the likes and dislikes
The Man and I went on our first official dinner date.
"Baby, what would you like to have?"
"Hmm...I'll juz eat whatever you buy *smile* "
He came back with Fish&Chips, 2 chicken wings, sweddish meatballs, diet coke, green tea and a slice of chocolate cake for me. (F&C, wings and diet coke - bingo)
The usual lovey-dovey feeding each other, which definitely caught the eyes of the 3-gen family seated beside us.
Until...the Man fed me with the chocolate cake
"Baby, I don't take sweet stuff... "
The father from the table beside us gave him a surprised look...must be thinking how come the bf doesn't know the eating habits of the gf...
Well can't blame the Man, its only a few hrs after he asked me to be his gf
Its through interaction and communication that we learnt more of each other...
Like I only found out he doesn't like lime until I squeeze hell lot of it on the fried prawn noodles.... I only found out after he finished everything :)

HR Policy
To all Employees: Effective January 2008,
Dress Code
1. It is advised that you come to work dressed according to your salary. If we see you wearing Prada shoes and carrying a Gucci bag, we assume you are doing well financially and therefore do not need a pay raise.
2. If you dress poorly, you need to learn to manage your money better, so that you may buy nicer clothes, and therefore you do not need a pay raise.
3. If you dress just right, you are right where you need to be and therefore you do not need a pay raise.
Sick Days
We will no longer accept a doctor's certificate as proof of sickness. If you are able to go to the doctor, you are able to come to work.
Holiday Days
Each employee will receive 104 personal days a year. They are called Saturday & Sunday. Compassionate Leave This is no excuse for missing work. There is nothing you can do for dead friends, relatives or co-workers. Every effort should be made to have non-employees attend to the arrangements. In rare cases where employee involvement is necessary, the funeral should be scheduled in the late afternoon. We will be glad to allow you to work through your lunch hour and subsequently leave one hour early.
Toilet Use
1. Entirely too much time is being spent in the toilet. There is now a strict three-minute time limit in the cubicles.
2. At the end of three minutes, an alarm will sound, the toilet paper roll will retract, the cubicle door will open, and your picture will be taken.
3. After your second offence, your picture will be posted on the company notice board under the "Chronic Offenders" category.
4. Anyone caught smiling in the picture will be sanctioned under the company's mental health policy.
Lunch Break
1. Skinny people get 30 minutes for lunch, as they need to eat more so that they can look healthy.
2. Normal size people get 15 minutes for lunch to get a balanced meal to maintain their average figure.
3. Chubby people get 5 minutes for lunch, because that's all the time needed to drink a Slim-Fast.
Thank you for your loyalty to our company. Remember we are an employer of choice and we are here to provide a positive employment experience. Therefore, all questions, comments, concerns, complaints, frustrations, irritations, aggravations, insinuations, allegations, accusations, contemplations, consternation and input should be directed elsewhere.
Regards, HR Department
If this is happening at my workplace, I'll burn the company down...

first kiss
do you remember yours?
the one that sent tingles down your spine?
the one which makes your heart beat faster and slower at the same time?
I remembered mine...
with my first boyfriend (or so they call stead back in those days) when I was 14.
the one which happened in my room,
the one which we were supposed to be revising for exams, but it ended up with both of us gazing at each other, the right moment, bringing the relationship to the next level, leaned forward, and a light touch on our lips :)
first love, hate it or love it, it was the sweetest memories you had :)

go to school
"go party" her term of going to school.
I suspect that there is a boy intersted in Princess. He came to the door, held her hands and walk her in into the class. How?
mugging...and random...
*sigh*
this quarterly mugging session is doing me no good...
pimples waiting to erupt all over my face, and my voice... damn must be the sing K session with couz during CNY Day 2.
caught Ah Long Pte Ltd, which is a crap show. Just Follow Law was wayyyy much better. Good news is I'm getting free tix to Kungfu Dunk *smile* not that I'm a big fan, but Chen BoLin looks kinda cute *blush*
Talking about freebies, lately I have "free" channels to watch on cables. Apparently on the box set at mama's room has free channels. The one at kor's room can't access at all. I hope I dun see extra charges during month end....
chat up with friends over msn this afternoon, and of coz my poor couz with his pathetic life over an exchange program at Vancouver. Huh? I thought I should be mugging hard? *shite*
I've been reading/seeing pix on the recent saga with Edison and his chicks, Damn Juicy. Picture speaks a thousand words...you only see ones true self on bed...and of coz the image that some pple work hard to portray goes down the drain without a word....
Saw IRAS letter to Daddy and yes its time of the year to file for income tax. And yah, I've been with the company for almost 2 years. I think its time for me to look for a greener field. The current one looks kinda bald, I ate up most of the grass...
Perhaps I should be like kor, slag at home for a good 2 whole month, of coz that also means that he gave up a fat bonus...its a good time for me to tidy up my room. sweep out the rots underneath my bed.
leaving for Bangkok month end, not particularly excited, but oh well, at least its not Taiwan again... the last that I went Bangkok was like 5 yrs back. It must have changed a lot. so pple, if you have nice place to recommend, please drop a msg. Can forget about clubbing. I'm going with Daddy, mama, and Princess. How to party?
VDay is round the corner and thats the worst "holiday" for singles like us *hate* CNY Day 1 morning when Daddy gave me the ang bao, he said to me "拿了这个红包，今年你最好嫁出去" Die! I thought the last that he wants me off the rack, he was kidding. This time he meant what he said! Luckily mama came to my rescue and said that I should be finding a good one. Not any Tom, Dick and Harry I also take. How can I be spared with the famous aunties attack during CNY visitng...
老天爷，你就行行好，赐我一个好男人吧!
....a recent pix of me, sing K on CNY Day 2 with couz...Its such a miracle that I wore a dress on Day 1 and a ultra short mini on Day 2. no choice, last min buys on CNY Eve...
say I'm chio

cooking
the other day I had the whole kitchen to myself, so I decided to cook wanton mee. The authentic House of Lam Wanton Mee.
If I didn't mentioned, our family had been selling wanton mee for the past 20 years. I'm so particular about my wanton mee that I seldom had them outside, coz all didn't pass the House of Lam standard.
and again if I didn't mentioned, the famous take Q no. wanton mee at Old Airport Rd hawker center is my relative. But of coz, still ours is better coz my aunty learn the ropes from them and improvise on the seasoning :)
so here I gonna show you how to cook wanton mee, and dun worry, I didn't burn down the kitchen, you people of little faith *tsk tsk*
the secret recipe of the seasoning...
its secret recipe....ok lah, since you are my dear friends, I shall reveal a little. Theres oyster sauce, dark soya sauce, soya sauce, sesame oil, pork lard, and the spicy chilli sauce.
When the water starts to boil, throw in the wanton like this...
and when its cooked, put it aside.
Next up is the noodles
our regular supplier for the past 20 years. The noodles are very Q.
When the water boils, throw in the noodles like this
stir it a little to wash away the alkaline (the yellowish gluey thingy)
Sieve out the noodle and give it a cold water bath. Thats how the noodle become Q
erm, actually you are supposed to prepare a bucket of cold water, but I'm too lazy so wash it directly from the tap also can do the job :)
Put it back to the pot and cook for another 1/2min, and its ready to be served
garnish it the wanton and green chilli (preserved by my uncle, not bought from the shelf).
In case you are wondering, how come I didn't mix it together with the seasoning, the traditional cantonese style wanton mee do not mix the seasoning when served.
Yummy wanton mee *slurp*

Pre CNY
postpostnote
I still didn't manage to keep the promise, I had yet another session last night with the House of Lam. This time I lagi clever win $$$ from the master. Oh~ by the way, my cousin compete in the recent MJ competition in SP and came in Fifth.
postnote...
just 3 hours that I declare no MJ, I had a session with Daddy, mama and kor... haha...I is clever, against the seniors, and still manage to keep my chips intact! :)
finally I'm done with my CNY roadshow and assignments are submitted, now its the big exam. Exam during the CNY period, how exciting can it get *puke*
so pple, for the 15 days of CNY, please don't date me out. No MJ, probably movies, or a nice dinner are welcome.
I'm still pretty excited with CNY every year, how not to when my home is transformed into a mini Chinatown festive market like last year, thanks to mama....
not much shopping done, except that I bought a pair of heels at $69.90 from C&K!!! Suffered the same shockness like the last pair when I was about the pay at the cashier. Whats with C&K? getting more upmarket... a blouse from Topshop at $59.90, which I think its overpriced after I paid... *duh* The happy thing is mama bought me a pair of heels from this new shop at CS... or I think I said "I'll paid her back = she sponsored" :)
the thing about CNY is the yummy food Lim Chee Guan Bak Kwa, Uncle William's pineapple tarts - Once you bite, the sweetness of pineapple come bursting out in your mouth *drool* my aunt CNY F&B package consist of "Spicy Hot Chicken Curry, crispy giong hiang, fried vegetarian bee hoon, this shishamu-like fish that we'll only eat during CNY period, Centuries favourite Salted Vegetable Duck Soup. Fwah! its like heaven spread over during the 2nd day of CNY!
how can I forgo such good spread, exam revision can start on the 3rd day :)

of work out and bulk tender
Lately, I've been thinking, maybe its time for me to be back in the mood of dance dance mania
we have got new tenant coming in offering dance class. Best thing its 2 units away from my office, obviously no reason for me not to exercise anymore.
please thank me for contributing to the GTO. *smile*
My boss realised that there are quite a handful of singles in the office. Seems like everyone is dying to get hitch. So, as and when we meet prospect tenants (mkt team), engineer, architect, landlord (ops team) or marcomm personnel (our dept) that we find suitable for our colleagues we will try to create opportunites for each other. e.g. getting subject X to sit in cross-dept meetings.
we run a full time center management office and part time match making agency. Theres even this suggestion to bulk tender all of us. Of coz the requirement and scope of work differs.
Interested parties, please colletion tender documents at our office and drop off all bids at tender box "Find a Bf/GF" latest by 1 Feb 2008, 12noon. Bid will only be consider with full documents submitted, photo is an entry requirement.
p/s: test requirements include planned program on VDay. Chocolats & flowers will be a bonus.
