sessions, the bosses will need to pretend reading newspapers, drinking coffee, or talking to someone else for better photo effects. The photographers almost wanted me to converse with the bosses so that they can really talk. Luckily there was a manager there helping me out with this task.

I love Amoy Street market more than any other food stalls in CBD area.

30th May - 2 June (KL & Genting trip) =) =)

tired. update more tmr.

Should I go for the Battery engagement team's dinner tmr???????????????????? Somehow I can feel that the team doesn't like me much and my heart is not with them. But if I don't go, then I appear even more unfriendly. ARGH HoWwwwwwwww?????????????????????

Heard that the promotion list is out. Hm.....

I think I need to pray at temple on one of these days. Downright suay today. Alarm clock not working and I only woke up at 8.30am, not assigned to any job for the whole and then kena dispatch during lunch time. Tmr still have to go back to office first before i can take toil (my RMT says so i dunno why).

I really enjoyed the long weekends. I played so hard for the past 3 days with no worries about work.

Wolverine has disappointed me. I think I don't like to watch supernatural powers because they are so fake to me. 'Taken', surprisingly turned out to be better than 'Wolverine'.

Kudos to Cedar B div table tennis team. Heard that they have won against rgs for championship. Many of us thought that Yr 2001 would be our one and only championship. History has repeated itself again 8 years later. We individually are not stronger than our opponents, but when unite as a team we are able to perform miracles. To think that our Yr 2001 championship was won by my team with many of them only started learning table tennis in Sec 1. Gd job girls!

Im glad that the table tennis show on tv has ended. That show sucks much. They look more like playing badminton to me. I saw some of my friends acting in that show as their opponents. Why they nvr jio me to go act with them?

My violin is here muahahaha.......

I miss everyone. Come join me in office and we'll have loads of fun in office and at Amoy.

Yeo is back!! =) =)

I think im the suay-est of all. No one has been pulled into so many engagements and then kena released for so many times because the clients are not ready. ARGH.

My previous post was too depressing so i removed it. Im just so glad i have sort of ended this engagement being my most unbearable engagement of all. My feelings are beyond words. But now i develop a foebia for batteries. Each time I see batteries, they will remind me of my clients and that disgusting place.

I think today marks the end of my peak period. HOORAY!!!

The swine flu sounds scary. Im afraid it may affect my HK trip and genting trip.

Im not going to care about appraisals and unassigned hours anymore. Heck it even if im gonna be unassigned for the next 1 month. This company is driving me nuts.

Yeo yeo is coming back this sunday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She says she wanna see how much we have aged. Hahaha ok i admit I age quite a bit.

Enjoy your weekends!!! Ok i'll update again on sat.
