Bothered..

Something's bothering me and I don't think I will feel better without spitting it out so here I am.. Typing this entry in the office. Found out something last nite and although I promised somebody not to tell, I can't help feeling disgusted and I really need to let it out. Names will be concealed. I've always felt that as friends, we should not fight for other people's love. Of coz I don't mean myself here. A close guy friend of mine likes a gal for very long and all of us know it. The gal recently broke up and another guy (who is also part of the group of friends) is now together with this gal. I feel totally disgusted at how some guys can do this.. Going after another girl that your friend likes.. To me, it's not a good thing to do. I don't know.. Maybe it's just me.. Like what someone said.. Even if you like that person, it doesn't mean that the person will like you back so it's not surprising that she's with another guy. I've gone...

Dream Come True?

Finally received my letter stating that I have been promoted to Assistant Manager Level 2. Have also gotten my pay increment and my bonus. Things that I've been waiting for have finally come.. I should be happy.. But somehow, my mood is pretty down. Sighz.. Have been sick since last week. Came down with viral infection and I've been coughing away today. Not feeling fantastic coz I'm coughing so hard that I feel like puking and my tummy feels weird. Sucky feeling.. Such a slow and mundane day at work.. I'd rather be at home sleeping. Haha. Is that the way someone who has just been promoted should feel? Hmmz.. Maybe I'm just sick.. Received news last week that I will be posted to Shanghai for 2 months to provide training to the people there. Was excited to go initially but now, I think I can't bear to leave Tom for so long. Haha. Is it really long? Sighz.. Never felt like this before.. He makes me love him too much. Haha. Had Council gathering at Abel's house ...

Glutton

Work has been ok for me since the start of 2007. Been working latest til 10pm I think but that's still ok coz most days I tend to try and leave earlier. My whole dept on the whole has been managing to leave office at 6-7pm. Only me.. I'm always the last to leave at about 8pm. Sighz.. Wonder why. And my workload is about to increase as I learn more stuff from my boss. No complaints though since I really wanna learn more as well. So.. Just have to slog harder than the rest and make it all worthwhile in the end. :) Had my post-Christmas and post-New Year dept dinner last Saturday (06/01) at Oriental Hotel "The Melt" restaurant. The buffet spread was quite nice, especially the oysters and sashimi! They were really fresh and the desserts were fantastic! Some of us went for drinks at Esplanade after the dinner and sat around chatting. My boss joined us and we really had a fun girls' night out (Note: My whole dept is all girls!). But after that night, we realised that th...

Happy Birthday To Me (Continued)

Was at Mount Faber for my birthday dinner and countdown party to the new year. Tom and I had dinner at Faber Point where there was a live band performing. I dedicated a song for my own birthday and they sang a very nice version of "Happy Birthday" to me. After which, I also dedicated Selina's "Dreaming of You" for Tom and my 3 years anniversary on 25th Dec. It was a beautiful moment and the memories will remain forever. Tom gave me a Solvil Et Titus watch for my birthday! :p Met up with Ann, Peggy and MZ for countdown party and cable car ride. Was nice but we mised part of the fireworks as we misgauged the timing of the cable car ride. Saw the flares from the ships as well too. Got to experience snow as well but they were just foam that smells really nice. Haha. Wasn't too bad a countdown party except for the fact that there were inconsiderate motorcyclists who rode on the pavement just to get out of the jam. Can't believe that there are such rude and id...

Happy Birthday To Me!

31 Dec 2006: Here I am.. Stuck in my office on my birthday with the system being down!! God.. Playing tricks on me aye? Slept at 4.30am this morning and had to drag my butt off my ever so comfortable bed at 8.30am just to rush to office to finish my work and yet.. Sighz.. But amazingly, I'm not that tired so it's still alright. Got my forever needed good friend beside me every morning - COFFEE!! Haha. Yeah.. I'm such an addict that I get headaches at times when I'm too tired. :p It's been a great week for me. Met up with Eugene on Wednesday for dinner after we lost touch and haven't met up since we graduated from college which was 6 years ago. Chatted and caught up on our lives after such a long time. :) System's up.. Gotta work.. Continue later. 02 Jan 2007: Finally back to blogging. Went for dinner with Ow after work on Thursday night (28 Dec) which was ok. Haven't really eaten with him before. He's not the gentlemanly type but I didn't tell hi...

Merry Christmas 2006!

December is my favourite month coz (1) it's Tom's bday, (2) it's Xmas, (3) it's our anniversary and most importantly (4) it's MY BDAY! Haha. I know some people do not like their bdays but I like mine. I don't usually organise dinners or bday party celebrations coz honestly, I'm too lazy to do it. :p But somehow, once it's nearing the date of my bday, I start getting excited about it like a small girl. :) This year, I'll be in the office alone on the actual day of my bday coz stupid private banking side forced somebody from my team to be back for year end adjustments and that chosen person is me. Sighz.. No choice coz I'm the only one who knows how to do everything in my team, both record management stuff and reconciliation stuff. So, on my bday, I'll be back in office at 9am til the time I can finish my work. How sad.. Haha. Been meeting up with friends recently. The most surprising one being Winston, my brother from JC. It's been years s...

Touched..

Been busy with work the whole week as both Carol & Joyce were on leave. Worst part was that I was down with flu.. AGAIN! Sucks.. Ever since I changed my seat in office, I've been coming down with flu every 2 months or so. So shitty. :( Anyway, I'm recovering now so it's ok. I was really touched on Wednesday night when my flu was at the worst stage. Why? Coz Ting and Agnes actually bought dinner for me at 8pm, accompanied me to eat and waited for me to finish my work when they could have gone home already. And I worked til 10pm that night which means that they did nothing in the office for 2 whole hours! It's enough to make me feel really really touched. Agnes even gave me 2 massages that day coz I was so tired and so sick. Thanks dear! Will never forget that night. Honestly, I'm blessed to have to such a good bunch of colleagues and friends. If I were to ever leave this company, I wonder if I can still find such caring people as colleagues. Though we may be crap...
