Bought a Kimmidoll - Ayame (smallest version), initially wanted to get the Misaki doll but it doesn't come in the smallest & medium size. There are altogether 18 collectible figurines ranging in 3 diff sizes.. The biggest figurine is nicer though.

Met up with Ame & Lai @ PS just now.. hmm sort of last min thingy.. haa.. went shop shop and makan. Bought some biscuits and snacks at Daiso too! Nice snackies.. haha ate some on the spot le. :) My colleague bought chocolates from there not bad too..
Hehz shopping day.. Lai bought a hard mat pillow that's comfy for her neck and head.. Ame, her favourite - pc games haa..
Think gers are forever not satisfied with their outlook keke.. ^^

Went to a newly opened Korean restaurant called "Jung" on Friday for lunch.. just nearby my office with Boss & Uncle Adrian. Especially love the "Chao Nian Gao", Good taste! Kimchi was very fresh and well mixed.. Think their cooked food is better than the shabu shabu (steamboat).. but still it's worth the try.

Here's a little something to share with all..

Feeling Better About Yourself

Some of us were born with obvious talent in some area. For the rest of us though, it can be unclear exactly what we're good at. We may go through the early part of our lives feeling mediocre or even below average, because other kids seem to have innate gifts that we don't seem to possess.

Well, we're all good at something. We're not all geniuses, of course, but we're all born with, or have the ability to develop, the aptitude to do exceptionally well in some sphere. Some of us just haven't discovered it yet. Or perhaps we simply don't recognise it as a talent.

Some of us find it difficult to feel good about ourselves also because we talk negatively to ourselves. Some of us take criticism badly. Some of us are so insecure that we rarely venture beyond what we're used to. As a result, we become trapped, not daring to try anything new, yet wishing for things to become better.

Once you've convinced yourself that you're good for nothing, it can be difficult to restore a healthy sense of self-worth. But here are a few simple things you can do to help you feel better about yourself.

Remember when you were a child playing at the beach? And you built your first sandcastle? It might have looked more like the ruins of a sandcastle, but it made you feel good. There was a sense of 'Hey, look what I did!'.

Think of ways you can feel this way again. Look around you, at home, at work; try to discover new and more effective ways of doing things. Maybe you could re-organise your space. Put up some curtains. When someone asks for your advice on something, don't see it as an inconvenience. Share your knowledge! Assemble a shelf. Try a new recipe. Maybe even create one! Paint a picture.

You don't have to announce your accomplishment to the world. Whether people know about your achievements or not is not important. The quest for external validation is what made you feel inferior in the first place.

As you try out new things, you'll discover what you're good at, or what you have genuine talent in. It doesn't have to be a grand or revered skill. Just something that gives you a sense of achievement. Cultivate that ability, and feel the joy and passion of living returning to you.

That's When I Love You - Aslyn

When you have to look away
when you don't have much to say
thats when I love you
I love you, just that way

To hear you stumble when you speak
or see you walk, with two left feet
thats when I love you
I love you, endlessly

And when you're mad 'cause you lost the game
forget i'm waiting in the rain
baby I love you
I love you anyway

'cause here's my promise made tonight
you can count on me for life
thats when I love you
when nothing you do can change my mind
The more I learn,
the more I love,
the more my heart can't get enough
thats when I love you
when I love you
no matter what

So when you turn and hide your eyes
'cause the movie made you cry
thats when I love you
I love you a little more each time
and when you can't quite match your clothes
or when you laugh at your own jokes
thats when I love you
I love you, more than you know

and when you forget that we had a date
or that look you give when you show up late
baby I love you
I love you anyway

'cause here's my promise made tonight
you can count on me for life
thats when I love you
when nothing you do can change my mind
the more I learn
the more I love
the more my heart can't get enough
thats when I love you
when I love you no matter what
ooohhh! oooooohh! thats when I love you
when nothing baby
nothing you do can change my mind
the more I learn
the more I love
the more my heart can't get enough
thats when I love you
when I love youno matter what
ooooooohhhh ooooooooooh!
no matter what


Like the rhythem.. :)

Imagine Me Without You - Jaci Velasquez

As long as stars shine down from heaven
And the rivers run into the sea
Til the end of time forever
You're the only love I'll need

In my life You're all that matters
In my eyes the only truth I see
When my hopes and dreams have shattered
You're the one that's there for me

When I found You I was blessed
And I will never leave You, I need You

Chorus:
Imagine me without You
I'd be lost and so confused
I wouldn't last a day, I'd be afraid
Without You there to see me through

Imagine me without You
Lord, You know it's just impossible
Because of You, it's all brand new
My life is now worthwhile
I can't imagine me without You

When You caught me I was falling
You're love lifted me back on my feet
It was like You heard me calling
And You rush to set me free

When I found You I was blessed
And I will never leave You, I need You

Chorus:
When I found You I was blessed
And I will never leave You, I need You oh

Chorus:
I can't imagine me without You

Gotta really clear my navition stuff ASAP! ..if not sure gonna get scolding.. things are forever piling up.. day after day.. time is really not enough.. Each day passes by so fast.. haa Serene had the same thought.. but thanks to her help, i managed to get a clearer picture of those export SO invoices. :) Now is time to get it all done.. shall put my shipments aside for the moment.. Mon will be clearing time! Chong ah..!

Had lunch with young boss @ Waraku just now.. Cindy went off le.. Serene's not free and Betty doesn't wanna eat. Haha as expected he did asked about the navition thingy.. ya that's what lao ban will always wanna know.. Asked me about my views on this new system and how well have i adapt to it bla bla... mentioned that this system is not difficult but we need time to get used to it and it's usually after a few times of hands-on..
Hmm.. it might prove to be useful in the long run.. say stock inventory will be more accurate? ..our sales person can ownself access to get details of tyres and stock balances.. but of cos that meant more work for us too keke.. heard that this system costs a bomb thus we have to ensure that the in & out stock tally.. else it'll be a headache for both warehouses when time comes for stock-taking.
These few days' entries are all about work.. ps.. guess it's similar for all when it comes to working life ba..
Okie.. time for TV, Diao Man Gong Zhu's nice.. ^^

Wanna catch "The Leap Years", "Horton" & "Di Yi Jie" leh..

Finally been to the warehouse! Heez.. @ 24 Pandan Rd. Pple working there.. Francis Ow Yeong, Lydia, Boey Choo, Ah Hai, Yusri, Ah Siew, Ching Hock, Mahendra, Sinnapan, Nava and Perumal. The 2 brothers, Xiao Ye and Xiao Yu are helping Uncle Kok Peng @ Benoi now. Hmm.. the environment is better than i expected.. We had fun.. chit chat, joke around and of cos have to do real work. My main purpose was to help enter the location in SO (Sales Order invoices) for export shipments, did help out in the rack labelling thingy, saw how Ah Hai remove the labels & barcodes on those tyres too.. tough work for those who have to deal with containers.. some more it's raining the whole day. Hmm but when all of us unite to get things done, that's the spirit. It was nice.. and satisfying when done and had our dinner after that.. Ah Siew went out to buy dinner for us.. there's mui fan, hor fun, bee hoon horfun, fried rice and hot milo! Haa.. very full cos the serving was quite huge. By the time all was done.. it was about 8pm le.. waited for Marcus (our young boss) to be back and went off together. Off to Mac @ West Coast with Linda & Francis Ow, Xiao Ye, Adrian & young boss followed up soon after. Hmm.. like the "ambience" there.. hehe sort of romantic? Keke.. just nice la.. Uncle Adrian had his dinner then and ordered additional nuggets for us too. The rest of us had some drinks.. coffee, ice tea and mango smoothie. Too full for more food.. haha all surrender liaoz.. Overall the experience was a good one! Haha initially thought of going down next Sat if poss.. cos it's my Sat off.. and so sudden i'm sort of sent there today.. keke.. :)

Haha for me.. permanently there is less possible.. cos of the travelling distance. It's a problem for me.. hehz.. too far and have to wakey very early wor.. though that's how a few of my warehouse colleagues travel everyday. Hmm.. so dun think i'll consider ba.. though no doubt today was a fun day. Working in office and here is very different i would say.. office is usually quiet during work while here.. more talking hehe.. but of cos as heard from our warehouse supervisor, at times there are quarrels and arguments too. But of cos.. being there only for a day and for a period of time is different. Oh ya.. and finally got a lift from my drifter colleague, Ivan keke.. and yeah his driving is speedy.. about 1/2 hr we got to Pandan le.. ^^

Got home about 9.45pm just now.. Linda sent Francis and me home.. drinking my yummy yong tou fu soup now.. mama cook.. Been eating the whole day.. had Mac for our lunch.. young boss bought lots of fries and a few burgers for us. Me had Filet-O-Fish. :) Work and eat at the same time lo.. cos all busy busy.. plus phone calls keep coming in.. and the Auntie there make coffee for us.. so nice.. :)
Ok... as usual waiting for my hair to dry.. then sleep.. tmr is of cos back to office. Haa..
Think the rest of our office pple should have a chance to "explore" both the warehouses. Next i hope to visit Benoi.. look for Uncle Kok Peng hehz.. okie shall see when's the chance..
Nitez lo.. Zz...zZ...z...

Thursday, March 06, 2008


Tired.. real tired this time.. work is never ending.. 9 shipments on hand.. plus import and export packing lists not yet entered into the new navition system.. trucking.. All of us are so tired and some stressed up by the learning process of this new thingy.. to my colleague, this system is more complicated as compared to the previous that they used. Serene started on the system few days ago.. so was my teacher for today hehz..

Just started creating export pack lists today.. not yet touch on imports. Time is running out.. Manager keep rushing us for this and that.. but think warehouse is worse.. much more things to be done.. all in bad mood.. People from DP Tech guiding us these few days.. Lucily for our office while Zhen Zuan helping at Pandan.. heard that he clicks well with Xiao Ye.. cos hardly meet pple from own country ba.. and Chandra hopping from place to place haa.. Think as we get to hands on more, it's not difficult but just need us to be more careful while keying in the tyre sizes and so on.. :)

Finally cleared the 5 cntrs to Benoi.. storage fee incurred is not less..
Think our young boss is planning on having another one-day roadshow for the drift.

Oh ya.. and our Genting trip.. hehz.. probably in Apr or May? Hope majority can make it. :)

Alright more work to be cleared tmr. Another new day. ^^

Tuesday, March 04, 2008


Busy day! Ha.. work work piling up again.. have to clear clear clear.. Everything wanna ASAP.. Alright, now is almost time for bed. :)

Celebrated Weihao's b'day just now. 9 of us! Lijun, Bi, Eugene, Fu An, Jonathan, Alex, Lai, me and of cos the b'day boy. We met up @ Bedok Interchange at 7pm and went to the Kopitiam nearby for our sumptous dinner.. Haa.. there are chilli crab with fried buns, butter crab, baby kailan, fried fish tofu (tasted more like fishcake rather than tofu), yam ring and rice. Hmm.. the food was not as good as being advertised on tv (HDB Taitai).. haha which was why in the first place we wanted to give it a try. But ok la.. not that bad too. :) Haha they were saying this store should also take part in the variety show whereby the storeholders are trained to be a better cook. Lolz.. but all funny cute pple gathers.. and that's sure a nice dinner! Went Mac after that for second round of drinks.. chat till about 10.30pm before we headed home. Lai and me were quite sleepy doh.. Eh.. think this dinner is on Weihao, Thks & Happy Birthday! :) All food hunters haa.. where's the next place..?

Been rushing tasks these few days.. tired.. but at least time is being well occupied.. Changing of new inventory system makes all of us busier.. more things to be done, more EXTRA work coming up haa.. Unlike the past, now we have to key in import and export details, unit prices and also to make sure the stock quantities is of 100% accuracy.. Our warehouse colleagues have to stay back almost everyday till abt 8+pm.. just to enter all those stuff.. somemore is after the 3 days of stock taking.. Time is running out.. cos the new system officially starts on Monday.. thus office pple are helping alittle too.. Eh.. and heard that the "software pple" (DP Technology) will come down on Monday to "test" us.. haha but we don't even have much time for hands-on. Well.. we will see how things go in a couple of wks lo..

Went for bak kut teh lunch @ Joo Chiat with Uncle Hock Beng and Boss just now. Wow.. so exp sia.. 3 of us $108! ... cos of the abalone.. half a can for $65! If without think it's only 40+.. But the bak kut teh was good.. the taste is stronger than the one @ Clemenceau Ave (Mohd Sultan).. In all, we ordered 3 small claypots of bak kut teh, you tiao, seasoned salted vege, glass noodles with prawns, abalone with soup and yam rice.. Next time can go back again but not with the abalone dish of cos keke.. Hmm.. alittle pai seh cos Boss always treat us when lunching with him.. haha though he will say wanna treat him or not? Hehz..
Boss said we've been here before.. just that i've forgotten. Oops.. again the signs of getting old haa..

Alright.. that's all for now.. thought of taking a nap later keke.. but seems abit late le.. tired easily these days.. Zz...zZ...z~~
