Good progress

Today is the 3rd day which I taught my colleague and it is progressing well. Tomorrow onwards, I shall let her handle and just point out any part that she missed out. Need to teach her month end closing and other minor minor pieces of work.

As today is the last day to exchange our Gold Class vouchers for movie tickets, we went to the cinema during lunch time. I thought the Friday's show open for sale today but unfortunately, we were too late and most of the seats are taken up. The Gold Class movies open for sale on every Saturday! In the end, we decided to watch "The Twilight Saga : Eclipse" on next Tuesday 6.45pm show. Hope this will be nice one.

Shall rest earlier today so that I have more hours of sleep and can be more "awake" for my morning walk tomorrow. :)

Super The BeeZee

Got up for morning walk and was so lucky that it started to rain when I completed the last round of my 2.4km walk. It was breezy today and I did not really perspired a lot.

After shower, took a short 10mins nap before prepared for work. Due to the rain, I went out late hence reached office a bit late.

Started to go through my daily work with my replacement. Intention is to let her do herself tomorrow and I will just sit beside her and guide her if she is unsure.

With whole day talking and explaining, I was so tired and thirsty at evening time. Went home a bit later than yesterday and hope by passing over my work, I can have earlier knockoff time for following days till my last day in the company.

Good Luck to me!

Busy time starts

This week I will be busy doing handover of my work to my colleague who is just appointed to take over a temporary post until the company finds a suitable candidate. She has no business background of our industry hence I need to provide some background before she can do hands on.

Just a brief overview done today and tomorrow, I will start to teach those data extraction tasks that I need to do on every morning. Shall then let her sit next to me and see how I do my work step by step for a day. After that, will let her try to do on her own and I will just supervise.

Sounds logical? Hope so lah. With short time, not sure if I can teach everything but keep my fingers crossed that everything will go smoothly. :P

Anime craze!!!

For two days, I am so busy chasing anime "Shugo Chara". Completely irresistible!!!

Currently, I had watched till episodes 44. Fast lei...

Not much to mention about today. Just upload some photos of The Guardians in their "Unlock" status.

The Guardians are : Joker ~ Amu Hinamori (Ran, Miki, Su & Diamond), King Chair ~ Tadase Hotori (Kiseki), Queen Chair ~ Rina Mashiro (Kusukusu), Ex Jack Chair ~ Kukai Soma (Daichi), Jack Chair ~ Kairi Sanjo (Musashi), Ace Chair ~ Yaya Yuiki (Pepe), Ikuto Tsukiyomi (Yoru) and Utau Hoshina (Iru & Eru).

Rest at home watching Anime

Stayed indoor whole day today. I woke up at 12noon (yesterday slept very late) and continued watching anime "Shugo Chara". This anime is cute and good. Hee hee...

Basically, I did nothing much today except watching anime and played Facebook games.

I should be recovered as I can eat anything I like now. We ordered from Pizza Hut for dinner and enjoyed the pizzas tonight as they were piping hot when they came. Fresh from the oven... Yummy...

Get Well

Finally I felt better this morning and managed to go back to work. Many of my colleagues thought I will take another day off but I can't. I still had so many things to do.

Just came home after watching "Toy Story 3". This was indeed a good movie. No wonder so many good reviews on it. It was so entertaining that made me enjoyed the whole show. Our movie started at 8.45pm. We left office at 7.45pm and had dinner at Subway. 小珠 suggested to eat at Subway as it was light and healthy. Good for me as I just recovered. We chose Honey oatmeal bread with Chicken Teriyaki and Onion sauce. It was good.

We finished our meal and went to the theater on time. This was the 2nd time we got seated before the advertisement started. Hee hee...

Glad that I am well again and hope this virus will not attack me again. Health is really important when we grow older.

Colourful "sweets"

Look at these "sweets". They are so colourful but yet awful to eat.

I had a terrible time. Was unable to sleep last night as I had diarrhea few times at midnight and vomitting too. Stomach was so uncomfortable and I could not sleep at all.

When morning came, I was so weak that I could not even walk straight and in fact, did not even feel like sitting up as whole body had no strength.

I did not go to work. Finally dragged myself to see the doctor with my mum accompanying me there. I had to walk quite a distance to the clinic and was checking where I could find toilet if in case my diarrhea comes again. Doctor said it was stomach flu and I was running slight fever.

My whole day was just laying on the bed and did not feel like eating or doing anything. I hate stomach flu. Fever did not subside until I took paracetamol. This spoilt my day. So bad!!!

Need to rest early so that I can get recover and go to work tomorrow. 小珠 bought tomorrow's movie "Toy Story 3" for me and I am looking forward to watch it.

Good luck to me!

A bit lazy

I was a bit lazy today and did not feel like working. Cannot cannot... Must not have this idea too often.

Today is an usual day with no special event happened. Reached office, clear emails, lunch, go home and watched anime.

Glad that tomorrow is Thursday and left 2 more days to go before weekend comes. This weekend, I must start to sort out my May trip's photos. My mum is waiting for us to compile them to a book. :)

New Anime - Shugo Chara!

Ai Yah! Today still no new episode for Kaichō wa Maid-sama! So sad...

However, I start to watch another anime ~ Shugo Chara! It is rather similar to Yumeiro Patissiere. There is guardian named Su that resembles Caramel. Always end sentence with です. So cute...

There are total of 127 episodes and I will watch them slowly. I like Amu Hinamori's outfit. So cool. Believe the story is good as the rating in PPS is high.

Recently not watching J-drama and concentrating on anime. Sometimes, it is good to make a switch. :)

Finally, new episodes are out.

I have been waiting since last week for the latest episodes for Yumeiro Patissier and Kaichō wa Maid-sama! Finally, 2 new episodes for Yumeiro Patissier are out today!!! Yippy Yippy...

Shall now concentrate on the newest episodes and do nothing else. Hee hee...

Tomorrow needs to wake up early for morning walk hence must try not to sleep late.

おやすみなさい

Yummy dinner

Today, I woke up and found myself like in a Karaoke. Reason being... there was a Malay Wedding at our void deck and they were singing for the celebration.

My niece did not come today as my elder sister's family went to Cameron Highland for holiday. Will be back tomorrow. I am being tasked to take care of their Facebook games : Restaurant City and Cafe World.

I was craving for the noodles my mum cooked last week and requested for another round today. She asked me not "boring meh" and I told her I can eat same dish continuously and not get sick of it if it is nice. Haha... She did cook tonight and we finished all of it. Real nice. :)

Back to work tomorrow. So fast uh...

Oven toaster

This afternoon, I went to bugis with my mum and sister. Went for prayer at the famous 四马路观音庙 before going for our lunch. We had a hard time deciding what to eat and ended up eating at Ajisen Japanese restaurant after my mum said she felt like eating the ramen.

We shopped at BHG for a while before heading towards Orchard Road. Went to Takashimaya Best Denki and bought a oven toaster. This was same model I saw at Vivo City. The staff also recommended this model as it is rather spacious to put bulky food item in for toasting.

As usual, bought my favourite donuts at B2 Food mall. Initially, I thought of buying Strawberry Shortcake from Bakerzin but they were sold out. So sad uh. Thought I can enjoy the cake tomorrow afternoon tea break at home. :(

Good time in the theater

Today I had a rather relaxing day. Not too much "stress" hence able to do my work at my own pace. I bought a cup of double chocolate ice-cream and after eating, I felt so happy. しあわせです.

Our movie started at 9.10pm and we managed to leave office at around 7.30pm. This was consider very early for us hence we could have our dinner slowly. We had dinner at LJS. It had been quite some time I did not dine at this fast food restaurant. After our meal, 小珠 and I were trying to figure out connecting to free wifi. I had problem logging in and in the end, we spent our time at the restaurant till time to go for our movie. Haha... We still thought we had a lot of time but was wasted with our phones.

When we reached the Gold Class theater, many people still not yet arrive. We adjusted our seats and I was so glad that the chair could let us laid quite comfortably to watch the screen. As we only bought tickets yesterday evening, the best seats we could get was second row fm the front. Luckily, the distance was still not so bad and I was watching the movie so comfortably that I told myself not to fall asleep due to the comfort. Hee hee.

The movie "Sex and The City 2" was good. We could see 4 main casts wearing so expensive & gorgeous clothing, ate so expensive food and stayed in such nice apartments. So envy... Some of the scenes were so funny and we laughed non stop. Good movie and worth to watch. :)

It is so different

Yesterday, whole day raining which caused to form first time "Orchard River". Today, it is completely no sign of "Orchard River" as the sky is so bright and weather is so hot! Such a great difference.

Tomorrow is Friday and we went to the cinema to book tickets for tomorrow movie. I have a pair of Gold Class ticket and the expiry date is end Jun. After checking the available movies, we decided on "Sex and The City 2". The movie duration is very long hence worth the money to watch in Gold Class Theater. Chose the 9.10pm show and hope we can catch the last train home tomorrow. :)

Orchard River???

This morning, it rained so heavily that caused flood in Orchard Road. This was unbelievable. When I first heard about this news, I thought it was just a joke until my colleague showed me some photos.

Wow... cars half emerged in water. Whole area covered with water. Restaurant chairs floating etc... These were the proofs that it was real. First time it happened so sudden with flooding at our prime shopping area.

Car owners were definitely be very upset on the condition of their cars. I knew it rained so heavily but did not expect such situation to happen. Hope it won't happen again as many people are affected. Although I like raining as it will bring down the temperature after having hot weather since last few months. :)

Will there be a new river call Orchard River in future???

Yes! I did it!

Ha ha... I really did it!

Woke up at 6.15am and went to the small park opposite my house for my morning walk. I have no stamina to jog hence can only walk. We walked at our own pace as this is our first session and do not want to overstretch ourselves. I walked for 6 rounds which is equivalent to 2.4km. Shall increase the no of rounds slowly.

However, a small setback was I had blisters on my right leg. I do not have running shoe hence wore one of my casual shoe without socks. In the end... my leg suffered. My sister asked me to "invest" in a pair of running shoe and I did. I bought a pair from World of Sport. Mizuno shoes are having promotion and I got 40% discount by using my Citibank credit card. I ensured it was 40% before I bought it. Good buy. Shall wear this new pair of shoe on Thursday morning walk. :)

My new shoe :

I must win the bet tomorrow

My sister and mum decided to start morning walk/jog tomorrow. They asked me along. Have to wake up at 6.30am and my dad doesn't think I will be able to wake up so early for the session.

Huh... I told him don't look down on me. If I can wake up at 6.30am, he will lose the bet.

Now I must ensure I can wake up on time. Otherwise, no face uh...

OMG! I am getting fat!

Today my brother-in-law went fishing hence my elder sister and niece did not come to our house. My sister wanted to let her do her revision as they are going for a short trip next week to Cameron Highland. This made me possible to sleep a bit longer this morning.

I stayed at home for the whole day and my parent fed me whole day with FOOD! Lunch was Lor Mee and tea break was Char Kuay Teow. This Char Kuay Teow was actually extra that they bought. Shared it with my younger sister and dad.

My mum cooked green bean soup too as yesterday we mentioned that we felt like having it. There was half a packet left hence she decided to cook for us today.

Evening, my mum cooked noodles with lots of ingredients. So nice and tempting that I ate 2 plates. Ai yoh!!! I am getting fatter and fatter at this rate. How uh???

I started to watch a quite old Korea drama 豪桀春香. My brother bought the vcd many years ago but I did not watch them. Recently it starts to air in SCV hence I start to get interest on this drama as the first episode was so funny. Just finished episode 9 and cannot continue. Need to rest as tomorrow needs to work.

Food again!!!

This afternoon, we decided to go out for lunch at Chinatown. We went to eat the famous 长城 porridge. Ordered mixed porridge, tofu, vegetables and gong bao pig liver. Long time never eat hence we found the food still tasted not bad. Just that we were feeling like raining after we finished the food. We were perspiring as the weather was so hot. Right after the meal, we went to the nearest shop to get some cool air-con. Ha ha...



We went to Chinatown OG for a while and took a bus to Raffles City. Robinson has sale for 4 days where GST will be absorbed!!! As we were still quite full after having a late lunch, we decided to cook Korean noodles for dinner.

Reached home and after bathing, we prepared our dinner. Korean noodles with chicken cocktails, abalone and pork ribs. Wow wow... Quite an expensive instant cooked dinner. Ha ha...

Day full of good food

Finally it's Friday. A day which I am happiest of the week.

Started with a normal working day with nothing special happened in the morning. Lunch time, my colleagues decided to drive out for lunch. Many of us were craving for Ramen and hence we proceeded to The Central to have the famous Ramen at Marutama Japanese restaurant. Usually there would be long queue and second alternative will be Watami Japanese restaurant.

Reached and found a rather long queue at Marutama hence we diverted to Watami. One of our colleague is pregnant hence we decided not to queue but to try to get seats asap. Ordered the set meal and all of us ended up very full. So satisfied.

Back in office at around 2.30pm. Totally forgot that today we had ice-cream treats from our company. I remembered only when 小珠 asked me if I wanted to eat the ice-cream at 3pm. Of course lah!!! Ice-cream!!! Haagen Dazs uh!!! How to resist??? Finally queued for it and ate 2 scoops of strawberry + belgium chocolate flavors. So satisfying... Yummy...

Tonight we watched movie "Killers". Before the movie, we went to Food Republic to have something light. We were still feeling full hence did not want to eat heavy dinner. I ordered ice-kacang and we shared 4 pcs of chicken wings + kueh tu tu. After the meal, it was just in time for us to walk to the cinema for our movie at 8.30pm.

We were a bit late as we reached at around 8.35pm. Usually it started after 20mins of trailers and advertisements. However, we were rather surprised that when we reached, the cinema was quite dark and it was showing the last trailer before the movie started (we remembered that it will always of lights off when it shows the last trailer before movie starts). True enough, the movie started right after the trailer and it was around 8.40pm. Hence, we guessed that now the grace period before movie starts is only 10min instead of usual 20 mins. Next time we have to take note of that to prevent missing first part of the movie.

This movie was a comedy plus thriller. It was funny and we did laugh on some of the parts. The ending was a bit unrealistic but at least it was a good ending for the couple. Glad that we had an enjoyable night watching this movie and reached home early at around 11.15pm.

My sister came home after me and was so surprised that I was so early. She thought I did not go for my Friday movie. Hee hee... :)

It's a sin

Oh dear Oh dear!!! It's a sin!

Look at these delicious and sinful monsters. Donuts, muffins and cakes!!! How to try to lose weight with these monsters surrounding me...

One of my colleague bought the famous muffins from Tanjong Pagar while on his way back from customer office. I consider this shop's muffins as best muffins in Singapore. I like their texture where they taste like cakes which are spongy and soft. Unlike normal muffins which are a bit hard and chewy.

During lunch time, my another colleague bought donuts from Bukit Merah Central Sweet Rings. I starts to buy from this cake shop 18 years back and the donuts are still the same. Yummy...

Next, one of our customer who came to visit us bought cakes from Sweet Secret cake shop. Their cakes are usually mousse cakes and it has been a long time that I did not eat this brand cake.

So many monsters and we could not finish so I ta bao back. Oh dear... my waistline expanding again... :(

Normal working day

Our big boss not in town. Thought we can KLKK this week but all of us still so busy working. One thing I like about my team members are, we like to say we can don't work too much when boss not around but in actual fact, no one can do that. I think we are all workaholic that is why my boss never question us if we disappear, come in late etc. He knows we will work even without him around.

Will be teaching my new colleague this week and progress is good so far. She is a fast learner and glad that she can pick up rather fast. As she is not my replacement, hope we can find a suitable candidate soonest so that I have more time to teach the new person and handover my work before my last day in the company. HR yet to let me know when is my last day hence still have to wait.

Usually staff leaving company will have lessor work to do each day approaching the last working day but to me, everyday looks the same. No feeling yet that I am actually going to leave the company. Good or Bad???

Stingray

I reached home a bit earlier than yesterday (ie 9.25pm) and managed to watch the last episode of Channel 8 9pm drama. The story was weird but strange that everyone at home still can watch till the last episode.

My dad bought stingray on Sunday and cooked it with black pepper sauce by oven toaster. The first month I ate ~~~ why so salty??? First time having such flavor. I asked my dad whether did he put salt. He said he just rubbed some and rinse with water. Should not be so salty.

I ate 1 piece and passed the other piece to him. Asked him to try if that piece was salty. True enough, it was and my dad said why it turned out this way. He did rinse them. I told him that he must have just "anyhow" rinse and still has a layer of salt stuck on the skin.

It tasted like I was eating spoonful of salt. Ha ha...

Free drinks

Our company is promoting healthy lifestyle and gave each employee a bottle of free drinks. The colour looked weird (ie greenish) but it tasted good. The flavor is apple + vegetables. I drank it in office but 小珠 brought it home. She said the colour a bit weird and did not feel like drinking it. Ha ha...

Reached home late today and did not have much time watching anime. 小珠 recommended one anime that she just finished the whole series. I watched the first episode and found it to be good. Will watch it slowly as there are a total of 50 episodes.

Currently chasing anime instead of j-dramas. Don't worry, my idols! I will be back!!!

Father's Day celebration

This evening, we had our dinner at Kushinbo at Suntec City. This was my first time there and was amazed with the selections. The food tastes good.

I ate quite a lot of the snow crab legs. Although it could not be compared with the King crab I ate in Hokkaido, they were still good. Tried a few pieces of tempura, sushi, unagi etc. Did not eat a lot but felt full after a while.

The interesting part was whenever the music starts "dong dong dong kushinbo....", everyone started to rush to queue up for the special dish. Each time, only first 25 customers in the queue will get it. My brother tried to queue up but was too late.

My younger sister was trying to get some desserts when the music started again. This time, it was special desserts. As she was just near the counter, she changed her direction and queued for it. She was the 2nd in the queue and managed to get 2 pieces of ice strawberry. My niece was so happy and ate the ice-cream. Left the strawberry skin for her father to finish up for her. Ha ha...

When the next music started, my niece was so excited and went to queue at the tepanyaki counter. She was within 25 pax but did not know why she suddenly moved out of the queue and disappeared. By the time she was back, the queue was too long and she could not get the special lobster dish.

We got to know that she mistaken that the queue was at the dessert counter and thought that she queued wrongly hence got out of the queue. However, we just let her tried for fun. :)

All of us were very full when we got out of the restaurant. It was already 9pm and since we had nothing to buy, we headed for home.

I was sitting here with full stomach. Hope it will be digested soon. :)

Dinner at Pu Tian

I woke up once at 10.30am and went back to sleep until 12noon. Very tired and my headache still haunting me. I took painkiller and it did help to relieve the pain for a while.

With my tiredness, I stayed at home for the whole afternoon watching TV programs until evening time went out for dinner with my parents and sister.

My dad came back late hence we decided to dine at Tampines Mall Pu Tian (莆 田) restaurant. This was my first time trying the food there and I found them good. The dishes we ordered were good and we enjoyed the dinner.

Tomorrow we are going to celebrate Father's Day at Kushin Bo @ Suntec City. We decided to celebrate early to avoid the crowd on actual day.

Shall now watch few episodes of anime before sleeping. :)
