借我一辈子 - Gary Chaw

(借你一辈子 借你我剩下的日子 答应过你的那些事
请你让我去证实 用你左手的无名指)

借你我肩膀 借你温暖
借你美好的时光
借你胸膛 借你疯狂
借你放肆的飞翔

想不想永远留在这些 不用管永远到底有多长
我知道生命太短 所以不要犹豫了 如果你和我一样
时间就像陀螺般旋转 差点把我们的爱打乱
我不要再这样 我不要再流浪 我真的这么想
这一次我看见了生命的答案 就藏在你身上
让我完整的一半 最甜蜜的负担

借你一辈子 借你我剩下的日子
答应过你的那些事 让我去证实 对天使发誓
借我一辈子 借我你所有的日子
写下两个人的故事 用你左手的无名指

时间像陀螺般旋转 差点把我们的爱打乱
我不要再这样 真的不要再流浪 我真的这么想
这一次我看见了生命的答案
就藏在你身上让我完整的一半 最甜蜜的负担

借你一辈子 借你我剩下的日子
答应过你的那些事 让我去证实 对天使发誓
借我一辈子 借我你所有的日子
写下两个人的故事 用你左手的无名指

我们都曾经在爱里迷失方向
以为独自生活就不会受伤不受伤 nononono

我曾经把你错过 我不要把你错过
我认定你一定会是我 (我最美的结果)
你和我 (给我一辈子 给你我剩下的日子)
爱你的那些事 请你让我去证实 (答应过你的那些事 让我对天使发誓)
给我一辈子 我给你一辈子 (给我一辈子 给你我所有的日子)
写下我们所有的故事 (写下两个人的故事)
woo baby woo baby...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
just bought gary's latest album supermarket yesterday.
so the CD is playing in my car and i was sleeping while mr goh was driving
and when i work up.
i heard this song
借你一辈子 借你我剩下的日子
答应过你的那些事 让我去证实 对天使发誓
借我一辈子 借我你所有的日子
写下两个人的故事 用你左手的无名指


and i like it a lot!!!
song by Master Gary himself and Lyrics by 管启源 (a very talented lyrics writer of Malaysia)
like the lyrics too much... love it..
and so sweet...
and if somebody would sing it to me...
i would say...
YES :P

Worth it?

last nite was lingering around in the shopping center before our show starts at 9.40pm
then there was this wedding booth.
so the first thing tell will tell you is
"come have a long, just have a look, never mind"
(yeah there are pulling the string to hook the fish)

"we are having promotion now RM500 discount"
(yeah string is longer... to ensure the fish bite the bate)

"come i'll let you see our sample first then only we discuss on the package."
(yeah if you like our sample.. we can fish you can chop chop you)

then look look look... nothing too attractive..
then see see see nothing very special.
then come to the package discussion

"our package normal price is RM 3580 now we promotion give your RM 3280"
(eh... i tot you are giving RM 500 discount??? WTF.. u try and con me ar?)
"we got a lot of designer dress and you can choose without paying extra regardless it's new or not"
(ya.. ya.. ya.. i don't care yet.. i'm not in d mood to get married.. not in da mood to take wedding photo)

then mr goh told them we will consider
"i'll add this for you... add that for you... add 10 more pose... add this.. add that.."
(sorry not very very attractive)

then mr goh told them he have yet to proposed
"never mind la you make the booking of this then your proposal will be easy"
mr goh went a step further to say proposal ring also i haven get
so the person went speechless
(haha)

so my conclusion is...
i need to fork up 30% up front for something which i'm not certain.. that's why i wont go for it.

i'm jus look-seeing.. and you have ask me to seat down...
so i seat down to listen to what you say lo... you cant force me to enter to something which i'm not into geh ma?

i'm not in the mood of getting married
cos pocket got no money... and most important thing..
i'm not ready ;)

人必自侮而後人侮之

这篇文章是要写给昨天自侮的顾客 (还在想要不要翻成英文)

老人家孟子有云: 人必自侮,而後人侮之
意思就是但凡一個人,必定是自己先有輕慢自己的行為,然後別人才會來侮辱
《孟子》 夫人必自侮,然后人侮之;家必自毁,而后人毁之;国必自伐,而后人伐之

简单的说就是人必先有自取侮辱的行为,然后别人才侮辱他。

昨天发生了让我觉得心疼的事情
为了顾客好的事情
站在她的角度来看变成好像在害她的事情了

因为她是我们的顾客的会计师(可是我质疑她是不是合格的会计,她让我感觉是那种街边或野鸡大学毕业的会计师),而对她有几分尊敬。
她打电话来宣泄她的不满,可是我已经低声下气要讨好她。
还是谈不妥
然后我的高级经理打电话要说服她,她竟然谈到一半一言不合,盖我经理的电话。
而后,因为抱持着以顾客为先的态度,
我们请我们的老板直接打电话和她洽谈
可是她一接到我老板的电话就直接大喊什么又是你们啊?
可是能够当上老板就不是简单的人
老板说服她和我们一起安排见面然后商讨公司税务的问题

可是在我们的心里也暗地里 让我们感觉到她给我们的印象是个
自高自大,不懂装懂,种族主义,不懂尊重自己和别人的人
给她小小的尊敬,她就想爬上我们的头上,可是我们也不是很好欺负的啊
走着瞧吧!

i decided to translate what i write.
this is dedicated to the good client who have self humiliated herself yesterday

the old people "zhuang zi" said : A person must humiliate themselves, than only others will humiliate them
meaning a person must have done something that make others respect that's why they got humiliated.

yesterday something happened which make me feel very heartbroken.
we are trying to do something good for our client
but at her view point we are making her in a difficult position.

since she is the accountant of our client(however i doubt whether she is qualified and not graduate from the "chap ba lang" university) ,and we respect her as our client.
she called and screen at us on her dissatisfaction.
i've lowered my voice and try to please her but we cant come to a conclusion.
then my Senior Manager called her to comfort her, but half way to the telephone conversation she slam the phone.
however as a professional firm, the client are our priority
so we asked we our director to call her
but once she heard that it's is us calling her and she shouted YOU AGAIN??
of course to be our boss. he is not a simple person to handle.
my director has managed to convince her to arrange meet up and then the tax issue of the company.

however from this incident, i just feel that her impression for me is
arrogant,don't know but pretend to know, racist, do not know how to respect herself and others!
give her little respect, but she wanna show much colour to us.
but we are not simple too.
we wait and see how :P
sometimes wonder whether after 50 ++ year malaysia have obtained their has the thinking of people here had changed??

yesterday i got a call from client which had some very bad comment.

comment 1:

I know you all Chinese very good at making money. Your responsibility is to help me to save money is not making me to pay more!!!


comment 2:

I think I can handle the IXX better than handle you all.


comment 3:

you are making my life difficult. I know my responsibility. I'm the person who is in charge of the company's finance. I'm answerable to whatever decision i'm making.


comment 4:

please do not put everything that i've tell you in the letter. who knows what will be happening in the future? you might not be around, i might not be around when the IXX come for audit / investigation


conclusion from the comment of the person

RACIST, STUBBORN, RUDE, PAIN IN THE ASS, BITCHY, DON'T KNOW PRETENDING SHE KNOWS A LOT

BUT i would like to say thank you to her..
cos she give me a good lesson.
good client..
'appreciate' her too much

Fallen of a Legend

this most hit topic in town is Fallen...
Transformer : Revenge of the Fallen

but today is not Transformer is another Fallen
Fallen of a legend -- MJ we have lost you
but my first thinking was it's a relief for him.
and he will get better life at the other world
no more paparazzi
no more -ve news on him

sharing with you some of MJ's quote from my friend

“In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. In a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.”

now the hope for MJ to perform again has gone. he will not come to Malaysia again.
but his songs. All of his songs will always and forever live in our lives.

sharing with you one of the song of my favourite singer - Legend singer who only stay in the world for 50 years:-

Transformer

what is the hit topic of the week?
H1N1?
Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ)?

nah... it's
TRANSFORMER!!!

yeah.. it's on since Monday and i'm fortunate enough to watch it on Wednesday!
somebody told me the story line might be a bit confusing. (so you will go to cinema to watch it again. DL also)

but i guessed the movie is quite ok..
just that you need to hold bits and pieces of the puzzle and link it all together at the end of the story.

and you can read my friend's post on the characters which appeared in the movie.

both thumbs up for the movie and it's definitely a part two movie which is comparable or better than part 1.
so are you expecting Transformer 3?

p/s I think among all the Decepticons the one who is disguised in human form is the most zun of all ;) i guessed you would most likely agreed with me

p/s2 I think this is definately a movie that you should not missed this year. and worth to watch again movie... ;)

p/s3 this movie is PG13 so children under 13 must be accompanied by parent for viewing purposes.

Dejavu

yesterday nite came home and checked whether there are any letters for me
and there is one from A..A... and i thought it was a letter to chase for money...
but it's not...
it's an apology letter from A..A for issuing my cert under wrong stationery.
and they say "we are now reviewing our procedures to ensure this does not happen again"

Déjà vu

something similar happened in Malaysia, apologies from the party that had made the error and to rectify the error within 10 days but what about moving forward?

so what's the moral of the story?
difference between UK way of doing things and Malaysia way of doing thing...
leave it to you to think ok...
not ok to comment to much cos i'm still leaving in the country i'm commenting.

Nagging from my dad

told my dad last nite i'm gonna watch movie tonite
then he started to nag me
the security around the area is not that good!
bad guys come with parang...
they see you just straight parang you!!!
don't go out and come back so late...
don't just because you wanna save money then you
purposely go to watch movie ar..
bla bla bla


ok daddy i'll take good care of myself.
make sure that i'll look carefully before i step out from the car.

Money not Enough

sometimes i wonder why money is not enough
you earn more then you spend more?

now all i hope is salary increment and own self cost cutting.

Time report is my Pain in the ESS

today went to office first thing in the morning what i'm doing?
i spend almost one hour to prepare my time report at ESS

it make me worried...
ai spend so much time for what
not productive
but what to do??

you need to work this out since you need to impressed your boss..

17 again

last friday i watched 17 again...
i’m suppose to write something before somebody does...
and i’m doing a summary about the movie as follows:-

1) Adult movie with the kids and youngster’s idol as the main cast (to attract more yougster + kids and adults have to bring them along cos it’s rater PG13)
2) Enjoying one since you can have some good laugh with it.
3) Something not very good for kids to see.. that’s why PG is required
4) yes.. you only ML if you have true love with the person
5) gals need to appreciate themselves in order for others to appreciate you
6) if you have the chance to re-run your life again… you would eventually discover that the choice that you have made at that point of time is the best choice that you can have at that point of time

A(H1N1)

the decease just get worst
with more people who got infected coming back from US, Melbourne, Philippines..
i wonder when will Malaysia be clear of A H1N1

and now this school have to close down for one week cos the decease is spreading.
but i would think it is the responsibility of one to quarantine themselves so that it would not spread so drastically and eventually went out of control.

have you realised those people who are coming back all are taking Air Azis X?
something to ponder and consider rite?
i pray...
pray for the decease to go away soon
hope that Malaysia would be declared free of A H1N1 by end of the month!

RM 10

can you buy filling and satisfying lunch for RM10 for 2?
with the current economic situation?
yes? no?

today we just had an filling yet satisfying lunch
char koey tiao mee (big RM 4.50)
poh piah + carrot cake + curry puff (one each)(RM 3.30)
nice barli water X 2 (RM 2.00)
we got a 20sen change

good food
satisfying and nice service
i wouldn't mind to go again for another and another trip ;)

Lily's kitchen @ Penang

during our recent visit to penang.. my dad bring us to makan-makan at Lily's kitchen
which serves a lot of home cooked food and not served with a lot of mock meat but the most important thing is there is a lot of nice penang available food
so we order some of the simple dish:-


potato leaves very nicely cooked


steamed Tofu with abalone mushroom nice and juicy


Penang style food - perut ikan?? chun-man


Penang style food - otak-otak.

not expensive and filling dinner ;)

Sushi Buffet Lunch

this afternoon went for a sushi buffet lunch.
cos it's my dad b'day 2moro and it's 'papa' day 2moro.

the Buffet is not as good as what i expected but
i do like like mango roll which is wrap in the popiah skin.

this reminds me about the very nice vegetarian all you can eat buffet in taiwan
sashimi
various sushi
some raw vege
fried 'shui jiao'
yummy...
makes me think a lot when i wanna go taiwan... :P

din tried any good vegetarian sushi in Malaysia..
but looking forward to one.. which mr driver going to take me there
it's somewhere in Puchong...

Line Up

when you are in the school
we have learned to line up
for 6 + 5 + 2 (if you go for two years kindergarden)

but somehow i realised there are people who do not know how to line up
especially in the toilet
i know you might be urgent
but please respect people in front of you
the lining up in the toilet should be first come first serve as well rite?

i do not understand this kind of mentality
so.. how to we improve ourselves to be comparable with others?

Getting Married?

saw a lot of people getting married this year.
a lot of red bomb here and there
if you didn't received red bomb also you can see people getting married with their photo on FB, Friendster and stuff

but if you ask how about myself..
earlier this year i would very definitely tell you that next year
but now i'm not too confirmed.
maybe it's not next year.
maybe two or three more years down the road.

i'm not too confirm and i'm not too sure about this issue.

带坏小孩子

last nite we went for movie
brought my cousin out and bring them back after 12

i think never bring them back so late?
haha...

kids should stay at home and went to bed sharp sharp 10pm?
even they went to bed at 10pm
but after you say good nite to them would you know what are they doing?
won't they be talking on their HP, smsing?
you would not know.

so.. sometimes have to let them know it's ok to go home late.
but you need to let your parents know where you are and who you are with.

FB hit activity

Do you FB?
Have you FB?

if you are FBing...
what is your favourite activity?

besides participating and creating various type of quiz to test whether you understand the your friend.
the most popular game is My Farm
go steal your friend's vege and fruit
at the same time also help them to kill the weed and worm
so...

just simplified...
it's a way to help you to kill time ;)

A Gen Y’s message to CEOs (Part III)

Your cheat sheet to the millennials

• Consistency gets stale. They want mobility throughout their career lifetime, preferably involving overseas stints.

• Job-hopping is overrated. Debunking the portfolio careers myth, our Gen Y will remain loyal to their employer – as long as they feel fulfilled in their role, that is.

• Green is in. Issues of sustainability and climate change are of major concern, and will affect their career choices.

• Can’t live without gadgets. They’ve grown up with technology – it is part and parcel of their lives, which includes the work they do for a living.

• The term work-life balance is passe. Employers can’t just encourage a balance but should provide the means for this balance through more flexible work hours.

• Respect my space, please. The Gen Y maintain clear separation between their work and personal lives, and are unwilling to share too much personal information with their employers.

• Coaching welcomed here. They prefer on-the-job development rather than formalised training, especially working with strong coaches and mentors.

• Cash is king. When it comes to benefits, cash bonuses are valued higher than training and development.

• We are all made the same. They believe in gender equality, where they and their partners will contribute an equal amount of financial support for their households.

• I rely on me. They will take personal responsibility for funding their retirement.

(source: a big accounting firm's website)

A Gen Y’s message to CEOs (Part II)

We want to contribute to your success

Managing people is an ongoing challenge. Its scope doesn’t just extend to what the millennials want and how you should give it to us. It is about your organisation assimilating a powerful team comprising all generations and expertise to drive business growth. We do expect a lot from our employers – however, we Gen Ys can help you get out of these difficult times, well-prepared for the upturn, given the right coaching and opportunities. Here are four reasons why you should focus on us:
We can help you implement your business strategy. Whether it’s going green, becoming innovation-driven or simply increasing productivity, millennials can be your best ambassadors and we can make things happen quick – so long as we feel inspired in our roles.

We are adventurous and can fill the gaps. We find on-the-job development opportunities, including rotational assignments and working with strong coaches, more important than formal training mechanisms. The striking difference between the millennials and the generations that precede us is that we are now more mobile and more willing to explore different careers. Organisations can take advantage of this and build a well-rounded workforce that understands the business inside out.

We can drive your Corporate Responsibility (CR) initiatives. As the CR movement gains traction, companies that do not demonstrate a strong work ethic commitment to their community, marketplace, workplace and environment run the risk of being spotlighted. We are your organisation’s markers when it comes to CR: a significant majority of the P survey respondents indicated that they would seek employers whose CR values reflected their own, and would consider leaving an employer if its social responsibility values no longer reflected their own.

We insist on technology which can drive your productivity. Having grown up with the internet, we are more likely to use our fluency with technology to get results – this makes us more efficient when it comes to pulling information together. What may appear as demanding to employers is just us pushing for tools that help us function more efficiently, ultimately increasing the overall productivity of the organisation.

Y-sing up to the millennials

Make no mistake – the talent war is alive and thriving in Malaysia. Due to the downturn, as employers you now have an opportunity to bring in new talent which previously might not have been available to you. But this also means you need to work hard to retain your existing performers.

Companies that make talent management – particularly their millennial talent – a boardroom agenda will be better positioned to take advantage of the talent surplus in current market conditions. On the other hand, businesses which cut back now might find that when the economic environment rebounds, they do not have enough of the right people for the upturn to remain competitive.

With the workforce and businesses going global like never before, it’s time to wise up to the millennials. Working through the Gen Ys’ pressure points will require a customised strategy, but here are some ideas to kick start the thought process:

• Compromise - There has to be give and take between the Gen X and Baby Boomer managers and their Gen Y employees. Managers will have to accept that we want challenge and recognition; and we want it now. Gen Ys in turn must wake up to the fact that in these economic times, it’s an employer’s market, and the bargaining power we once had is substantially diminished. We will have to make sacrifices, lower expectations and accept things for what they are.

• Coaching & grooming - Robust mentoring and succession planning programmes are two-way streets. They fulfill our need for recognition and development, and are good practices that organisations who are thinking long-term should have in place.

• Engage us on what matters to us - We want to be heard so communicate with us regularly and open up channels for us to air our views. We also expect flexibility in our work arrangements that allow us some balance between personal and office time. The environment (and the wider scope of CR) matters to us so think green in terms of policies and programmes.

• Empower us - Given challenges, the best will rise to the occasion. Gen Ys have a unique perspective on things – you might be surprised by what we can come up with.

A Gen Y’s message to CEOs

We Facebook. We iPhone. (not me I’m not such an IT savvy person) We are the kids who grew up watching the Smurfs and Thundercats (thunder… thunder… thunder… thundercat…) on TV, and were the first to use the internet to expand our social networks.(ICQ??? MSN?? Skype??? Gtalk??) And in many organisations, we are challenging the conventional views of work. Meet your newest generation of workers, known as the millennials. More commonly referred to as Gen Y, my fellow generation is broadly defined as those born in and around 1980, immediately after Gen X.

In Malaysia, approximately 36% of the labour force is aged 29 and under - that’s about 3.9 million millennials. My generation has more graduates than any other, and organisations are now presented with the opportunity to create a powerful knowledge-based workforce. In January 2009, a team of us at P Malaysia set out to survey our peers – who make up over 60% of the company’s workforce – in an effort to pinpoint our cohort’s motivations and expectations of work and careers. Ultimately, we wanted our findings to provide insight into the future of work to 2020. The resulting ‘Malaysia’s Gen Y unplugged’ research is the Malaysian perspective of the global P report, ‘Millennials at work - perspectives from a new generation’.
We know what’s keeping you awake at night

A recent global P survey of 1,100 CEOs and business leaders revealed that they are struggling to balance talent retention and cost reduction against a backdrop of economic deceleration. The numbers are interesting – 97% of CEOs believe that the access to and retention of key talent is critical or important to sustaining their growth, yet one in four CEOs globally are looking to reduce headcount this year. Over 60% of CEOs say they have challenges recruiting and integrating their millennial employees, and less than a third believe that they have a comprehensive understanding of their employees’ views and needs.

With many organisations’ long-term people strategy being tested, businesses must consider the complete picture to avoid blindly squeezing costs without appreciating the full impact. CEOs need to take into account all workforce segments, the money invested in employees and the skills needed to compete in order to avoid cutting too deeply.

That said, the economic downturn may well prove to be a blessing in disguise when it comes to the millennials. When we asked about career management strategies, 45% of our peers indicated that they would work harder to demonstrate their skill level. To us, it is even more important now to stand out in the crowd.

Millennials are smart and eager and best of all, we are affordable. Therefore, with short-term pressures greater than ever, the successful organisation will be the one which is able to get the most out of this new generation of workers.

徐佳莹~失落沙洲



又来到这个港口
没有原因的拘留
我的心乘着斑驳的轻舟
寻找失落的沙洲

随时间的海浪漂流
我用力张开双手
拥抱那么多起起落落
想念的还是你望着我的眼波

我不是一定要你回来
只是当又一个人看海
回头才发现你不在
留下我迂回的徘徊

我不是一定要你回来
只是当又把回忆翻开
除了你之外的空白
还有谁能来教我爱

this song is one of the song i like the most sung by lala during her competition in 'xing guang da dao'

Read Malaysia

Yesterday went to Read Malaysia 2009 at the Mines

to me it is a book fair which would not attract me to go
reason:

1) Location - The Mines is too far away from my house
2) Transportation - The Mines is not very convenient to go if you are without car
3) Participating Distribution - Not much big book distributor except CITE and MPH
4) Type of Books - Most of the books are not the latest books available in the market. It seems like more of an warehouse sales to me as compared to a proper bookfair which would really attract me to go.

Despite all the bad points mentioned below, there are also good points
1) Parking - the parking fees at the Mines is cheap... and they are using the parking sensor system which can assist you to find a parking space easily.
2) Food - there are food stalls nearby the book fair which sells variety of foods if you are hungry after reading some books. there is even a stall which sell vegetarian food :P
3) Entrance Fee - yeah this book fair is FOC... nowadays.. there are nothing which is FOC... :)

so my star rating for this book fair is...
** (to improve further if really wanna have read malaysia 2009)
i guessed i already found my purpose to on leave
but i guessed it would be big project

"Throw away" project
throw away a lot of things...
and packed all that is necessary and keep it until i need to move my house next year

cool project huh?
i think i guessed i know how to use my 20++ days leave gua?
no need travel

find things that can be recycle.
maybe i can seek some of the treasure which i lost it long long time ago?
the weather is hot and it's killing me...
god.. please rain...
i beg u

My taiwan friend's Malaysia's trip (Part 1)

Last month my friend, Sandy, Owen, F1 and Postman came all the way from Taiwan to Malaysia.

Sandy went to Sabah first with some of my parents elder friends and Owen, F1 and Postman came straight from Taiwan to KL.

29/4/2009


This is the first time F1 came to Malaysia and it should be a new experience for him since the Malaysian culture and Taiwan culture is a little bit similar tough most of the time different.


They arrive at KLIA around 2.30pm and they went straight to my friend’s house since there is something going on at my friends place.

Before having dinner with at my friends place, they tried out a little on the Chinese traditional sport, “che ling”


Mr postman in action which according to my friend he represents his school during primary days.

After dinner, Sandy, F1, Owen, Mr Postman and Jacky, Marsby and Ann went to Papa rich to enable all my Taiwan friend have a taste of the local style kopitiam… but they did not order coffee for drink.. weird.. go to kopitiam don’t order coffee?

While they are having coffee in Papa rich, I was rushing home, taking bath, having dinner.. and I kept on getting sms on what time I’m coming? What time I’m reaching.. I have no control and no idea cos.. It’s peak period for myself and the next day is the critical filing day.

Finally around 9 something I reach papa rich, and my task is to settle the bill. But before I managed to meet them, I was scared, cause I got hon for not looking whether there is any car passing by before I open the car door to go to meet my friends.


Pretend to be calm, and holding the purse like I’m going to be the boss :P


All of us taking photo together

After tea, we went to jusco, which is the famous shopping centre at Kepong, they want to change some RM and also do some simple shopping.

And something funny is.. F1 pay the cashier 50sen for a goods which cost around RM24.50 and the cashier did not told her that it’s RM 24.50.

Pengsan haha…

30/4/2009

Today I survive my first peak period since the change to my new position.
I managed to go off earlier since my dad came and pick me up.
We went to the temple earlier.. since we scared there will be a lot of people attending the BBQ that nite.

Followings are some of the exciting photo from the BBQ party

All the aunty busy cooking and preparing for the BBQ 2nite


Postman and F1 BBQing the food


Friends busy BBQing the food and I’m like superwoman walk super fast through the place creating something like what is capture in the photo


Sandy busy taking photo while we are busy BBQing


A table full of food for BBQ including sweet potato, Ikan Bakar, Corn, Hot dog, Satay, Cha Siew, Mashed potato and of course the curry puff is not for BBQ


This is what they call “people mountain people sea”?


Everybody’s attention on Ann’s dog

After we had our BBQ, we had a mini game to know each other called “fan tong kai fan” which mean rice bucket start dinner.

We ended going home early since there is class the second day.

1/5/2009

It’s a public holiday but it’s not a rest day for myself.
It’s a day to learn at the temple. To learn more and learn from the guru from Taiwan

Our class at the ground floor started with Chen ah Yi giving a brief introduction about the class


Followed by F1 talking to us on the do and don’t in class


From 上课 01052009

We are focusing on the class, but do u see anybody who already started to day dream?



After Owen gave us a briefing on what are the important area when we come for class, postman and F1 started giving us some test, after we have past the test we are being given a sticker each person. And there are 5 test for us to go through.


Myself demonstrating how to fold the towel

then lunch time came.. and we help to arrange the table and chair to prepare for everybody's lunch


(to be continue...)

initially intended to post this up on 1/6/2009 but no time to complete the post...
so it delay
hopefully can update it soonest possible
when i first come to the office, he was a TM of the firm..
and cause he always smoke i gave him a name call uncle Dunhill

But now he is no more uncle Dunhill, and he managed to find his soul mate of his life and managed to have a work life balance.
he worked very very hard towards his success and and as time passed.. he has become ED of the Frim at the age of 34
cool isn't it?

from the road of TM --> STM --> AD --> ED
based on the fast track road...
i think he have to face a lot of pressure...
but i do solute him
he is my new big boss and role model i like it :)

Proud Member of AccA

yo yo... now t0m@k0 can put AccA behind her name...

and leave the firm for good?

haha.. still wondering and still thinking ;)
please tell me why i'm always the last minute...
and i got warning for being last minute?

Young PPL should react fast rite?
or i'm too old to act young?

i do not know the answer to my above question
i'm wondering and searching

i know i can finished within a short period of time since i'm young
the problem is whether i wanted to do so?

clearing shit is a problem
but delaying the work is to 'help' myself by creating more shit instead of clearing the shit?
maybe i should change my mind set

Be FOCUS and DO NOT Delay?
i wonder why my to be promoted senior giving me not up to standard work?
is she wanting too much to rush the thing out to client

wonder why the work done is just like a junior work?
COS got breakdown why still need to ask client?
what waste more time?
i do not understand...

then it makes me start to mumble again and again

败犬女王~静止

败犬女王之情歌无双

finally finished watching 败犬女王
decided to start to watch it is cos of fish's latest album
decided to continue to watch is cos of the story line

it is not the 老掉牙 kind of story where a very poor gal meet rich guy
and they are enemy at first
then they understand each other then fall in love.

i like this story cos it's pretty close to the heart
reflect something which is close to the heart

i was looking for the sound track of 败犬女王
but search for a few CD shop cant find it
wonder would i be able to find it???

so i ask my friend trevor who is very good at searching stuff online...
and he 9dim the album for me within half an hour.
but my office cant let me open the zip file
so i have to wait until come back home only can open it.

in the afternoon, trevor ask me...
eh.. did he downloaded the wrong thing..
no fish singing..
yeah i told him it's correct that's the soundtrack
it's like you are watching the tv series again and again
when you listen to the sound track

i like the sound track...
it's nice just that it missed out one song called 情歌 which make the whole movie very very touching ;)

p/s: since i already got all the song that i want in my harddisk... i wonder whether should i buy the original CD anymore?

败犬女王

after half a year...
after many many morning cos wanna watch this tv series...
cos my dear to be late for his work
after being patient for so many many weeks
finally 败犬女王 has come to it end.
no ending punya ending
actually is a good ending 败犬女王 would have her own way of living
surviving
enjoying her life

do not hope that this tv series will have part II
do not hope that it would have 败犬女王II
cos it would not be nice to have series two unless it is very nicely written

first know of this tv series cos of fish's album
watched the other tv series where the theme song was sung by fish..
but that one was not as interested for me as compared to this one.
this one is very realistic
very true

even being 败犬 doesn't mean the world is going to collapse!
cos 幸福的标准应该由自己决定!
it doesn't matter how other think of you and look at you
nobody knows better than you whether you are happy

i like what lucas said in the last episode...
"不管三十五,四十五还是五十五岁,最重要是我想一辈子和你在一起!"
so sweet.
just being together any problem is not a problem..
just being together..
that's what matter
没有结婚也没关系 只要在一起就是一种幸福咯!
