Awesome weekend.

Had a just enough dosage of sun and fun.

I love my life right now. (till 0700 Monday)

BOH-nus is here!

My much-awaited bonus is HERE!!!

I think most of us were shocked at the amount. The previous FY was not as fantastic as 2 FYs ago but surprisingly, employees were very fairly compensated. With the Gen-Y trend of job-hopping the frustration of employers here, I think the MOST effective retention methods is still monetary compensation. You can bring up employee engagement, dialogue sessions, family day, building up a sense of belonging, coffee machine in the pantry... they make one comfortable (or less jaded, depending the way you want it) but sorry, monetary compensation is what keeps people going. I feel la.

At least it sort of compensates for the long hours I've put in at work over the past 1 plus year. At least I feel that my efforts are appreciated. But now that the bonus is here.... I can't wait for the next one =P

I did not have any needs or wants but I think here's what I plan to do with the extra ka-ching, albeit it ain't alot la:

• Invest in stocks. A couple of lots, maybe.


• Top up my unit trusts.


• A pair of loafers (Pedro FTW)


• 2 tailored shirts


• 1 working pants


• Changing to a new phone in September (Ericsson Xperia ARCCCCCCC)

Wow. That brings me back to zero. lol.

Ok, now to find the time to do the above... my weekdays have been hectic, weekends filled with activities. Not that I'm complaining though - I think my life's quite enriching =)

Sentosa on Saturday, tennis on Sunday.

1) Leadership Qualities
2) Creativity
2) Communication Skills.

Fully composed song.

外面下的雨
提醒了我爱你
看着那一点一滴
都带着你的消息

望外那天空
吹着刺骨冷风
我闭眼紧握双手
却抓不住一丝温柔

你是否还记得
街角咖啡厅的温热
窗外人群似你乱杂的心情
你我的思绪无焦距肆意飘零

望外那天空
吹着刺骨冷风
我闭眼紧握双手
却抓不住一丝温柔

你是否还记得
街角咖啡厅的温热
窗外人群似你乱杂的心情
你我的思绪无焦距肆意飘零

不在渴望以往的温柔
从此放手让你自由
只恨脑海里的甜蜜憧憬
是废墟 是背弃 是触景伤情

你是否还记得
街角咖啡厅的温热
窗外人群似你乱杂的心情
你我的思绪无焦距肆意飘零

Ohce ka!

I was conversing via SMS with my Sec 2 student. She asked whether I had unlimited sms.

I told her yes!

Her sms reply beeped. She asked, "Your parents let you sms so much?"

HAHAHA I find that really amusing.

Awesome weekend!

Had been dyingggggggggggggg for the weekend since the start of the week. It had kinda been like a mirageeeeeeeeeeeee omg cos I was so tied down with work, I had nooooooooo lifeeeeeeee. And the weekend was gonna be packed with activities; that made me look forward to it even more!

So on Friday night I met my friends for dinner then somehow we found ourselves at Dempsey's! Had beer and wine and a real intriguing discussion.

On Saturday I napped the afternoon away, SHIOKS!!!!!! Then took the KTM to ohmygoodnessme Choa Chu Kang! But the journey didn't matter cos like 取西经 - the end result tastes sweeter when you actually have to plough to achieve it!

STEAMBOAT FTW!!!!

Had loads of fun cooking and eating and chatting and joking with the bunch of Club peeps! As the evening went by people left the table one by one cos were too full to carry on, but on my side were 5 无底洞 still going strong! Wahaha, we even introduced whatever was left in the rice cooker, and double-boiled it in the soup! Added streaks of crab stick meat, pork belly, egg froth and some garnishings - only lacked century egg and 柴鱼 to reach real divinity! The porridge turned out to be heavenly! Real natural sweetness from the 高汤 and every grain of rice tasted lovely and full of motherly love... haha... everyone who came over to try was like "mmmmmmm!" Thumbs up.

My Sunday was a real relaxing one and I felt like I really needed the rest. Spent most of the time slacking at home and caught X-Men with my siblings. Great movie.

And it kinda inspired me to be different.

Keep your lives going, guys!
