Singapore First Internet Best Food Guide

Singapore First Internet Best Food Guide

Found this website from one of the HWZ visitor. Quite interesting so no harm to take a look.

Don't loose the 90%

How true but it is only human to look for what we don't have...

Adultery happens when you start looking for what you don't have.

"Wow, this girl in my office is a real looker. I'm crazy about her because she's also understanding, intelligent, tender - so many things that my spouses not."

Somewhere along the way, you'll find a woman or a man who will be more charming or sensitive. More alluring. More thoughtful. Richer. Have greater sex appeal.

And you will find a man who will need you and pursue you and go loco over you more than your spouse ever did.

Because no wife or husband is perfect. Because a spouse will only have 90% of what you're looking for. So adultery takes place when a husband or wife looks for the missing 10%.

Let's say your wife is melancholic by nature. You may find yourself drawn to the pretty clerk who has a cherry laughter. Or because your wife is a homebody in slippers and pajamas, smelling of garlic and fish oil, you may fall for a fresh-smelling young sales representative that visits your office in a sharp black blazer, high heels, and a red pencil-cut skirt.

Or because your husband is the quiet type, your heart may skip a beat when you meet an old college flame that has the makings of a talk show host.

But wait! That's only 10% of what you don't have. Don't throw away the 90% that you already have! Add to your spouse's 90% the 10% that represents all the years that you have been with each other. The storms you have weathered together. The unforgettable moments of sadness and joy as a couple. The many adjustments you have made to love the other. The wealth of memories that you've accumulated as lovers.

Adultery happens when you start looking for what you don't have. But faithfulness happens when you start thanking God for what you already have.

But I'm not just talking about marriage. I'm talking about your life. About your jobs. About your friends. About your children. About your lifestyles. Are you like the economy airline?


The main message:

If you start appreciating what you have right now, wherever you are it is FIRST CLASS!

Jelousy Test.. ..??

Most people experience a certain amount of fear that their loved one could leave them for someone else. After all, these things happen, and when they do, it is usually very painful. You, on the other hand, appear to have a complete lack of jealous feelings. If you were honest with yourself while taking the test, this means that you are extremely secure, strong, and independent. You know that if your partner ever leaves you, you will survive with your self-esteem and dignity intact. You realize that even though you might love your partner very much, s/he is not the only fish in the sea, and that you would eventually find happiness with someone else.

A quiz to test for your jealousy. Hope you are not a green eye monster all the time.

"Things Change, People Change"

Many things around our life are changing all the time, whether it is for the better or for the worse

Marriage requires commitment. A commitment to make it work. It does not take only one person to make it work, it takes two.

"Marrying someone you dun love most" might be a regret in one's life. But how many people in the world really does marry one whom he or she really love most ?

"In real life, the person you love most, might change." You might find someone you love more than the person you love most as time pass by. Does it mean you are going to regret later.... Think about it
Sometimes, people call this "fate"

If every single person on earth is not able to find someone whom they love the most, Does it mean marriage is never going to happen?

Getting married to someone who you love but not the most, might not be a bad thing....
Marrying someone you dun love at all - that is worse

If you love a person and is committed to be with him/her, marriage will work out and he/she might become the peron you love most over time.

"Thing change, people change"
Nobody can tell what lies for you tomorrow...
Enjoy the process...
If you love someone, never take him/her for granted...

This is what i always believe....
A marriage or any relationship will last if a couple
"Never take each other for granted"

I love my wife, that is simple and nothing more complicated.

Holiday Trip

Me and my wife is planning a short getaway from this small island. Together with my colleague and her boyfriend is joining us for a 2D/1N trip in this bigger island in Indonesia, Batam.

Do come back next week to see some photo shots that taken by my Minolta F300 5.0 MegaPixel camera.

Changes Take Place :0

Life getting not better beacuse of GDP, people's attitude changes because you grow fatter, salary getting thinner because economy is not good.

All this small and big change take place around us very quickly and sometime you dun ever notice that. Some time it is because of our fault, but some time it is because some one grows up or grows old. Like me, a bit sian of shopping and walking along orchard road, prefer to have nice meal at home either lunch or dinner with friends or colleague.

Althought still have 1 years ++ then say goodbye to 20, but my heart in certain area still playful and never change. I still prefer to sit in front of my computer and do my favour things, PLAY COMPUTER GAMES.

Just remember, every days there is change but there is some thing that last forever if you have the heart to maintain it, it is possible to have it forever lasting, I mean friendship.

I have friends who are close to me, seeing everyday and I really treat them like bully, good friend, best friend and a friend that they will lay their life down for you. But in the end, they backstab you when trouble take place, they speak ill of you when they got nothing to do in office. ....me come back later. Got things to do again...so tired.

I'm an Aries, therefore:

DO'S

Aries are naturally active and vibrant people and they tend to like such people too. You will have to increase your pace to be in step with them. They like and appreciate frank and straightforward persons. With them you can be your true self (but don't try your luck being over frank-they are volatile). If you are in love with an Arien, then you have to show your enthusiasm in all their activities (you can always yawn later!).

DON'TS

Do not tell an Aries that s/he may be wrong. Any such statement may stir a storm in a teacup. Aries are very faithful and passionate lovers. Do not give air to the smouldering fire within them by making them jealous. No flirtation or fooling around with others in their presence unless of course you wish to write your death wish (you will be granted!).

First issue::
Today when I submit my report to my CFO, he wants me to announce in the email to everyone that this guy so and so didn't shut down his computer last evening, and if repeats on the next time, his name is going to be on the notice board + 40% pay cut.

Second issue::
Regards to the blocking of game sites for the staff, the matter is getting hotter as I have to report to their direct manager and my GM as well. But me and my GM didn't want the CFO or Deputy MD to know about this. If not, more than 8-10 staff will penalise and I will get curse and swear behind me.

Third issue::
Totally no mood to write at the moment, have another evaluation report to write and submit to my GM and MD.

Bye!

Finally, I manage to learn Cisco Configurating with one of the vendor. Lesson one is ...how to access Cisco router by using a Linux system via console (cable connection).

Lesson one detail is learn how to apply Access Control List - means to block what traffic can come in and go out. So I manage to block all staff from surfing a popular website call NeoPet.

Quite happy after many days of research, but in the middle of configuring, some hicaps and cause all internet connection to be down. But I gain some experience.

Hurray....can't wait 6:30 pm to arrive.

July 01, 2003

From today onward, I can't go home promptly. Dun ask me the reason why cause you know the situation in Singapore at the moment.

Pay cut is across the board 15% and working hour has adjusted from 9am to 6:30pm (30 mins. more instead of 6pm), 5 day work.

I dun feel sad about work, I feel sad about my life. Why I end up paying debts to live my life going on and getting this type of pay while having a degree paper and 6 years working experience. My mood has been very down for this few weeks. I dun feel like toking to anyone, just feel frustrated at people in the work place.

June 20, 2003

North East Train just started today, eager to try out but second thought of it.....dun try out during weekday. What if train jam or technical error like LRT in West area, I will be late for work and deduct salary.

Found a Nutrition Website that hosted locally and a lot of useful information. For example, it can calulate our Body Mass Index, Waist-Hip Ratio, Calorie Calculator and daily activity calories that it burns.

So, here is the URL http://www.nutrition.com.sg.

By the way, I was discussing whether or not to have baby at this moment, but second and third thought of it, we decided to push it 2 years later. When we are in a better finanical status 'cause we dun wish the baby to suffer like us. Morever, we still want to have more freedom like now.

June 13, 2003

Hurray !!!! Friday again, I'm organising a small gathering between some of my close colleague at a small pub located at Mohd Sultan, follow by bringing them to my favour wine bar at Roberston Walk. If we manage to capture some pix. Will post in my newly add section located at right side of my blog.

Wonder what should I drink with a budget of $30 for tonight.

June 09, 2003

After 2 day 1 nite (Sat and Sunday) never sleep, I'm finally sick. I didn't did it on purpose but there is something bothering me from sleeping and now finally I cannot take it and got sore throat now. Normal cough, flu, running nose and slight fever. But temperature starts to drop to 36.3 in the afternoon (after lunch). Well, will post a section of gallery by the right side of my blog. So, stay tune with me.

June 08, 2003

Time now is 2:10 A.M. I still couldn't get to sleep, I duno what is the reason that bother me for not turning into the bed. Even I lie on the bed my mind still cannot rest.

Althought I have started work for 1 week but I still couldn't figure what am I doing in office. What is my goal ? Should I replan my career and change another path ?

There is a say In Chinese, Woman scare to marry the wrong man and man scare to choose the wrong career path.

I believe I'm in this stage now.

June 02, 2003

After 9 day of no-pay leave and rest at home, I have come back to office to resume my work. At this moment, my heart is struggling, should I stick to this job or get another more challenging job which in return of better payoff. The job that available is a totally new thing to me, not a teacher, not a NF-SAF, not a manager but as a planner in the manufacturing industry.

Yes. For the past 6 years, I was in IT Industry all the while, from Technical Support to Programmer, to Web Master and now as IT Executive in Travel line. Reason for such thinking is prospect, I dun see much prospect as a IT Executive in the current line. Cause doesn't have much for me to explore (after 9 months over here).

Problem is not that I can't learn but is can I fullfill the job requirement and I like the job? The working hour is from 8 am to 6pm but maybe extend to 12am or even 4 am due to TimeZone differ.

I really need to think again, dun wan to choose a wrong path and waste all effort down to the drain.

May 30, 2003

When u step into a shower, which part of the body do you wash first?

Please select a body first?

A. Chest
B. Face
C. Armpits
D. Hair
E. Privates
F. Shoulders
G. Others

A. Chest:
You are a practical person. Straightforward and do not beat around the bush. To you, convenience is of paramount importance. You hate to be distracted when concentrating and are impatient with people who do not see things your way. A good sex partner and willing to try new things. Your best partner in life will be those who choose D (Hair).

B. Face:
Money is important to you and you will do anything to get it. Integrity and dignity is not important. You feel that friends are there to be used and life is one big hassle. Other people find it hard to understand you, but you are not concerned as to what they think. Very self-centered person. Average sex partner as too selfish and tend to be absorbed in self pleasure at the expense of your partner. Your best partner in life will be those who choose E (Privates) and G (Others).

C. Armpits:
You are a dependable and hard working person. Generally very popular person as you are very down to earth and willing to help others. Tend to get yourself into trouble as you cannot tell whether people are genuine towards you. Make very poor sex partners as you are the working type with average talent. Your best partner in life will be those who choose F (Shoulders).

D. Hair:
Artistic type. Daydreaming is your hobby, but you can achieve what most other people cannot. Dedication is lacking, but you will work tirelessly towards goals which are to your liking. Money is not important. Friends are but only intellectuals and fellow artistic types. Make the best sex partners as you are most willing to explore and please ther other partner. Talent is your main strength. Your best partner in life will be those who chose A (Chest) and E (Privates).

E. Privates:
Shy type. You lack self confidence and tend to be bullied by others. You do not have lots of friends as others find you boring and unattractive. Perserverance is not your strength and you tend to give up easily and at the first opportunity. However, you make an above average sex partner. You are able to show your true emotions to very
few people. Hence in sex, you find your inner strengths. Your best sex partner in life will be those who choose B (Face) and D (Hair).

F. Shoulder:
A born loser. You fail in everything that you do. People dislike you and you tend to spend your time alone. Your type have been known to be heavy gamblers and drinkers. You see the world as a livin hell. Money and power is also important to you. But your luck will always fail you. You make a lousy sex partner. You will find it difficult to
find a partner in life. Those who choose C (Armpits) are your only chance.

G. Others:
You are a very average person. Undoubtedly, you have your inner strengths, but people find it hard to see. You must learn to be a little bit more adventurous and see your potential. Deep down, you are very likeable person with very few faults. However, the key will be to make your strengts stand out and not just hide you weaknessess. You
are an average sex partner. You have great fantasies about different techniques, but unfortunately are not brave enough to try them out. Your best partner in life will be those who choose B (Face).

So tell me what is you choice ?

May 29, 2003

I'm rotting at home for the past few days. Really got nothing to do and no mood (cause no $ as well). But I guess the best is to look for job and stay at home (to cut my expense except on cigra.) at the same time.

Woman woman woman ...they are also a headache to the management when there is too many women in a office. This is the sceniro:

One woman by the name of VK, suppose to be on 24hr duty service and collect the laptop from office during the last weekend. When she come back on Monday, assume me in charge of laptop and throw in on my table (of course I ignore her).
Today is Friday, another woman by the name of HL, is her turn to be answering service from tonite until next Monday. And she heard from VK say that the laptop is spoil and cannot be use. She came to me and ask how to use if the laptop is spoil. Without a second thought, I ask her to turn on the laptop and try out first before conclude that it is out of service and it turns out to be perfectly fine.

She jump to the GM's room and complain that VT give wrong information and blah blah blah ...both woman being to shout at one another until my GM's face turn color.....

Sigh ~ ~ lucky there is only old man in the management team, if not World War III will starts in my office.

April 29, 2003

Yestersday my temperature reading is 36.4 and this morning is 36 degree. Why does my body temperature is lower than other people ? is it because of my mood today ? heard from someone if mood not happy, then body temp. will be lower.

Heard from people that drink beer...smoke ..can prevent or cure SARS ...wonder is it true.

Anyway, my mood is not good this morning, being complain by people say that my burger is very oily and tea is very sweet. Then you wake up early to boil the tea lah ...why wake up so late and complain, if you are not happy with her then you go ahead and teach your sister not to put so many sweets into the tea. And do you notice that someone always throw the pillow onto the ground when she lie downo the sofa and throw unuse tissue on the basin area.

I have nag enough for these days and I'm really tired all this thing, if you are scare that confronting them will make the relationship sour, then you have to blame your parents and your brothers and sisters. They have spoil her for all these year. You wan to tell me that you quarrel with her over the mirror in the morning sometimes ago, then you have to do something, if you wan me to talk to her, then you have to be mentally prepare to console her 'cause I dun give face to people who mess up my home. I'm very very tired of these, living in my own house also have to tolerate other people's living habit. And I dun like to listen to certain language that I dun understand for all this while.

I'm too tired...very tired.

April 22, 2003

My Work schedule is like these.

Work from 28 April to 9 May, then
Off again from 12 May to 16 May, then
Work again from 19 May to 23 May, finally
Off from 26 May to 31 May.

Any part time for me during my off ???


4:04PM - Latest Latest news, work 1 week, off 1 week and pay cut 40%.
3:49PM - Latest decision from the Management, all staff pay cut for 50% and work only 3 days a week. Die this time, need to find part time job in order to survive.

April 11, 2003

On 7 April, new implmentation from my company,

- All Staff suffer a pay cut from 10% to 15% depends on salary range (mine is 12%).
- Work 5 days instead of 5.5 days a week.

Yestersday, Deputy MD wants all of us to clear 50% of our leave before 15 May 2003. (I still have 4 days to clear)

Today, another pay cut will carry out.

Sigh ~ ~ ~

April 09, 2003

*sob* *sob* *sob*

No profit sharing for me as I join a bit late (This company) last year Aug. Sigh ~ ~ but the Deputy MD decided to treat me and another gals for a good lunch tomorrow to compensate us but I still prefer cash instead. Dun think me as such a materialistic but cash is really more practical and I can use it to pay my debt and bills...

Sigh ~ what to do, life is like this and times are getting from bad to worse. Wanted to get a new job also very difficult as I have backdate from IT Industry even since I join this coy.

April 07, 2003

Finally, me back in work again. Out of sudden I feel so lazy to come back to work, rather seeking for another job like GameMaster or something else.
Sigh ~ ~ time is really bad and guess now is a good time to hold back and learn more things (plan for the future).

April 03, 2003

I was being ask to stay at home for next couple for days. Reason is that my face has caught sunburn since last week. Plus I'm allegic to dust, it create rashes on neck, ear, eye as well.

Gals from office bring up the management and they decided to let me stay at home until next Monday. And I have to report my daily status to the office.

Siann....let me continue in my game. ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Just before I about to switch off my PC and pack my things to go home, my boss call me in.

He mentioned that in another Travel Agency, there was a ticketing guy used to do ticketing for years and have picked up the role of IT Support, and whenever they need manpower, he will fill in that position to support the ticketing like sales, handling customer, cut ticket as well.

The Management have the idea of putting me for course like Fare Calculation, Ticketing and Reservation course so that I can be more "multi-tasking" than now. What a good idea they can think so, in the other hand, they expand my area of work so that I can experience more things than now.....(try to create more interested environment for me)...but let me know ....are they going to give me a rise for extra job scope ...what if I fill in that particular ticketing position and they never get another ticketing guy to come in ..then I die liao.

Let me think thru ....

March 11, 2003

Just receive the confirmation from Thai Airways and Hotel from Phuket. So let me count down the days to Phuket for end of this month. Guess this is the time to celebrate my birthday oversea.

Can't blog much, notice something has happen to someone in the next blogger. Ciao !

March 08, 2003

Whole day was in SSDC (Singapore Safety Driving Center) attending my Riding Theory Lesson 1 to 4. Very tired cause 1st two lesson is talk about Traffic Rules and Expressway Behaviour.

Lesson three and four continue to talk about basic motorbike and then carry on to overtaking, making corner turn etc....and .....blah blah...

5pm back in office to monitor the renaming of domain name and un-installing the Exchange server. .....my god...now is already 8:45pm then I remember that I didn't punch my card yet. Lucky I have my taxi receipt to proof that I come in at that time.

Still have 20% more to go before completing the whole process. Finally the internet is up and my account is ready...guess have to wait another 1 hour to finish.

Ciao !

I think Blogger still have probem in updating the Template....it has been 3 days and yet I couldn't update my template in HTML coding.

Anyone had tried ? Please voice out.

March 05, 2003

Guess Blogger still have problem updating the template. Anyway, I create a photo gallery to display the photo that taken during our celebration for March Baby in my office. All food and drink are on company expense.

Wonder if there any other place to put weblog instead of blogger, since it is bought over by Google.

March 04, 2003

People often ask for an explanation of Marketing. Perhaps the following analogies will help clear it up :

1.*You see a handsome guy at a party. You go up to him and say, "I'm fantastic in bed." That's Direct Marketing.

2.*You're at a party with a bunch of friends and see a handsome guy. One of your friends goes up to him and pointing at you says, "She's fantastic in bed." That's Advertising.

3.*You see a handsome guy at a party. You go up to him and get his telephone number. The next day you call and say, "Hi, I'm fantastic in bed." That's Telemarketing.

4.*You're at a party and see a handsome guy. You get up and straighten your dress. You walk up to him and pour him a drink. You say, "May I" and reach up to straighten his tie brushing your breast lightly against his arm, and then say, "By the way, I'm fantastic in bed." That's Public Relations.

5.*You're at a party and see a handsome guy. He walks up to you and says,"I hear you're fantastic in bed." That's Brand Recognition.

6.*You're at a party and see a handsome guy. You talk him into going home with your friend. That's a Sales Rep.

7.*Your friend can't satisfy him so she calls you. That's Tech Support.

8.*You're on your way to a party when you realize that there could be handsome men in all these houses you're passing. ** So you climb onto the roof of one situated toward the center and shout at the top of your lungs, "I'm fantastic in bed!" That's Spamming.

Did you know that you can tell from the skin whether a person is sexually active or not?


1. Sex is a beauty treatment. Scientific tests find that when women make love they produce amounts of the hormone estrogen, which
makes hair shine and skin smooth.

2. Gentle, relaxed lovemaking reduces your chances of suffering dermatitis, skin rashes and blemishes. The sweat produced cleanses the pores and makes your skin glow.

3. Lovemaking can burn up those calories you piled on during that romantic dinner.

4. Sex is one of the safest sports you can take up. It stretches and tones up just about every muscle in the body. It's more enjoyable than swimming 20 laps, and you don't need special sneakers!

5. Sex is an instant cure for mild depression. It releases endorphins into the bloodstream, producing a sense of euphoria and leaving you with a feeling of well-being.

6. The more sex you have, the more you will be offered. The sexually active body gives off greater quantities of chemicals called pheromones. These subtle sex perfumes drive the opposite sex crazy!

7. Sex is the safest tranquilizer in the world. IT IS 10 TIMES MORE EFFECTIVE THAN VALIUM.

8. Kissing each day will keep the dentist away. Kissing encourages saliva to wash food from the teeth and lowers the level of the acid that causes decay, preventing plaque build-up.

9. Sex actually relieves headaches. A lovemaking session can release the tension that restricts blood vessels in the brain.

10. A lot of lovemaking can unblock a stuffy nose. Sex is a natural antihistamine. It can help combat asthma and hay fever.

Finally I finish drafting my first Access Control List for Cisco 827 (without Firewall feature) after one day reading and one day scripting.

I was thinking how to utilize my SCV Reward point (1800++)....and just recall that my house doesn't have a fix phone line. Maybe I can get this Voice-enabled Cable Modem (VeCM) from SCV with only a Basic Subscription of $9.80, 300 minutes of free local call time and usage charge is $0.007 flat rate per minute all day, per second billing.

Believe that will cut down my mobile phone charge.

February 26, 2003

Punch my card at 8:43 am this morning, compare to yestersday 9:00 AM, this is consider early. Still dun like the idea of sharing seat with stranger in a bus, but no choice, this is temporary at the moment.

Before I can get my butt down on my chair, a user reports that printer cannot print and another rush towards me telling me that she couldn't logon to network for checking email. That is how I start my day in the office.

9:30 AM, meeting with my Boss S for couple of issue like reduce paper, use email more than fax machine.....Sat need to go back to shift PC for one department......arrange meeting with vendors in the afternoon for some e-business...etc..

10:00 AM. please ...i need a smoke break...leave me alone for the time being....take my old sweet time to walk to Shell and get my favourite pack.

11:45 AM. Very hungry already...(3 slice of bread + 1 Lipton tea for breakfast)...decided to join those kids for lunch at Eng Kok for Vegetable Rice....

Be back later.

February 25, 2003

Have been taking bus for the last 2 day and I'm getting used to "stand at all time" position. Why bus are so crowded all the time, from home to work place, office to home ... at least I have to stand 2 hours a day for bus, 10 hours a week, 40 hours a month.

============================
Dear Ah Beng,

Ah Beng ah Beng, I also want to be an Ah Beng. Everyday sit kopi tiam, put leg on chair, smoke and drink. Some more always hang out in shopping centre, got char bor. Most important, no need to study. Can tell me which gang to join? If you tell me, I sure get all my kakis to join.

February 04, 2003

Today is 4th Feb 2003, GMT +8:00.

The weather out there is fine but my mood is not good. The last day for her working with me is 21st of this month. Only 17 days left. I wonder does people has ever stated a deadline for their loveship. And this reminds me from a chinese movie that star by one of the joker from Hong Kong and I quoted from him is "If there is a deadline for this love, I wish it was 10,000 light year",

How I wish she don't set a deadline to end this. And she keep mentioning to me, if I haven't went thru the ceremony with my wife on the last Dec 2002, she won't make this decision to leave me. And she say she make this decision is out of no choice.

My sadness is cannot be describe, becuase she doesn't surf net and doesn't read blog as well. Only word I can say is "very sad".
People wish me to find true love and I find it, but I can't convince her to stay with me.....

I very disappointed with myself.

February 02, 2003

Happy New Year !!!! Can you believe me working in office right now. Well well, my boss believe this traditional act as to open office on 2nd day of Lunar Chinese New Year, since me so bore at home why not joining them for some fun.

Hmm....let me check my email and play same games before "knock off" at 10 am.

Enjoy !!!!

A good theory

A lecturer was giving a lecture to his student on stress management.

He raised a glass of water and asked the audience, "How heavy do you think this glass of water?" The students' answers ranged from 20g to 500g.
"It doesn't matter on the absolute weight. It depends on how long you hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it is OK. If I hold it for an hour, I
will have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you will have to call an ambulance. It is the exact same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes."

If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later, we will not be able to carry on, the burden becoming increasingly heavier. What you have to do is to put the glass down, rest for a while before holding it up again.

Morale : We have to put down the burden periodically, so that we can be refreshed and are able to carry on. When you return home from work, put the burden of work down. Don't carry it into your home. You can pick it tomorrow.

Relax & have a good day!


ah nah hereby wish all of you a happy chinese new year.

January 29, 2003

Finally, I found that I have not done enough shopping for my grocery for this coming CNY. Hmmm where should I go ?

Guess today is not a good day, suddenly got a feeling my mood is turning very bad and storm. Feels like taking a 1/2 day off to relax myself. No mood for work, no mood for game.

Sigh ~ ~ no mood to write now. Will come back later.

========11:10 AM==========
Am I being unfair to someone ? if yes, who are they??
I always try my best to be fair and good to everyone. But why still a lot of people saying that I am unfair to them? Why?
I already try my best to be good to everyone. But why still a lot of people saying that I'm not good to them? Why?
I ready ready try my best, I'm ready tired....going to take a 1/2 day off to rest myself.

Last nite, our Curtin old classmates met up at Mr Bean Cafe for dinner and chit chat. Manage to take some digital photos. Our session ends around 11pm and I head down to Mohd Sultan to meet Chantelle, Rykiel and Robin cause Robin is flying back tomorrow...in fact in a few hours time. We have some great time and I had to went back around 1 am.

Finally this morning, I manage to get my USB port working again and connect the Nikon CoolPix 2500 to my comp. and upload my first picture of the month. It is a keychain that I bought when I went over to Perth in 2001.




The next picture is my new work station after the renovation, dun blame me for being messy cause I really very busy with lots of request and complain from users.

Out of sudden....no idea wat to blog cause need to tidy up my life. Sigh ~ ~ just thinking how to clear my remaining 3 day leave in this small island.

I just recall I was being offer a 2 way ticket from SIN to MEL at a good price of $400. But it must be travelled before end of March this year. Tempted to buy but thinking of going alone to there is too bore.

Morever, one of lady boss telling me that there will be a chance for me to go to Japan with them if they manage to organise a big group of tour to there. hee hee .....looking forward for it.

I'm back yesterday afternoon and had a bad weekend spent over there.
Went to Pub "The Peak" around 11pm, playing pool with the driver and the groups decided to switch to disco.
The disco is call "Club Coin", full of Singaporean and chicks with lots of bengs and lians.
Song is not bad just that never seen a disco playing chinese, malay songs and weird dancer on the table. and even invite a birthday boy to sing song on the stage....

Sigh ~ ~ stay around until 4 am then return to hotel with a tired leg...and guess wat...slept until around 6 am and my leg cramp...idiot...couldn't sleep anymore and decided to keep massaging my leg until 8am for breakfast.

Went around to shop for something but no mood. Manage to buy:

1) 2kg of Ka-Lapis
2) New watch belt
....ready no mood to shop.

Tomorrow me will won't be around in town. Hee hee ...take a short break to swim to another island. But will still miss my buddies over here.

Anyway wan to me buy anything from there ?

First day back to work is already an unpleasant feeling. But didn't know that a lot of things doesn't go well in 2003. I was just thinking I need to give up something in order to gain back some thing. But can it be done?

What is done and cannot be undone? I'm wrong in the first place and I wanted to say sorry. But really hope my friend and buddy can understand i have limited time with her already.

Sigh ~ wish to go somewhere and start afresh and have a time machine so that I can choose again.
