虽然我一直说知己的华文很烂但是跟一些人比较, 我还算不错出哈哈!!

最近公司发生了许多事情令我烦恼, 尤其是那个我介绍的同事 给了我许多问题.
他一下子对这一份工作很有兴趣, 另一分钟又很不在乎.

使我这个介绍人真难为情!

你说我该怎么办?

My goodness, its no small wonder how time flies pass u when you are busy yeah?

My holiday flew right pass me and yes I have been really busy!
I worked on Xmas eve, Xmas itself, boxing day and the day afte boxing day (which was yesterday, even though i took a day off work)

My goodness!

Maybe I am psychotic, I simply love working. I love being busy even if it means having your supplier waking you up early on xmas eve (after a night of good food and booze).

He called my handphone at freaking 8.30am! And I had to talk to him for one good hour, trying to visualise what he was trying to tell you and struggling to remember details of what you have asked him to do the day before in the office.

Then my manpower contact also have to call me later when i was having my lunch. He later called me again on Christmas day itself to once again inform me that he is going out of town and I should contact his next person in charge if I need additional helping hands.

My makeup artist contact called me on boxing day to confirm details, I have to call the other 4 makeup artists regarding their portfolio etc, and this drag all the way until yesterday when I was supposed to be on leave.

Some makeup artists are from Malaysia and I had to give them notice when to come in etc. Anyhow, im glad eventually those who are being engaged for the show are living in singapore and therefore not so troublesome. Just too bad, when I called them they did not answer their phones, I cannot keep waiting, thus, I have to engage somebody else.

so now, im back in my very messy office, doing work, filing, accounts, coordination and yes eating snake (because im blogging) i wonder if i would come to enjoy this kind of work if i do make it my permanent job.

hmmm...

Its Christmas morning today... Merry Christmas!!
How did you celebrate yours ?

x-mas eve
-----------
I spent mine having dinner with family and some friends and after that a The chronicles of Nardia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, movie outing.

I thought that was a heart warming movie to watch during the festive season. And a good book to buy. I think there's a series of 7 books.

dinner was cool, lotsa food, but as usual, we dint get to finish eating.
we ate roast beef, baked ham, garden salad, seafood salad,baked ham and 2 rounds of wine, white before dinner and red during dinner.

Fantastic wines those.
Yummy.

23 Dec 2005
-------------
At work, my colleague and I went to buy a log cake to hype up the festive mood in the office. Speaking of which, office is a war zone these days with datelines getting tighter and tighter.

Anyhow, I do hope that the cutting of cake helps to diffuse some of the angst everybody felt in the office that dull friday afternoon.

And what's more? Boss is sponsering the cake, which means, i dint get to pay for it at all! (even though i gotta claim for it!)

Some pictures...


The yummy cake from four leaves


My egoistic and very embarassed boss, harassed by simple cake cutting.

Was just wondering about the intricacies of life.

How one when borned was the apple of most people's eye, and soon you outgrow that and develop your own personality and set of characteristics that either endear you to some or obstracised you from the rest.

How one's set of priorities changes as one ages.
How we adore our parents when younger. I thought my dad was superman because he was capable of all things superb, like being santa claus when he doesnt exist at all. Nonetheless, he gave me much happy memories of my childhood.

How ties with your parents become less important and you have your set of friends.
How some ties with parents are even strained because of influence of bad company.

Its just that in one's life we are dealt with so many choices and paths to choose. Some through sheer luck or with blessings from the one above (whomever you might be
) choose the right path and have a blessed journey thorughout life and some who needed some trials and tribulations in order to get back to the correct path and how some who are not at all so lucky, lived a life in tenterhooks and misery.

How do one gauge if one have been successful in one's life? What contribute to having lived life to the fullest and how many of us actually lived life to fullest?
Do you determine how sucessful you are ...
By how far you climb on the corporate ladder?
By the type of car or apartment you lived in?
By the type of pets that you own?
by the type of branded goods you carry?
Or by the credit balance in your bank account?

Arent all these just superficialities?

dont we return to dust when its time for us to abandon our human shell?
Do we then get to bring all these things away with us?

Then why do so many people live in misery when they cannot achieve those material needs.

I personally think that as long as your most basic needs are being met, there's not much to worry about.

What will come will eventually come, what you are destined to have, you will have. Why go about achieving something that would bring you misery and not happiness?

why go about wasting precious time chasing all things superficial and therefore missing out on the beauty of what life brings and the joy of spending time with your loved ones?

Just as i was about to go to work, my itchy hands had to switch on the tv.

Being the last channel being watched last night, HBO appeared and guess wad... it was screening Big Fish.

One movie I havent yet watched - and i was so hooked onto the movie that i had to finished watching it before i head off for work.

Interestingly, it is a movie about how a boy who grew up distrusting his father (because he was missing for much of his childhood) and the stories (and adventures) that the father told him when he was young.

There was a particular scene whereby this grown up boy confronted his father who is seriously sick.

He said,
"Dad, do you know about the iceberg? You only see 10% of it, and the rest of it is hidden underwater. That is how i feel about you. When are you going to let me see the rest of you and be who you are? Be it a bad guy or a cruel guy.. anything, just be yourself for once."

And his father replied, all my life, i have played a role, that is being me and nothing else."

The grown up boy who is soon to be a father said, "I am soon to be a father, and if my child grows up not knowing me, i would be devastated. The stories you have told me, are good enough for 5-6 years old. Yes I believed in you before, I just hope that i haven't believed you that long. Now that I am all grown up, they are not enough anymore"

His father said, "If you have not understood me all these years, then it is your failing, not mine."

I guess it was particularly sad to hear this from your own flesh and blood, especially when you are sick and ridden on bed.

And guess what?

When the father finally passed away, all the fanciful characters he had ever heard in his childhood, people that his father has helped in his lifetime -without expecting anything in return - turned up for his last rites. It was a real turnout.

I wonder when we go pass on, would we have as many people turning up at our funeral to send us off? Would we live favourably in their memory?

That much i wonder . . .

video section changed.

Instead of Mariah Carey prancing about in my humble blog, its now bimbo 1000% Jessica Simpson showing off her bimbotic looks with a red umbrella.

Love her or hate her...

I kinda detest it, but well its only for another week anyway =D

Are you into the Christmasy mood yet?

I was until the video was changed. *Argh*

hmmm... the much awaited star awards is here yet again.

No, i did not go attend it (not famous enough) haha!
And I dint really watch the whole of it. I was plagued with a really annoying headache that day, and had thrown up all the food and water i drank that afternoon, was therefore in no mood to watch tv.

It was only when i have had nothing to throw up anymore, that i decided to brave the glare of the tv box, and watched them giving out awards on Ch. 8.

As with all star awards, who has got what and who wear what is the most talked about topic in town. I shall not lose to the others. Although I do think, Chen Hanwei and Huang Biren deserved their Best Actor/actess award, I do not think I wanna talk much about it.

However, i shall only blog about those dresses i love =)

I love these dresses these divas wore that nite!
Look at jacelyn tay's whooping neckline and amazing cleavage! Dont you wish you had those amazing assets?

Here's a close up!



Oh man.. how droolsome!

I loved both michelle chong and zoe tay's dress too. so elegant!!! Don't you?!

Today started on a bad note.
And I did not get up on the wrong side of the bed.

Nevermind that, I dont feel like any mention of it, because my stomach is boiling at the mere thought of it.

Nonetheless, I was dealt another fatal blow, I was told that my beautician is quitting the company, and her last day is this month end. I will miss her dearly. It was because she was so good that I signed the package. Now who shall I get to do my facials for me? I am at such a lost.

she's really good, my friends and colleagues all mentioned how my skin has changed for the better lately, all thanks to her!

I shall daringly post my after facial photo, taken the moment i touch homebase, after my facial appointment. Even though I had my blackheads extracted excruiciatingly, my skin did not suffered the after effects of puffy, bumpy and reddish face.

Just look at that! Jane I will miss you dearly! *sniff*

ah dunno when my mother bought the gem.

I am uuuuuusssssing ittttt thisss mommmment......
my tummy needed some massaging real bad
How else to lose the flabbbbiness there ?
its quite fun though.... to feel the flabs flabbing and i can feel them tightening already.
(who the hell am i kidding, it feels damn itchy at the moment)

the messager works on the upper abdomen, lower abdomen and massages your tummy in 3 parts, the left, the centre and the right.

Damn it, my tummy fats sure feels itchy.. a sign that it is working? dissipating the fats in the area?

I dunno, but according to coach potato the flying dutchmen, it helps him lose his flabs there in a few weeks. haha Cool stuff!!

I'll let u know the verdict okie =)
Think it costs about 300+ for one.

Yea, aint it obvious =)
I have Mariah Carey prancing about in a santarina dress!

Haha!
Enjoy the video before I get bored of it and changed it for something else.

For those who would like to sing along:

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
And I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you

I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't even wish for snow
And I, I just wanna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
I won't make a list and send it
To the North Pole for St. Nick
I won't even stay awake
To hear those magic reindeer click
Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding onto me so tight
What more can I do
Oh baby, all I want for Christmas is you

All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of childrens'
Laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me
The one I really need
Won't you please bring my baby to me, quickly

I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just wanna see my baby
Standing right outside my door
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby, all I want for Christmas is you
All I want for Christmas is you, baby

All I Want For Christmas Is You - Mariah Carey

i probably changed the video once i learnt how to sing it, and i learn quite fast, i was in the school 's Choir for almost 6 years you know =D

They say, if you have nostrils that are large, there is the tendency for you to spend nonstop.

They also say, if you have a mole on your right wrist, it indicates a person who tends to spend more than what he/she earns.

I dont have big nostrils no, i dont. (checks reflection in the mirror) Confirm i dont have it okie!

But i do have that blardy mole they are talking about. (i think i do) *curses and swears*

While on most occasions i would like to delude myself saying that's a blardy freckle not a mole, i can't help but be reminded that it is a mole on the right wrist.

Because ...
Last week i spend lotsa money on a pair of emerald earrings to replace the lost diamond one. Im doing that even though i have yet to receive my miserable pay of $300 for the "work" I have done for the past few (4) days.

I paid the season parking for my boyfriend this month.

I paid the season parking for my dad this month too.

I paid my credit card bills.

I paid my phone bills and my dad's.

and I want to

* buy a pay of jeans, desperately needed to buy it
- i dont have any more available pair of jeans to wear without trying to kill myself each time i try buttoning and zipping it.

* buy myself the N70 handphone *drools*
* buy my new bikini (!!!!)
* buy a pair of running shoes


Tell me is that a mole im spotting or is that a freckle?

I BLARDY THINK ITS A MOLE AND I AM SO THINKING OF REMOVING IT SURGICALLY. *SCOWLS*

I havent been dressing up for a really long time now.

Dont bother to practice my makeup skills. So rusty already.
I was put to shame when i was surfing some blog sites featuring married women with 2 kids and still looking so fabulous!

My goodness, and Here i am, not yet ballooned with child nor married (@@) and is gaining such a thick spare around my waist. (why dont you just kill me!)

Dieting is such a pain in the ass, excerbated by the fact that my bf loves supper at Prata houses and got a sweet tooth, its little wonder why my dieting regime always fail me.

Is there any painless yet effective way of losing weight?

In the meantime, let me clean off the dust on my makeup poach and start practice the art of doodling colors on my face.
