Happy 57th Bday Mummy!

It's been a rather moody week. Things weren't as rosy as I thought but then again, I have only been there for 6 months. Can't expect too much, can I? But then again, I think it was the other news that made me more moody. I guess, it's destined that I can't have a good manager for long. Nothing lasts forever eh? I'll jus have to stick it out for now I guess. Meanwhile, I've never been more hardworking than now I think. I've been studying during lunch time or whatever free time I have at work so that I can achieve my dream faster. Not gonna sit there and take it easy anymore. But wild random thoughts keep causing my thoughts to stray. So I've burnt my studying/learning CD and put it into my phone. Full speed ahead now! Borrowed 2 good books from my trader. Started on 1 for now. Interesting reads about the market and how it collapsed previously. Things that will be beneficial. Yes, I'm going for it! Working hard, moving fast. Stopped playing games a...

Jakarta 14-16 Jan 2011

On the way home, I stopped for the old school ice cream from the motorbike seller. Bread with peppermint ice cream flavor. Was feeling a little down after talking to 1 of my traders. Think his depression spread to me or something. :( But the ice cream did help~! :) Another office party tomorrow but guess I'm gonna give it a miss this time since most of the guys on my team aren't gonna be there. Anyway, I had a great weekend in Jakarta visiting Mahesh, Krupa and baby Dev!! Dev is soooo adorable with huge eyes, super long eyelashes and a smile that melted my heart! He doesn't cry much and he's not even afraid of strangers! Love carrying him around and he was the only reason why I dragged myself out of bed every morning in Jakarta! Right after I finish washing up, I'll run out to carry him and play with him! :p Still waiting for Mahesh to send me the group photos that we took together. ^.^ Had dinner with Rick who came from HK on Mon nite. Went for Korean food and we d...

Er Mei Pai

I think u guys who read my blog will realise that I've been blogging quite a lot recently. Oh well, that's what happens when I have my own laptop and I knock off early nowadays. :) If u're bored of my ramblings, pls take a break. Hahaha. Had a very enjoyable gathering with my Er Mei Pai sisters (plus Winston) last nite at Sizzler. I really miss this group of people whom I worked closely with for 2 years when I 1st joined this company. 15-18 hour days were the norm for me then. Much as I suffered the wrath of my supervisor who hated me coz she always felt that I was a threat to her position, the rest of the girls were always there to back me up, support and encourage me. Those were the days when I never complained I was tired, where I went back to work willingly when I was still on hospitalisation leave. I miss the good old days. I do.. Sigh.. Time flies and we are all in different departments now. Meeting up is such a difficult thing to do now as it's hard to coordinate...

Great 1st week of 2011!

Had a very busy week last week so I decided to have a more relaxed week this week. :) Weekend was especially great. Let's start with Thurs drinks - We had a great nite of drinking, eating chicken wings & peanuts and of coz, bitching, gossiping and laughing! Jean came down and joined my bunch of ex-colleagues and I think everyone enjoyed her company as well. Seriously awesome nite that though I slept at 1am and had to wake up at 5.30am the next morning for work, it was without any complaints nor grouchy-ness in me. :p Looking forward to the next gathering!!! Fri was supposedly a quiet nite for Eeyore and I but Jean wasn't feeling very happy so we had a gathering at the house of SSS (I need a shorter name for Sid & Stef's house). Helped Stef with the marination sauces, salad sauces and honestly learnt a lot about cooking and how a real kitchen/house looks like. Mine is.. definitely not up to standard. Will work hard to get there some day. Stayed til 2am and was sooo t...

This song is stuck in my head - Listening to it brings back certain memories..

Baby Kayden

Think I forgot to mention in my previous post - Thanks to my back office in Australia who did a wonderful bday email for me! :) And to Agnes for the wonderful lunch treat! :p Jus came home from Lynnie's place. Oh my god! Baby Kayden is sooo adorable!! Was looking at him while he slept and he has soooo many facial expressions even when sleeping! His smile simply melts my heart!! But as always, playing with other people's babies are fun. When it comes to giving birth to 1 of my own, it will have to wait. Hahaha. Anyway, I've told Lynnie that I'll pop by her place every week once or every alternate week once. Need to bond with the new baby. :D By the way, I am so in love with my new "baby" that I love turning it on the minute I reach home. Beautiful~!

Today's the 1st working day of 2011 and it's also my 1st post for 2011! :) My bday came and went in a flash. I'm truly blessed with a bunch of really wonderful people whom I wanna thank! Not going to post much photos here since they are mostly on Facebook. 1) My group of uni girl friends aka bellas who have been amazing all these years! Of coz, I'll have to include the hubby and the fiancee as well~! Thanks for being great friends throughout the years, for standing by me, for all the fun and laughter, and for sharing my sadness with me. Thanks Jean & Dilun, Stef & Sid, Anne & Von!! For the surprise bday cake, for the singing at the restaurant that I'll never ever forget! ^.^ 2) Shirleen - My insurance agent who ordered a bear with 3 roses to be delivered to my office. Unexpected and totally incredible when I tell others that it's from an insurance agent. 3) Bee for buying me a present every year, without fail. Her friendship has amazed me tremendousl...
