ARIES MALE

ARIES MALE

When it comes to love you are aggressive, domineering, energetic and restless. You are impulsive, imaginative and dynamic, a doer, however on can never be sure what you'll do next. You can drive your lover crazy if she isn't accustomed to high energy excitement. You look for spontaneous and imaginative partners who can hold your interest and keep up to your fast pace. You can be a bed bouncer but you always expect complete loyalty from your mate. Although your temper is short lived you will explode if you become suspicious of your lover. You get jealous quickly and you need constant appreciation and reassurance in order to feel secure in your relationship.

ARIES MATE

You will not tolerate being bossed around by your mate. You hate have your space infringed upon and you can't stand it if your mate shows up late for a date. You like to be asked for advice and flattery always makes you feel important. You will never slow down and wait for your lover. It's keep up or get left behind. You match up to your sign and the remaining eleven signs as follows.

ARIES & ARIES: Temper tantrums are quite likely to erupt into major wars with this combination. Remember only one party can win and neither one will accept defeat. Passionate but problems.

ARIES & TAURUS: The Bull has trouble with your free spirited attitude. With compromise it can work. A little bit dull for you at times however it can be a stabilizing experience for you.

ARIES & GEMINI: Wonderful alliance. This is an exciting, sexual encounter that can in fact last. Both you and Gemini are so spontaneous and full of life that there is no time for either of you to become bored.

ARIES & CANCER: The Crab is far too sensitive and slow for your speedy and hot tempered nature. You will have difficulty listening to the Crabs nagging and negativity. This is really a poor match up right from day one.

AIRES & LEO: This is a most exhilarating combination. You both share the same likes and dislikes. You are both always on the go, craving excitement, love and fun. This is truly a link made in heaven.

ARIES & VIRGO: Your impulsiveness is just too much for the Virgoan. Virgo's practical, critical nature will drive you away rapidly. This is a relationship better left alone.

ARIES & LIBRA: Although opposites attract, the Scales are just a little too lazy to keep up with you. You on the other hand lack the sophistication required to keep a Libran happy.

ARIES & SCORPIO: You are both ruled by the catalyst Mars that makes this union hot and heavy. The possessive Scorpio will, however, does clash with your free spirited nature.

ARIES & SAGITTARIUS: This can be a good and a lasting relationship. You are both fun-loving and quite oblivious to the faults that might drive most people crazy. This is an exciting and adventurous union.

ARIES & CAPRICORN: Finances are the biggest detriment in this connection. You can spend it as fast as the hard working Goat can make it that drives the frugal Capricorn insane.

ARIES & AQUARIUS: This is not a bad connection. You are both inquisitive, however at times you may find it difficult to contemplate what the Water-bearer will do next.

ARIES & PISCES: Sexually this is not a bad alliance, but your temperaments are just so different that it does put a strain on the relationship. You could never handle the Fishes emotional whims for any length of time.

 

So do you think I'm Aries ?

FRIDAY'S TREATS

A nun, who badly needed to use a restroom, walked into a local bar. The place was hopping with music and loud conversation, and every once in awhile the lights would turn off. Each time the lights went out, the place would erupt into cheers.

However, when everyone saw the nun arrive, the room went quiet.

She walked up to the bartender and asked if she could use the restroom. The bartender said, "Okay, sister, but I should warn you that there's a statue of a naked man in there wearing only a fig leaf."

"Well," she said, "I will just have to look the other way."

So the bartender showed the nun to the back of the bar and she proceeded to the ladies' room.

After a few minutes, she came out and the whole place gave her a round of applause. Startled, she approached the bartender and said, "Sir, I don't understand why they applauded me for using the restroom."

"They know you're one of us, sister," smiled the bartender, "would you like a drink?"
I still don't understand," said the nun.

The bartender laughed. "Well, every time the fig leaf on the statue is lifted up, the lights go out! Now, how about that drink?"

Color Checking

Green Elephant person tend to be obstinate, and therefore are not good at having relationships.

Nevertheless, you don't get misled by circumstances, and can always be consistent. You have a strong sense of justice, and are not good at trying to pay court to others. You are better at back seat player than to come out in the front.You have a natural sense of foresight and savoir-faire.

You are diligent, and once you start, you have a strong belief to not stop until you have become a pro.

Nevertheless, you can be a maverick and once you become self conscious, you don't listen to other people and therefore tend to become stubborn. If you concentrate too much on yourself, you can spoil all your good luck. You should try to have a big heart.

You may struggle internally to make up your decision on whether to live life consistently, or act accordingly to one's own confidence and will.

When you feel anxiety, you are quick to adapt to changing circumstances. You have sharp sensitivity, and are likely to succeed in academic fields and art. And although you are not a very social person, you tend to have great academic and technological knowledge.

Being a research staff may be a good career for you.

Writing Resume

Recently, my darling and I started to update my resume and looking our value in the current labour market. I come across an article that posted in the Employment Town of Singapore.

Helpful Information for Your Job Search : Resume Writing Tips

To seize new opportunities at today's workplaces, having a well-written resume that is always ready is an important part of career action plan. A convincing resume is fundamental in attracting your potential employer's attention. Here are some tips to help you in your resume writing.

What is a resume?
A resume is a selected summary of significant facts about yourself. A resume doesn't present everything there is to be known about you. It presents selected significant facts and it serves them up in a neatly packaged summary. To write a resume, you need to know which facts about yourself are significant to a prospective employer. You need to know how to summarise them so that your next employer can see quickly why you are the right person for the job. And you need to know how to present them on paper in a concise manner.

What do resumes do?
Strictly speaking, resumes don't get jobs. Resumes get interviews. And interviews get jobs. You won't get an interview without a resume. And you won't get a job offer without an interview. But the resume is the first step to a job.

How to write a good resume?

Before you start writing your resume, it is essential that you have before you a complete and detailed summary of your education and experience. You should be aware of your aptitudes, abilities, strengths, and weaknesses, as well as interests.

Plan for at least a week and you may have to do several re-writes before your resume will be ready

Remember that you are competing with others with your resume. It is worth an effort to produce the best version you can.

Seek the opinions of others about your merits for what you have in mind

If you are too modest in describing your attributes, your application may be passed over. It is the time to boast politely and honestly

Ask at least two people to check over your final draft.

When you think you have produced the best version, be patient. Sleep on it. Read it again the next day before submitting it.

Dos & Don�t
DO!

Highlight your strengths
You probably know the saying "If you've it, flaunt it." This is certainly true on your resume. Your prospective employer should be able to see quickly what you have to offer.

Structure your resume like a pyramid
The most important things about you should be near the top. There is no formula that you have to follow in assembling the component parts of your resume, but you should start with your best features.

Be sure your resume is easy to read
If your resume is jammed with words, difficult to follow, or badly laid out on the page, no one is going to take the time to read it - even if you are a great job candidate.

Keep your sentences short
Start as many as you can with "action words"

Help your readers know what to read
Use boldface type. Use plenty of "white space" between points to make each point stand out.

Support your objective
If you have a career objective, be sure that your resume shows clearly why you are qualified for the job you are seeking.

Keep your resume to one or two pages
Most employers don't want to read more than two pages. They will read more if you are an incredibly experienced person with terrific credentials, but two-page resumes are safe.

Answer the one question that every employer asks.
Your resume must address the question that is in the employer's mind: "What can this person do for me?" If your resume can answer that question, you can get an interview - and an interview can land you a job.

DON'T!

Don't lie.
You can never make a lie work in your favour. Don't stretch the truth too far either - it will break!

Don't write long sentences
Remember that your resume will be read quickly so make it readable.

Don't put more than four lines together in one "block"
If you have more than four short lines, you are probably trying to say too much. Divide a long block of text into two points.

Don't be vague
Be as specific as possible. Include facts and figures wherever you can.

Don't include information that is not relevant to an employer
There is a good rule to follow in evaluating whether or not something is relevant: "If in doubt, leave it out."

Don't list a reference unless you have the person's permission
Of course, it's important too to know that you will get a positive recommendation!

Part I ~ end here ... next post will talk about Resume

What is luck

I come across this article and thought it would be good to share with everyone.

The below text is very interesting. I suppose all of us know deep down about this fact but perhaps its just one of our numerous blind spots in life?

Why do some people get all the luck while others never get the breaks they deserve? A psychologist says he has discovered the answer.

Subject: The luck factor!
By Professor Richard Wise man, University of Hertfordshire

Ten years ago, I set out to examine luck. I wanted to know why some people are always in the right place at the right time, while others consistently experience ill fortune.

I placed advertisements in national newspapers asking for people who felt consistently lucky or unlucky to contact me. Hundreds of extraordinary men and women volunteered for my research and, over the years, I have interviewed them, monitored their lives and had them take part in experiments.

The results reveal that although these people have almost no insight into the causes of their luck, their thoughts and behavior are responsible for much of their good and bad fortune.

Take the case of seemingly chance opportunities. Lucky people consistently encounter such opportunities, whereas unlucky people do not.

I carried out a simple experiment to discover whether this was due to differences in their ability to spot such opportunities. I gave both lucky and unlucky people a newspaper, and asked them to look through it and tell me how many photographs were inside.

I had secretly placed a large message halfway through the newspaper saying:

"Tell the experimenter you have seen this and win #250."

This message took up half of the page and was written in type that was more than two inches high.

It was staring everyone straight in the face, but the unlucky people tended to miss it and the lucky people tended to spot it. Unlucky people are generally more tense than lucky people, and this anxiety disrupts their ability to notice the unexpected. As a result, they miss opportunities because they are too focused on looking for something else.

They go to parties intent on finding their perfect partner and so miss opportunities to make good friends. They look through newspapers determined to find certain types of job advertisements and miss other types of jobs. Lucky people are more relaxed and open, and therefore see what is there rather than just what they are looking for.

My research eventually revealed that lucky people generate good fortune via four principles.

They are skilled at creating and noticing chance opportunities, make lucky decisions by listening to their intuition, create self-fulfilling prophesies via positive expectations, and adopt a resilient attitude that transforms bad luck into good.

Towards the end of the work, I wondered whether these principles could be used to create good luck. I asked a group of volunteers to spend a month carrying out exercises designed to help them think and behave like a lucky person. These exercises helped them spot chance opportunities, listen to their intuition, and expect to be lucky, and be more resilient to bad luck.

One month later, the volunteers returned and described what had happened. The results were dramatic: 80% of people were now happier, more satisfied with their lives and, perhaps most important of all, luckier. The lucky people had become even luckier and the unlucky had become lucky. Finally, I had found the elusive "luck factor".

Here are Professor Wise man's four top tips for becoming lucky:

  1. Listen to your gut instinct -they are normally right.
  2. Be open to new experiences and breaking your normal routine.
  3. Spend a few moments each day remembering things that went well.
  4. Visualize yourself being lucky before an important meeting or telephone call. Luck is very often a self-fulfilling prophecy.

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.

Hope on that day the currency exchange rate will be better so that we can have cheaper lobster, seafood and beer.

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

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.

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

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).

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 ....

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.

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 !

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.
