Back after so long

Very loong time never blog already.

Month of December

Under training during work by 2 RSM aka Lao Jiaos.

Getting used to the work and shifts, but heng its December people take leave so less busy.

Went IT show and got my sister a new line and myself a new phone

DOPOD D810, my first PDA Phone and most expensive after my Nokia 8250. $768 for 2 yr plan. This month pay all blow on this phone already.

Month of January

New year new begining. Burn countless of weekends, Xmas Eve, New Year Day, NY Day eve working, miss the chance to meet up with old buddies. What to do xin jiao aka new bird.

Month of Februrary.

Went Turf City to have seafood dinner with colleagues.
Really eye openers sial Long Xia Da Guo Xiao Nu Hai( Lobster bigger than a little girl). First time i saw so many different varieties of seafood. The Alaska King Crab is as big as a basketball. priced at $16.80/100g and roughly weighs 2kg

This Alsaka King costs $336. OMG!!!!
Bo Pian he is the KING.


We ordered , bamboo clams, butter prawns, KIM BA LOR( Groupa/ seabass my Fav fish), curry crab dessert i chose red bean paste.

Overall the food not bad and Mon-Fri theres a 50% off, 30% off on weekends and holidays.

Chinese New Year , but heck no more mood since Year 2000. To me its just a looong holiday.

Eve as usual do last minute spring cleaning, but prior to that did alot of stuffs cos alot of offs.

Work on the night of CHU YI. Heng nothing happen during that day if not pity our engineers.

CHU ER evening went to eat Korean steamboat at Excelsior Hotel with HRG people. The streets really damn empty sial. At the restaurant we are the only Singaporean the rest all Korean families. The food there not bad, must try their glass noodles taste like tang hoong but thicker.

After dinner went to play pool and later to Sandi house played PS2, Mahjong, Daidee.
I don't gamble so played PS2 only. Left in the morning

CHU SAN went to visit my Grandma and ate abit. After that went to my auntie house. Went there only she at home, my 2 cousins and their dad working.



Went to Sentosa Flower Fest. First time took the Sentosa express. After visitng the flower fest decide to buy a day package consisting of a few attractions costing $50++/pax still got free drinks.

Rides to try

CarLsberg SkyTower, nice 360` view of Sentosa and the city. Lasted for 10minutes
Luge - Something like boxsledge operated using the handle, no pedals to press. To move off you release the handles, to brake you pull the handle towards you.

WAH DAMN FUN SIAL!
Machiam racing , this luge can travel at top speed around 30-40, then still got a few turns make the ride more fun. Raced with Kai and overtake him dangerously LOL.

At the end of the ride, you take something like those skiers travel to the mountain peak. At the bottom of the seats they carry the Luge back.

Visted Merlion Tower nice view of the island and very strong wind, my cap nearly flew away.

Watched a 5D movie, The show was about a pirate and treasures. Why 5D leh cos got motion, and water spitting at you. E.g the pirate drop into the water, water would be splashed at you. Quite interesting i wish such movies would be implemented so it brings watching movie another level.

Yucks imagine the scene is inside toilet, sewers cannot imagine the smell.

We decided to leave the island by taking cable car to Mount Faber for a walk and another trip back to Harbour Front.

Later had steamboat dinner at home, since on the EVE mum prayed so did not had steamboat.

Happenings next phase of life.

Life had been very hectic for me

1) Working temp at OCBC
2) Job Hunt
3) Studying for my CCNA exams for my future employment
4) looking after my mum and sister
5) Running business
6) Learning driving finally


1) Everyday routine, wake up at 8am, washup, bathe had breakfast head for work. Work starts from 9am till 630pm. OCBC credit card department.

Along the way met very nice people.

Karen my direct superior, a very nice lady. Caring, friendly, understanding all the good character about her. Weakness abit too weak easily bullied.

Lance nice guy also, very gentle and understanding also, Weakness must stadnup for yourself.

Royston my OCBC buddy, one of the most interesting guy i ever meet, always had a lot of fun working. Talking lots of cock, goanna this great buddy of mine.

Joel, we always call me Xiao Ding Dang aka Doraemon. Initially when he came to work, he looked dman fierce. After knowing him awhile, found out he is also quite funny and also a food gourmet like me. But please don't eat too much chicken rice already !

Ervin, i am his smoking buddy when Earl left. A very cool guy who is Always late for work lo. He somehow resembles a celebrity, but he dislikes me saything that. Bro hope you can find a perm job real soon.

Rick very busy Boss, his HPs always ring and it irritates me! Hey drink less coke and kickapoo.

Jia Liang, also another guy with irritating ringtone. He really looks like a bunny, from a photo we took on the phone.

Noelle, very nice and friendly girl, always piah OTs so ke lianz, hope she could have more beauty rest.

Siew Mui, very friendly but quiet girl, didn't know she was a uni grad.

People who left the company

Chan, a very funny guy who was previously working in Taiwan Kinmen Island for quite sometime. Always telling us his stories.

Earl, our grade A diiamond bachelor LOL. This HK celebrity look-alike just came back from his studies in Australia. Hope you do not sleep during work anymore.

Brothers and sisters, I would be leaving the company soon and Friday, 10th Nov 2006 is my last working day. Really missed the time working together, wacking the printer and causing a toner to last 5k pages to be replaced in 2wks time. Many many boxes of printing paper being used and many paper being shred. Calling of customers and being scolded thru the phone.

Miss fighting for a place @ goldshoe market during lunch time
Goanna miss Food near CBD
Hong Lim - Wanton mee, Ipoh Hor fun, Ba Chor Mee, curry puff (nice and cheaper food, easy to find seats eating in a group but very stuffy.)
Golden Shoe - Lor Mee, Nasi Briyani (cheap and nice food, but hard to get seats).
China Sq - Mini wok (foodcourt prices but easy to find space and many varieties.)


2) Job hunt, had been sending over 40++ resumes within a few months span. So far been to 3 interviews. I really wonder how those agencies work, replying you after 2wks or even 1 month later. Thinking working in my field, I need some experience to even take up a junior position. The job scope are mostly shifts meaning working even on weekends and holidays.


3)Got to study CCNA as its a job requirement. After leaving my books for 2yrs its really hard to go back again , self-study. I am expected to pass the exam in 3 months time stress.


4) ORDed, as I am the sole breadwinner, I got alot of responsibility.


5) Really busy with things like work and study, so can't really concentrate. I know my business partners are worried about me.


6) Had prior driving license in the military, so I assumed dring a civilian vehicle is the same. WRONG, the pedals are more sensitive and travel much faster in a shorter time. Test date in March, hopefully pass just once.
