Back to work - part 2

After the relaxing first week back at work, the second week has past.... it has been a busier week since i was plotted for work for another unit for the first 3 days....... hehz... I didn't really enjoy doing the work for another unit as I do not have any understanding of the entity and I had to help draft accounts in 2 different countries' (M'sia and HK) reporting standards..... hehz..... it's not easy and as i'm performing as another function..... i dun have any to help me.... my direct boss is the manager who is always busy and refers me to ask the clients or to settle myself since he says he's perfoming another function and he cannot review my work... hehz... so it was a sianz three days..... Anyway, I hope that the job will not come back and haunt cos i dun like it....

Anyways, for the next two days... i was busy helping to shift leadsheets for the next big job in the december year ends...... so it was relatively ok... but it was tiring on the hands and the eyes cos have to check the numbers and to shift using the mouses and various keyboard shortcuts.... and maybe insert new columns and change the dates.... but anyway... on friday, it was the department trip to tioman over the weekend... but being AS (as called by GHT)..hahaahha or rather I thinking it as being too troublesome that I didn't want to go to the trip.... hahhaha.... Ok... I know people is going to say that it's a lousy excuse..... but it's true...hahahah.... don't you think it's tiring and troublesome plus u have to work on Mon when you come back in the evening time on Sun after at least 7 hrs of traveling back......geez.... if the trip were part of the long vacation plans... i would have gone....hahahah...

Anyways, next year when my bf graduates... we'll both go on graduation tour ba... but haven't decide on where to go.. but guess we're both ok with touring asia... but then not japan and korea ba since my bf haven't started working yet....hahahha..... well, there's still quite some time before this actually materialise.. so we'll see where we go ba...hehehhe....

Next week will be first 3 days of training again.... yes... at least dun have to work late or go home late.... but need to be early and on time.... hehehh... which i am doing ok.... heheh....

My first week of work after the holidays

My first week at work was rather relaxing since i had trainings for the first 4 days and on friday was the annual community day at the company. Training was ok and beneficial... think i'll be able to perform my job with more understanding... haha... but as to it'll materialize... we shall see ba...hehehe

The more interesting event was the Community Day, this year was held at the Zoo and this year our unit's beneificiary were kids.... and it was 3 of us to a kid.... heheheh... though it seem that our work maybe lightened with the 3 of us... but it was still tiring... servicing our little "emperor"...hahahha... though there were possibility that we had to do the second shift..... in the end, there were enough people to handle the second shift of kids... so we were able to leave the zoo and proceed on to our next event (last minute decided), a KTV session. This was the first time i sang with connie, Manfred, WNS, Audrey.... together with RP and JP...hahaha... Have heard that WNS was able to sing and it does seem so when i heard him sing...hahahh.... but as i had a dinner date with my bf so i left early after singing 2 hrs of songs...hehehe.....

Next was the dinner date with my bf.... as we weren't hungry at first so we went around the amk centre vicinity... our first stop was tenchi comic shop...aim of shopping: to see if there's any dvds for slam dunk cos the current vcd versions seem to be spoiling with some episodes being not playable, next was to see if there's any copy of the character guide for Getbackers and also for Shaman king, and also to check out the price of the large version of the Slam dunk comic book. But in the end, there was no comic books nor dvds.... however, i got the prices for the slam dunk comic that i was looking for but it's gonna cost me $324 to collect the entire collection of 24 volumes @$13.50 each. This is something i need to consider first.... Dinner was later settled at Ramen Ten which both of us have enjoyed spicy ramen... i was enjoying my chicken katsu tom yam ramen..hahhahha my boyfriend was saying how i enjoy spicy and sour stuff...hehheeheh....Next while wondering around, there was a game shop and the games sold there were at a reasonable price.... i saw and i bought my 3rd ds game: Bleach: Souten ni Kakeru Unmei.... it's mainly game play involving during the period where Ichigo and friends goes to Soul Society to rescue Rukia.... hehehe... i bought it at $75 which i thought was reasonable since it was japan import meaning the instructions and words in the game were all in japanese. But since it's an RPG game and i know the story... guess it won't be that difficult how to play the game.... anyway, i think there will be online guides that other players who may contribute to give aid to how to complete the game... heheheh....

My 3rd DS game:

Final day of vacation

Hehz.... All good things will end someday and today is the last day of my long break....hehz.... when will i get the break again?? in another year's time mah?

Haiz... pinch me again... still in a vacation mood.... luckily for the first week back to work, i'll have trainings and also the company's community day... which i dun have to do any actual work yet...hehehe...that's a good thing in disguise though.... hahhaha... hmm... a review of the things done so far during my vacation:

1. Been to East Coast Park once for a short tan but in the end the weather didn't permit a tan...

2. Bought my DS lite icy blue together with 2 games: Brain age and Puyo puyo fever which came as a free game bundle with the console,

3. Baked my first cheese cake which was really too sweet hahahah since i followed the recipe which made use of condensed milk and cream cheese....

4. Went for a dip at the safra swimming pool which really was a long time since i've been to the pool....probably nearly to a year or so

5. Met up with my uni jap classmate who is going to go to manchester for her overseas exchange programme...

6. Been back to the uni to look at the carnival which is the usual event during the first semester of the academic year.... but it seems that the carnival this year is not really good and there seems to be fewer stalls than the prior years....

7. Cleaned up my messy room... though it still not yet fully cleaned up yet but it's still cleaner than before ... haahhahahh.... to think i spent almost 5 days cleaning up my room is really.... arrgh... Don't want to think about it......

8. Been to Mei's new place...wow... condo has quite nice facilities ne....hahahha....but the place is slightly far from my place ne...

9. Watched the national day parade at home with bf and family.... Yupz... it's definitly the fireworks that makes it exciting...

10. Had a dinner celebration with my bf for our anniversary at Billy bombers... the servings are really huge...haahahh

11. Oh yah.. i dyed my hair too...hahah... the whole head and not highlights... wonder if anyone paid attention to my hair...hahaha

12. Been to the treetop walk... it was quite a treacherous walk ne.... lots of stones and all.... plus me a bit scared of heights so the tree top walk was kind of scary for me.....

13. Been to the Ikea clearance sale... there are lots of ppl who buy quite a lot of things ne..... and things were considered cheap ne.... also discovered that there are shuttle services provided to certain areas on weekends....

14. Rented and watched a jap drama which i haven't done in some time... hahah the drama starrs YamaPi and Esumi Makiko....

15. Lastly, the last event of the vacation was a cycling trip at Pulau Ubin... which was really torturous to the butt as there were trails which was really rocky and plently of up slopes and downslopes that fully make u exercise ur legs...wonder if my legs are done.... hahahah.. after the trip was a delicious tze char dinner at tampines at one of the coffeeshop which Cinn and John introduce....ehhehe...

After reviewing the events, it seems that my vacation was still not bad...hahhah.. considering that i did not go overseas.... hehehh... but i'm alright and as promised with my bf... we'll go on his graduation trip next year when he graduates....hehehe.....

My DS Lite - ICy blue

I finally bought my ds lite on monday.... never thought i would buy my gadget at Funan...hahhaha... I thought generally that stuff sold at those big malls especially malls in the central area would be more expensive.... but it seems that there are exceptions...hahahha..... Anyway, i bought my set bundled with a free game.... but there are very little choices for the games to be bundled together.... hahaha... so i guess it's ok ba... at least i picked a pricier game...hahaha... Anyways.... cos of the new game that ihad, i finally learnt how to play sudoku... though i'm still not good at it... but at least know what's happening...hahahhah....
Below is a pic of my ds lite:

My DS Lite - Icy Blue

Gathering at Mei's house

Well, need to say thanks for the trouble that Mei went through to provide with very detailed directions to her house but we still got a bit lost...hahahah... and also for the tremendous amount of food she prepared for us.... hahhah... the pasta is quite nice... but may need to have more sauce ba and more cheese....hehhehe...

It's a pity that Nana could only stay for a while and after sending Nana to her bus stop, the rest of us had a mini tour around the condo. Guess the "attraction" or the fun at the condo was the playground (rather the mini gym station for the elderly).... hahahah..... Can this be considered childish or does it seem like we're getting older??? hahahah.... Anyway, after the mini tour, we got back to our table set up at mei's place for the mahjong game.. which unexpectedly i turned out to be a winner....hehehhe.... and later on we got bored of the tile games and went on to play the game "A**h*** 大老二"....which was really a demonstration of "the rich getting richer, and the poor gets poorer" with the rules in place.....hahahah....

Anyways, Mei's place is quite cosy i think.. hahah.... considering that it's only her and her parents staying together.... though the location is situated on the northeast line and is nearer to Little India which may not be really convenient to go home or access on Fri and weekend nite times.... heeh... other than that, think the facitilites are not not bad..... ehheheh.... well... it's a bad choice to stay in a condo... but i guess i'll still stick with my ideal HDB home ba...hahahhah.....
