nothing in particular

Transfer is confirmed 99%, 1st Feb i shall be leaving this dumb S project.
I will miss the lunch kakis and helpful collegues :'(

It seems the new team will have quite alot of indians, i might have problems understanding the language but heck..i must learn smth new and useful there, its FOC afterall @_@

Over the first week of Jan, my shoes became:
Poor shoes ..i often abuse my shoes..shucks~


And I played overnite mahjong and survived till 6am while coding via VPN and in between having mac breakfast at 4am plus! Look at the time on the photo..



Just yesterday and today I had a total of 3 egg tarts, this pastry chef in the canteen makes great tarts..even better than the one we had in HK. The egg tart was hot with the egg is bobbing up and down in the crust *slurp*


This is a misc post as I have free time now XD -.-'

The situation now is like this,

I am in a international football club, the manager is dissatisfied with me and threw a boot in my face in the changing room. My contract with this football club is ending soon, the manager decides to put me up for free transfer, loan me off to other clubs or wait for me to quit club.

So the transfer window is open now, I am negotiating with other teams to see if I can make a deal elsewhere.

Sounds like beckham's story, oh yes its happening to me as well except tt I am in IT and the manager threw emails in my face not a boot. An internal transfer may take place in Feb if boss releases me...

Well, it would be great to learn ERP and such in the new team..will be missing the great collegues here minus 3 statues~

Something drastic happened today, till now i am still in the disbelief mode. -.-'
Suay things come in a package I tell you.

Firstly, morning we had a meeting with the management on solving of defects from testing at customer's site. So it was down to the questioning of WHY is THIS NOT DONE? Why is it delayed? When is it gonna be done?

My poor team leader was targetted and shot all over. And as usual what ever reasons given sounds like an excuse to those management pple.

Second meeting started right after the first, with the same pple involved. This time there's a new target board..as usual scold scold scold..blah blah blah...~

After that it was this huge downpour after we left for lunch with insufficient umbrellas, so we got delayed..and finally got back to comfy office later.

At about 5pm this news started from one msn contact, the news that Co. IR4 was sacked and asked to leave on the spot.

I thought this only happens in dramas whereby the person is fired on the spot with the letter thrown in his face and he packs his stuff, and leave escorted with pple.

It happened in office today!
Everyone was silent, and looking at the procession leaving with him, or rather sending him to the door step.

After boss came up, our antenae picked up a few signals..something like, Co. IR4 said he would go to the police or smth.. Afraid that he wld come back and do something disastrous, boss asked if the guards could prevent him from coming back in.
*he was nicknamed suicide bomber -.-*

Although he did us many wrongs, but being sacked on the spot was something none of us foreseen. As I heard earlier on, that Co. IR4 maybe the scapegoat for xxx so maybe that's why he has been killed as sacrificial item or killed as a warning to all. =.=

Feeling bored, at ard 5pm i went to see if kitty is there.
O yes she is, so is the malay who asked for my number the other time.
This time he asked again.

Malay : "How's work? How's everything? ...blah blah "
Me : *Luckily he nv ask hows the weather*
Me: "Ok lor..busy."
Malay: "Who is that FAT guy? "
Me: o.o fat guy? "Oh thats my uni fren, now my collegue." XD
*Sorry jon u were referred as the fat guy again*
Malay: "Oh I see..does your bf like cats?"
Me: "O he prefers dogs. -.-"
Malay: *Mutters smth i cant hear*
Me: "??" *turns to go back office*
Malay: "Can i have your number?"
Me: "I pass you my namecard next time den, my number is on it."
Malay: "C'mon its just a phone number"
Me: "Ok, 9xxx xxxx"
*Does misc stuff, goes back office*

Jon says I shld have replied the fat guy is my bf's fren and will whack anyone that comes near me. *LOL* And that should set him off. But anyway i tot of a good excuse, a truly good one,

i LOVE pork too much, sorry~

Thought of the Day: I do not like spies.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Recently boss is back in office together with aishen.
They are back for appraisal thingy.

The dreaded appraisal, whereby team leaders, supervisors go through the quality of work that we low down employees deliver.

How come no employees appraises the GDI supervisors?
I wld jolly well give them a failing grade because:

- They send nonsense emails
- They do stupid things like walking around and trying to push us by talking
- They make us do things that are out of job scope and say we cant deliver our own stuff on time
- They say no more leave to be taken after they cleared they own leave, cant they forsee when pple go on leave, work goes behind schedule

Just went for appraisal, there must be a spy somewhere.
Damn u spy! I hate spies..i wish to kill u with radioactive object now!!!
I got a few suspects on hand already..u shall be cursed right now from this moment.

Boss says wor, " I have been told that yy is always surfing the net,
yy is always msning. Please keep it minimal during office hrs."

"I was also informed on your disappearance in the morning, see cat ar?"

Then i replied her, morning? O i go fill up my cup and walk around then come back lor. Then she says dont go for so long like half hr.
I told her no la, where got at most 15 to 20mins.

And she asked, "Are you staying till july?"
I was quite taken aback when she asked that -.- den I replied, "Not say I want to go, then can go one leh."

Boss: "Why not? "
Me: "Cos i have to find the next job first mah."
Boss: "I am very direct. You will be looking out of *** (company name) or within?"
Me: "Will be lookin around be it internal shuffle or new job. For personal interests or IT field." *zzzz*

Another part of conversation,
Boss: " How are you adapting? Getting scolded every now and then. Getting pushed by me, QA others..."
Me: "Its the problem of getting used to it lah. I am getting into the pace required. " *Tried to smile sincerely at the end of appraisal*

Did she see the knives in my smile? No la, my acting not so bad bah. -.-''

There is this crisis here..I think..I spent too much after getting my bonus.

Dim Sum For Parents: $133
Dim Sum For frens : $96
Buying shoes : $45
Roller blades : $199
Bibi's anniversary present : Chelsea windbreaker $92

And some more to come..oh shiet spent more than $500 le..this is saddening..

I almost indugled in buying some 3 clothings from a china seller which i fell in love with.

In case you do not know, I have a thing for winter clothings/accessories. For example boots, mufflers, fur(whatever) stuff.

But Singapore is right on the Equator, so well I had no chance of doning those stuff I like.
I want to buy a white rabbit fur belt, anyone saw it around? The china seller wants to sell me @ RMB165 /pc , so expensive...zzz
And I would like a pair of boots as well T_T, I used to have one which I wore all over the place with almost any outfit when I was in uni 1st-2 year..I must be known as "Puss in boots" , *pun not intended*.

I know boots is hard to match but I like it..and with all the surfing on Ebay and Taobao China, the business spirit in me has awaken.

I used to sell silver accessories online, but stopped cos the supplier stopped supplying.
Maybe shoes and stuff would be good.

If you have lobang for NICE pretty fashion Bags/Shoes/Dresses, tag my board now with ur msn!

Thought of the Day:

Round 1 : YY VS Tester 1-0
-------------------------------------------------------------


First day at work in year 2007, i felt rejunvenated after the 6 days break lmao~
New hair, but no gel of shiet... nvm i love my new hair

Ok start work~

Went to Auntie Annie's to get a haircut with ks. We are both dyeing and cutting our hair.

Ks is dyeing hair for the first time..hehehehe
Before :

Yes that was me with chubby cheeks at 6pm in my office before going to meet ks for anniversary. Dot here's the pic u wanted to see, disappointing eh?!

In progress:

I tried to discreetly take a pic of myself hmm..its hard -.-

Final Product:



Ks complains he wants dark bronze but they don't have such color..hmm dye is not obvious on his black hair..my color was this ashy blonde, but i wanted it darker so I can find a new job w/o looking like a cao ah lian *lol*

The couch area, hmm the design with something protruding in the middle..seems..hmm~

You can oversee the entire city view from this area.

Out of date xmas tree in pink, its already 29th Dec, the tree is still here.. Nice pink tree~

Movie goodies, food at The Cathay taste MUCH MUCH better den those at GV i tell you..

Jumbo Hotdog with bread at $4.80 abit steep but it taste GD. Popcorn + softdrink (lover's combo) at 5bucks ++.

Movie: Night at the museum -- 4/5

I love the part on the cowboy, putting the roman "to death" and the museum in charge didnt find it amusing at all... Go watch it if you haven!

During the past few days, I had attempted to learn how to be a woman.

Beng and Wu obviously think there is something wrong when a female does not own many pairs of shoes, according to them, women love going into shoe shops and coming out with at least a pair of shoes in their shopping trips..



Well, honestly speaking I own 2 heels and 1 flip flop. Flip flop..used to go everywhere during weekends and fridays unless I m wearing a short skirt. If I match flip flop with short skirt, it makes me look short.. -.-' Heels, for work and special occasions.. thats all.



My shoes are boring..yes I know, I wanna get some lovely shoes too but den~ I m darn choosy when it comes to shoes, first design, second color,den price. Most shoes usually don't go past the first stage =_='



Upon hearing there was some cheap shoes for sale, i marched to beauty world on a friday early noon, hoping to catch some worms..yikes~ the shop hasn't opened..zzz so I waited till 1pm, while waiting, I saw this: cute moosey >.>




And there, these are what I bought. But shiet, one of the pair in white(3rd from left) is for my sis, cos there aint my size BOO HOO~ All four pairs of shoes costs $45 in total..wee~

During the wkend, wu, beng, ks and me went to watch sneak preview of Death Note 2 and The curse of the golden flower.

Thank you beng for getting the tickets for us.*Actually he lives near the mall..tt's y XD *

Death Note 2:

I had expected something else for the ending..o well its quite surprising o.0?
But i wished Kira killed that L instead. O yes i m for the evil forces.
Rating:4/5

If you have been reading my blog, you probably know i wished i had a death note too and i would write that bloody bitches/ testers etc into that book. But reassure, the righteous side is still in control. Even if i had death note, the book would be clean ok? So no danger for lives of those idiots zzzz -_-''


The curse of the golden flower:

The ending came unexpectedly..lmao...and the joke of the day was that prince on the far left..trying to revolt with 8 guards.. XD -.-'

I must say the deco of the palace with those colorful glass/plastic was very nice...

I hesitated watching this movie at first..as you already know most chinese movies arent worth the $8 to watch..BUT beng says...he wanna see BOOBS wor..ok lor, so we went to watch..hehehe

It was literally a sea of chrysanthemums and a sea of boobs in the movie.. =.=' i wonder how many corsets they bursted?? o.o

Rating: 3.8/5 , 0.2 marks minus for the strange untimely ending

Xmas is here once again, I dun have the habit of celebrating xmas since I got into Uni or rather since I outgrown buying those cutesy stuff for my sisters or what not.


So if you didnt receive any xmas gifts from me, its definitely normal. I wld like to thank collegues for the gifts. Thank U!


Friday was a slack day, we had lunch till 2pm plus..hehe den a collegue bought mango, persimon*how to spell* and jack fruit, and mochi mochi *japanese muah chee with ice cream*



So earlier on in the noon we had pple from HR singing xmas carols in our office..zzz Being in HR is not easy nowadays u know~

At 4pm plus, I went to visit kitty and fed her. Cutie pie..but somehow I cant get an angle that can snap both of us -.-'




Since 2007 is coming soon, there's a need to evaluate the present and set goals for the future..

The present:

It has been a lousy year with lotsa LITTLE pple around..bah~ And I was suspecting my blood pressure has increased with those dumbo emails floating around my inbox..heng the health report came back saying "Keep up with your healthy lifestyle and diet"

There's this cheena guy in the office that irritates us badly..last friday, we had to virtually BEG him to provide us with a program that adds some days to a date ( we tot it was not available).

My team leader had to prepare a xmas gift for him, and this cheena man replied,"Oh actually the function is done already, but just haven release." With that, he happily got his gift leaving us feeling irritated..We had to bribed+beg him into providing us with smth that he was supposed to do.

Past weeks I had been at battle with this blah dee tester..but well, ceased fire I do not have the energy to post and bother abt him BAH!

Although he sat 1 seat away in the train yesterday evening, I swore if there was someone carrying soup or sharp object, I would have stretch my leg out and tripped that guy so he would have landed on that tester...HEHE~ *evil grin*

This coming saturday, I was planning to go dye my hair black with dark purple *think Sailor Mars's hairs* BUT FOOK...the management ask us to ALL GO DOWN ON A SATURDAY 2PM ONWARDS to go test something..*** waste one whole wkend lor

2pm onwards..minimum OT 3hrs..finish already 5pm ***

These pple need a get-a-life coupon, seriously!

Recently I went on an interview..
The post applied for: Software Engr.

Seriously speaking, I had no intention of being a software Engineer or Engineer of any sort or so to speak..

I knew the company was a small enterprise looking for pple who have the passion and mind for solving problems..I knew I had none of them.

So he gave me a test..problem qns:
Given an array of size 99 , numbers 1 to 100 put into the array. 1 number will be missing from the array. How do u find the missing number?

I tried to find my way around the qns..but shit i got it wrong..with some variables..but heck, he asked how do u improve ur solution? That i totally had no answer for..

Actually what he wanted was : First sort the array, den compare element i with element i+1. When the difference is not 1, the number in the middle must be the missing number.

This is called problem solving..and he said,"Maybe your passion is not in coding..blah blah blah"
Okok, I know i should not have mentioned during the interview, my real interest in life was not being an IT engineer. But for once, I wanted to tell a future employer the TRUTH..

In my current job, during the interview boss(read bitch) asked me,"Where do u think u will be in 5 years time?"

So being taught to answer this qns..i answered,"I should be doing less coding and being involved in project management"

Ah fiak..this is not my intention in life. It has never been.

Before asking me why on earth did i take the Computer Engineering course in Uni..well, it has always been what I wanted to study since I was in secondary school when i first made my HTML webby for my idol (back then).

When in JC, i took the combi of physics, further mathematics C, mathematics C, Economics to qualify for entry to Computer Engineering course *though i dropped econs later cos it wasnt needed* .. All along the way, I never regretted taking Comp Engr..although it proved to be very mind taxing on the electronics/hardware module ..yes i have lousy physics knowledge..and i cant analyse circuits fast enuff in that 2.5hrs of exams.. Well I loved maths though. Industry attachement was enjoyable, and I thought..maybe being a web developer is pretty fun and challenging too =.=

Till I graduated..and ended up in this shietty project..my flame has been extinguished..
I no longer wanna be a comp engr....


I want to learn to make pastry, desserts and open my cafe.

Had dinner at Marina Square's MoonFish Seafood Restaurant...



Starter: Seafood Platter . Not bad, calamari was nice

Ice cappaucino and italian sunset

Baked crayfish with cheese and pasta

Chicken and Lobster. Lobster is as small as crayfish =.=

My present : Mokozi from Action City. Most comfortable cushion I ever hugged. But wait..no i think bibi is the most comfortable cushion followed by mokozi.. XD

Next went to watch movies at CineLeisure..mood ruined by carpark slot searching..Sleepy and tired while watching Mo4 Gong1 by Andy Lau.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz................

Movie was nice, food was nice, fresh. But price at MoonFish for the above fare was $67 i had a 10% discount for using UOB debit card..but its too pricey. I could have been eating something else with 67bucks man.

Kitty hides here in the morning when the cleaner is around...

赛里死 is the only place whereby pple celebrate when they are leaving the company XD
Yesterday 6 of us went to celebrate a collegue's farewell at Marine Parade Branch of Fish & Co.

Nice Bar counter yea?




Nice furnishing, glass doors/windows


But aww we had no cushion seats..


Lunch time had this "Treat for 2" offer which was very good.
1 Appetiser (a list)
2 Drinks (only 3 choices -.-)
2 Main courses (a list)

Each person around 15 bucks or so.

We had "the best Fish & Chips" ,


And fish nuggests as appetizer..its pretty good.


Overall rating : 3.8 / 5
