Brand new office!



OK, that is the ugliest writings on a cake that i've seen so far. But it was too late when we realized it, oh well. It was just a symbolic thing to cut the cake after all and no one will care about it when they started eating them.

Ahem. *knock*knock*knock*

We have finally moved in to the new office @ 8 First Avenue today!! Welcome everyone!

And that also means from now on, i have to drive further to work. One hour at least... left home around 6:55am when some of my colleagues are still sleeping in their bed. So if i would like to start work earlier at 7:30am, then i would have to leave home about 6:30am. Oh my gosh.

Since morning, everyone was so busy unpacking all their stuff from the boxes. Dusting the table, putting away the plastic covering the chair, setting up the telephone, and not to forget, decorating their new cubes. It was nice seeing everyone in such a happy mood. But just one thing, the air cond is very very cold here.. and everyone now realised how cold i was when i was in my old cube.. haha.

It was a fun but non-productive day at work for me. Hope my boss dont mind and realised that i am doing all these for the sake of the company! :)

Bowl a turkey..



That is probably the first time after so long that i have gotten 3 strikes in a row in a bowling session. I got a turkey flashing its butt on the TV screen, but it was wonderful! And i actually like it.. :)

But that wasnt the best score of the nite. My team members were all doing very good. Even without a turkey, they can still overcome my score. I am still happy tho. After all, they are guys! They are supposed to have more strength to roll down all the pins. They weigh 30 kg more, as a matter of fact (i think).

So as the games became more excited with everyone performing really well, we decided to make a bet with the other team. Take the total score of two games - which team has the higher score wins. The loser has to treat the winner a meal of teh tarik and roti telur.

Yea, the bet is on and the pressure is on too! We screamed and cheered. Almost everyone in the bowling center is looking at us, wondering what was happening. Talk about getting in the center of attraction. Oh my gosh.

And to top it all, whenever the guys score a strike, they danced.
Yes, you heard me right.
They shaked their bon bon in front of everyone.
-__-
^_^

I almost die laughing.

I live and work with a bunch of jokers. I have a fun life. (if you are not, just try to chant this over and over until you go to sleep tonite). Haha.

The bowler of the nite was Eddy for scoring a homerun (4 strikes in a row) for a total score of 169. Bravo! Bravo!

And the dancer of the nite goes to Eric! Check out his cool look.. :P



Thanks for all the support. We will see who can beat Eddy's record next time. Did i mention that my team won the bet? I got a free treat. *yay*

BTW, it is 20072007 today. 20 July 2007. What a special day, and i am still working in the office at this hour. Great..

Congrats Mei Yee and Samuel!

For the past 2 years, I have been receiving a lot of wedding invitations from my relatives, colleagues and friends. Is it a sign that i am getting old? That this is the time that i should really get married and build my own little family? Once, my cousin sister told me that the ideal age for a girl to get married is between 25-28. She gave me a bunch of reasons to support herself, and i actually agreed with her too. Not that i am eager to get married, but when u are 21, having your own family at age 27 for example, seems to be fair enuff.

I thought ..
i would have achieved a lot by then,
i would have dated a lot by then,
i would have earned a lot by then,
i would be quite old by then...

But that is all simply naive and innocent. Now alot of people started to consider about marriage at a later age because there are other more important stuff to stress about - how to survive in a fast pace life in KL. -__-

Anyways, the main goal for my post today is to congratulate my uni friend, Mei Yee for her happy marriage to Samuel (oh boy, i didnt know i am so good at diverting my topics). I have known both of them for 6 years now, and they are still the cutest couple like they were back then.



Attending her wedding dinner was something that i have been looking forward to so much. I met a lot of my uni frens, some of whom i havent met since i've graduated. Gosh, i cant believe how some of them have changed - becoming someone's husband/wife and even daddy/mommy.

I am so glad that we made it to the dinner. I missed u guys a lot!

p/s: i am going to be a godmother soon. oh geez, i am so happy.. come here baby!

A bit of old times..

I was looking thru some of the stuffs i brought back from my old house yesterday, and i found this very old letter that i received when i was still in Uni. It was a thank you note for being a volunteer in one of the welcoming programme for the juniors. It goes:

To all the helpers of Welcoming Programme,

Greetings from us. How are you? We hope you are doing well. And how have your holidays been?

This is a note to say a BIG THANK YOU for being a part of Welcoming Programme family as a helper. We really appreciate that you are willing to give us a hand. One HELP means a lot.

Here's something to ponder on.

One SONG can spark a moment
One FLOWER can wake the dream
One TREE can start a forest
One BIRD can herald spring
One SMILE begins a friendship
One HANDCLASP lifts a soul
One STAR can guide a ship at sea
One WORD can frame the goal
One VOTE can change a nation
One SUNBEAM lights a room
One CANDLE wipes out darkness
One LAUGH will conquer gloom
One STEP can start a journey
One WORD can start a prayer
One HOPE will raise our spirit
One TOUCH can show you care
One VOICE can speak with wisdom
One HEART can know what is true
One LIFE can make a difference
One IDEA can change the world
One SONG can spark a moment

Wishing you a good day and may you have a wonderful semester ahead.


Seriously, i couldnt remember what i did as a volunteer at that time. Was i involved in taking care of the newcomers in their dormitories? Was i involved in organizing the activities to help the newcomers feel like at home? Was i one of the people who provide advices on studies and also surviving skill in a new place? I have no idea at all... cos i've done all those above.

And sitting together with this letter was a small handmade Christmas songbook. As i flipped open the pages, memories came flashing in my mind. Yes, it was our song book when i took part in a Christmas Carol one year, while i was away from home studying in another state. For those who know me well, there is no surprise that i love to sing and dance. So it is a natural thing for me to join the carol. It was fun, i get to meet with a lot of new people, new friends and new experiences. And that was when i learned how to play the guitar (for a while - but i dunno how now).

The Christmas bug just hit me... :)

Just how much is the competition between two friends?
